ZIP 11961 has about 3.1 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 $20,260 a year, this home's property tax runs roughly 69% above the $12,000 typical for Longwood Central School District.

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.
