Who has cut their asking price
567 of the 1,534 Queens coops for sale are asking less than they originally asked — 37.0%.
Queens condo sellers cut less often — 26.0% of the 933 on the market. The two boroughs run opposite ways on this: in Queens it is the coop sellers who cut more often, and in Brooklyn it is the condo sellers.
A coop counts as reduced when its current asking price is below the price it was first listed at — the seller's own two numbers, not an estimate and not a comparison with other units. Updated daily from the OneKey MLS feed.
How often Queens co-op listings don’t sell
1,578 of 4,062 Queens co-op listings that ended between October 2025 and September 2026 expired or were withdrawn without selling — 39%.
- Co-ops39%1,578 of 4,062
- Condos59%1,511 of 2,562
- Houses37%1,752 of 4,707
Here co-ops fail to sell about as often as Queens houses (37%), and less often than Queens condos (59%).
Share not selling, month by month
Direction: falling — 35% over the last three months against 41% over the first three.
How this is measured
Counted as listing attempts, not homes: a home that is relisted counts again, though within the year that averages about 1.1 attempts per home here. A listing counts as not selling when it expired, was canceled or was withdrawn; homes taken off the market only temporarily are left out.
The MLS does not record why a co-op sale fell through, so these figures cannot say how many deals ended at the board rather than before it.

Queens Coop Questions, Answered
What is the coop board approval process in Queens?
After a signed contract, the buyer submits a board package — typically a financial statement, tax returns, bank statements, reference letters, and the purchase application — followed by a board interview. Boards can decline without stating a reason (subject to fair-housing and other anti-discrimination laws). Timelines vary by building. A well-prepared package is the single biggest thing a buyer controls.
What happens at a coop board interview, and how should I prepare?
Most boards interview after reviewing your financial package — usually a short in-person or video meeting with a handful of board members. Expect questions about your finances, why you want to live in the building, and how you'll use the apartment; boards are gauging fit as much as qualification, and they cannot legally ask about protected categories like family status, religion, or national origin. The best preparation is a clean, complete board package beforehand — interviews go smoothly when there's nothing left for the board to ask about.
What does coop maintenance actually cover?
Maintenance is your monthly payment to the coop corporation, and it is one bill covering several things at once: the building's property taxes, your share of the underlying mortgage if the building carries one, staff and day-to-day operations, insurance, and contributions to reserves. Because the property taxes sit inside it, a portion of your maintenance is typically tax-deductible — your accountant can tell you which portion for a given building. The current maintenance figure appears on every coop listing we show. One note if you are comparing against condos: a condo's common charges exclude taxes and any underlying mortgage, so a coop maintenance figure will look higher for the same apartment without actually costing more.
How much do I need to put down on a coop?
Each coop building sets its own minimum, and it is a building rule rather than a lender rule — so it applies even to a buyer a bank would happily approve. Of the 755 co-op corporations whose minimum down payment we have confirmed from MLS listings, 72% require 20%, 18% allow 10%, and 9% require 25% or more. Some also require post-closing liquidity — months of mortgage and maintenance held in reserve after closing — on top of the down payment. We publish the confirmed minimum on the building pages where we can verify it, and confirm it listing by listing otherwise.
What debt-to-income ratio do coop boards look for?
Many boards set a maximum share of your gross income that your total housing costs and debt payments may take up. The threshold, and how strictly it's enforced, is set by each building. It's a board policy, not a lender requirement, and it's worth checking before you fall for a unit that a particular building's math won't support.
What is a post-closing liquidity requirement?
Some coop boards require you to keep a set amount of cash or liquid assets, measured in months of mortgage and maintenance payments, in reserve after your closing costs and down payment are paid, as proof you can weather a job loss or emergency without falling behind. It's on top of the down payment, not part of it, and requirements vary widely by building.
What is a sponsor unit, and can I buy a coop without board approval?
A sponsor unit is an apartment still owned by the entity that originally converted the building to a coop, rather than by an individual shareholder. Sponsor sales commonly skip the financial-package-and-interview process a resale requires, though the sponsor may still have its own approval or financing conditions, and house rules like sublet limits still apply once you own it. Sponsor units are worth asking about specifically if board approval is your biggest concern.
How can I check a coop building's finances before buying?
The board package process gives you access to the building's financial statements, board meeting minutes, reserve fund balance, and any pending assessments or litigation — an accountant or attorney can spot warning signs like thin reserves, rising underlying debt, or deferred maintenance that a listing description won't mention. This is exactly where having an attorney's eye on your deal from the start pays off, rather than discovering an issue after you're under contract.
What is a flip tax and who pays it?
A flip tax is a transfer fee charged by the coop corporation when a unit sells — commonly a percentage of the sale price or a per-share amount. Who pays it is set by the building's rules and the contract, and it varies by building. It belongs in any serious net-proceeds estimate, which is why our seller conversations start with the building's actual rules.
Can I sublet a coop apartment?
Only if the building allows it. Sublet policies range from prohibited, to allowed after a minimum period of owner occupancy, to allowed with board approval and fees. If rental flexibility matters to you, the proprietary lease and house rules need to be checked before you make an offer — not after.
Why are coop monthly charges higher than condo common charges?
Coop maintenance usually bundles the building's underlying mortgage and property taxes along with operations — condo owners pay property taxes separately. So a coop's higher monthly number is not automatically a worse deal; part of it may also be tax-deductible. Comparing a coop and condo fairly means comparing the all-in monthly cost, which we break down for every listing we work on.
