Two-to-three-family homes in the East Rockaway Union Free School District sold for a median of $745,000 (typically $720,000–$765,000) across 7 recorded sales between Oct 14, 2025 and Sep 25, 2026. Too small a sample to be statistically stable — that median rests on 7 recorded sales, so a single sale moves it substantially. Treat it as a starting point rather than a market reading.

ZIP 11518 has about 5 months of inventory — balanced market. Supply and demand are roughly even, so buyers and sellers share leverage with fair, predictable pricing.

At about $15,636 a year, this home's property tax is in line with the roughly $15,000 typical for East Rockaway Union Free School District. Nassau assessments run on a multi-year cycle, so the assessed value behind this bill can lag what the home actually sells for today. 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.

East Rockaway Market Trend

East Rockaway's monthly median has swung between $495K and $900K over the past 2 years — volatility that usually reflects a thin or mixed market rather than one steady trend. The typical recent sale has taken about 36 days to go under contract. Part of why that median has moved unevenly month to month is mix shift — which property types happen to sell. The roughly $660K blended median combines very different types, so a stretch heavy on multi-family (2-4 family) (around $835K) versus one heavy on co-ops (around $280K) can swing the all-types figure on its own, independent of any change in value. Of 238 recent sales, single-family made up the largest share at about 64% with a median near $700K, co-ops about 17% near $280K, multi-family (2-4 family) about 9% near $835K, condos about 9% near $644K. Because co-ops, though not the most common, is priced far enough from the rest to pull the blend down, the blended figure tends to sit below the single-family median rather than above it — so a typical single-family house has tended to sell closer to $700K, roughly $40K over the headline number, even though the higher-priced multi-family (2-4 family) in the mix pull the other way but at about 9% are too small a share to offset that drag. These are past medians, not predictions or guarantees, and individual properties vary widely; anyone weighing a specific property should review current comparable sales for that property type.
