Corona Market Data
Current market conditions and pricing trends for Corona, Queens, NY.
Single-family, condo and co-op homes are measured separately — these medians are never blended together. Based on 140 recorded closings in ZIP 11368 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 ZIP 11368 are up about 10% year over year, comparing 19 sales in the 12 months to October 6, 2026 with 12 in the 12 months to October 6, 2025.
Of the 150 homes for sale in Corona today, 51 are now asking less than they originally asked — 34.0%, against 35.3% across Queens. 5 sellers have raised their asking price.
And among the homes that actually sold
Among the 133 homes that sold in Corona over the last twelve settled months, 33.8% had cut their price before they sold — up from 27.1% over the same twelve months a year earlier.
What each group got
Over those same twelve months, the 88 Corona homes that sold without ever reducing achieved 96.5% of their asking price in a median of 40 days. The 45 that did reduce achieved 88.1% of what they first asked, after 125 days.
Homes that never reduced and homes that did are different homes, priced differently from the start — these figures describe what each group did, not what a reduction causes. How any individual home performs depends on condition, layout, its position within Corona and how it shows, none of which a market median can capture.
Measured from the OneKey MLS feed, updated daily. A home counts as reduced when its current asking price is below the price it was first listed at — not against an estimate or against other homes. The for-sale figures describe homes available today; the sold figures describe closed sales between October 2025 and September 2026.
What This Means for Sellers
Corona is sending mixed signals: there is real inventory on the market, yet homes are still selling at or near their final asking price. Neither side holds a clear edge, so the number you list at matters more than the headline. The comparables for your specific home, not a market label, are what the asking price is weighed against.
What This Means for Buyers
Corona is a mixed picture for buyers. Market indicators do not agree, so we are withholding a buyer's or seller's market classification. Review the inventory, selling time, and sale-to-list figures individually for a clearer picture of current conditions. Come pre-approved, and judge each home on its own comparables rather than on the market's headline.

The listings that did not sell asked a median of $1,080,000 — 16% above the $931,000 median of the homes that closed. Counted over the trailing twelve months: every listing that closed, expired, was withdrawn or was terminated. Listings still active or under contract are not counted on either side. If the feed does not retain every withdrawn listing, the real figure is higher than the one shown, never lower.

What It's Like Living in Corona
Corona is one of Queens's most established residential communities, offering a distinctive blend of suburban character and metropolitan accessibility. Located in the 11368 zip code, the community is served by the New York City Department Of Education.
With a median single-family sale price of $945,000 and a median recorded property tax of $6,700 a year across single-family sales in ZIP 11368 (Corona mailing area), Corona pairs an established housing stock with direct access to New York City. The commute to Manhattan averages approximately 16 min via the Long Island Rail Road.
Corona's housing splits across ownership forms — coops selling at a median of $265K, condos selling at a median of $470K, single-family homes selling at a median of $945K — and the differences go well beyond price. In a coop or condo, the building handles the envelope — roof, heat, grounds — and your monthly maintenance or common charges fund it; in a house, those responsibilities (and that flexibility) are entirely yours. Both coop and condo buildings are active markets here — see the segment data above for how each is currently moving.
Joseph's Insider Guide to Corona
Direct answers informed by 5,000+ closed transactions across Nassau, Suffolk, Queens and Brooklyn — not the canned content you'd find on any listing portal.
Is Corona a good place to live for commuters?
The LIRR connects Corona to Penn Station and Grand Central Madison in approximately 16 min, and the neighborhood carries a transit score of 84/100. 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 Corona, NY?
Corona homeowners pay a median of approximately $6,700 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.
Is now a good time to buy or sell in Corona?
The single-family market in ZIP 11368 (Corona mailing area) is sending mixed signals right now — the inventory on hand points to buyers, yet homes are still selling at or near their final asking price, so we do not call it a buyer's or a seller's market, with homes selling in about 73 days. Single-family sale prices in ZIP 11368 (Corona mailing area) changed +10% year over year. Timing decisions depend on your specific situation — contact Joseph for a no-cost strategy session tailored to your property and goals.
What makes Corona different from other Queens communities?
Corona is a long-established community served by the New York City Department Of Education. Prices and activity vary by property type, school district, condition and price band; the figures above show where this market stands now.
What should buyers know before making an offer in Corona?
School district boundaries in Corona often run street by street — two blocks can mean a different school zone, so confirming a home's exact attendance zone before you make an offer matters. As an Associate Broker who is also an attorney, Joseph reads title and contract details differently than most agents — and when the facts of a deal are in front of him, he knows what's worth asking about. (Not a substitute for your own attorney's representation.)
Is Corona walkable for everyday living?
Corona has a Walk Score of 56/100, measured at a single point near the centre of Corona. Walkability varies street by street, so check the score for a specific address; the LIRR provides Manhattan access in approximately 16 min.

Schools in Corona, NY
Corona is served by the New York City Department Of Education. Attendance zones in New York City are assigned street by street, so a Corona mailing address does not by itself determine which school a home is zoned for.
