Ozone Park Market Data
Current market conditions and pricing trends for Ozone Park, Queens, NY.
Single-family, condo and co-op homes are measured separately — these medians are never blended together. Based on 149 recorded closings between Oct 6, 2025 and Oct 6, 2026 — a settled trailing twelve months, ending about a month back so late-recorded closings are counted rather than missed. Days on market are medians, not averages. A property type with fewer than 8 closed sales in that window is left out rather than published on a sample too thin to mean anything.
Single-family prices in homes with an Ozone Park mailing address in ZIPs 11416–11417 are unchanged year over year, comparing 59 sales in the 12 months to October 6, 2026 with 72 in the 12 months to October 6, 2025. Over the past 2 years, single-family monthly median sale prices in Ozone Park (ZIPs 11416–11417) have ranged from $662K to $823K.
What This Means for Sellers
Ozone Park reads as a Buyer's Market: about 6.1 months of single-family supply, and homes sold in a median of 38 days over the past 12 months. Pricing and presentation carry more weight when buyers have more homes to choose from, and recent comparable sales for your specific home are what its asking price is weighed against.
What This Means for Buyers
Buyers have more leverage in Ozone Park right now. Take advantage of the increased inventory to negotiate favorable terms, but don't wait too long — homes in desirable locations can still move quickly.

Is Ozone Park a good place to live for commuters?
The LIRR connects Ozone Park to Penn Station and Grand Central Madison in approximately 14 min, and the neighborhood carries a transit score of 85/100. Peak express service, station parking and walk-to-station distance vary by address, and those three factors decide what a commute actually looks like day to day.
What are property tax trends in Ozone Park, NY?
Ozone Park homeowners pay a median of approximately $5,700 a year in property taxes — the median of the tax figures actually recorded on homes sold here, not an estimate. In New York City, property taxes support citywide services, including public schools, police, fire protection, and infrastructure. Unlike Nassau and Suffolk counties, NYC does not impose separate school-district, town, or village property-tax levies. Taxes are assessed parcel by parcel, so two similar homes on the same street can carry very different bills — confirm the actual assessment on a specific address before relying on it.
