Single-family homes in the Hempstead Union Free School District sold for a median of $660,000 (typically $575,000–$725,000) across 114 recorded sales between Oct 14, 2025 and Sep 24, 2026, up 7.3% on the 12 months before.

ZIP 11550 has about 3.3 months of single family inventory — seller's market. Demand is outpacing supply, so homes sell quickly with firm pricing and limited room to negotiate.

At about $12,553 a year, this home's property tax is in line with the roughly $13,000 typical for Hempstead Union Free School District.

A sale does not automatically reset it, and exemptions such as STAR, Senior or Veteran move the number as well — a new owner's bill is often not the same as the seller's.
