Miller Place Market Data
Current market conditions and pricing trends for Miller Place, Suffolk, NY.
Single-family, condo and co-op homes are measured separately — these medians are never blended together. Based on 134 recorded closings in ZIP 11764 between Sep 10, 2025 and Sep 10, 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.
After topping out near $835K around September 2024, 11764's median sale price has settled back to about $700K, and homes are taking longer to find buyers. If this trend continues, conditions could keep easing toward a more balanced market.

Across 8 years of county-clerk records, 126 homes in the Miller Place school district were bought by a company and resold within two years. Over the whole period the typical one was bought for $256,200 and resold for $430,000, a median of 7.1 months later.
That difference is gross. Renovation, carrying, financing and selling costs are not recorded anywhere public, so it is the change in price, not a profit. Over a hold of that length prices across the county moved about +5.2%, so most of the difference is not the market carrying the house.
What these homes resold for moved from a median of $292,900 in 2017 to $525,000 in 2024, up about 79% over the period.
The pandemic years cut against the intuition that investors moved in. Companies bought 9.9% of homes here in 2019, then 6.5% in 2020 and 8.1% in 2021 — the lowest share of the 8 years. In the two years when buyers competed hardest, companies won a smaller share, not a larger one. The number bought and resold within two years fell with it, from 20 in 2019 to 14 in 2021.
The resales that did happen in those years were the strongest of the period: the typical one in 2020 came in 83% above what the buyer had paid, against 65% across the years as a whole. Prices were rising underneath them while they held.
Since then it has reversed. Company buying reached 9.6% in 2024 — around its pre-pandemic level, while the market cooled.
In 2025, 7 homes in the Miller Place school district were resold by a company that had bought them within two years — too few to quote a typical price from.
Companies bought 10.3% of the 156 homes sold in the Miller Place school district that year (16 of them).

They were bought for a median of $340,000 and resold for a median of $525,000. Measured house by house, the typical resale was 56% above what that same buyer had paid, a median of 5.8 months earlier.

Source: property transfers recorded with the county clerk, which cover every sale rather than only those listed for sale. Filings reach the state months after closing, so these figures run to October 2025 and describe what has already happened rather than the market today.
Between 2017 and October 2025, 319 homes in the Miller Place school district passed between family members rather than being sold — about 17 for every 100 that sold on the open market.
83% of them recorded no price at all, so they appear in no market statistic, no listing history and no sold comparable. They are counted here because the transfer itself is filed with the county clerk, whether or not money changed hands.
Counted from the reason recorded on each transfer with the county clerk, not from the price. Transfers filed only to add or remove a name on the deed are excluded — those are paperwork, not a change of owner. Where a filing gives no reason it is not counted, so these are minimum counts rather than a complete rate, and they run to October 2025.
Of the 28 homes for sale in Miller Place today, 12 are now asking less than they originally asked — 42.9%, against 34.8% across Suffolk. 2 sellers have raised their asking price.
And among the homes that actually sold
Among the 141 homes that sold in Miller Place over the last twelve settled months, 24.8% had cut their price before they sold — up from 22.8% over the same twelve months a year earlier. The for-sale figure runs higher than the sold figure because homes that need a reduction stay on the market longer, so they build up among the listings still available while the completed sales are led by homes that sold without cutting.
What each group got
Over those same twelve months, the 106 Miller Place homes that sold without ever reducing achieved 101.5% of their asking price in a median of 22 days. The 35 that did reduce achieved 93.8% of what they first asked, after 63 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 Miller Place 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 September 2025 and August 2026.
What This Means for Sellers
Miller Place reads as a Seller's Market: about 2.2 months of single-family supply, and homes sold in a median of 26 days over the past 12 months. If you're considering selling, this market rewards strategic pricing — not overpricing. A properly positioned listing will attract qualified buyers and maximize your net proceeds.
What This Means for Buyers
Buyers in Miller Place should be prepared to act quickly and come with strong offers. Pre-approval is essential, and buyers are generally better served retaining their own real estate attorney early to review the negotiation and contract. Expect competition, but don't overpay — there's a difference between being competitive and being reckless.
The listings that did not sell asked a median of $814,995 — 11% above the $732,500 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.

Schools in Miller Place, NY
Miller Place is served by the Miller Place Union Free School District. Attendance zones on Long Island are assigned street by street, so a Miller Place mailing address does not by itself determine which school a home is zoned for.

- North Country Road School
- High
- Miller Place High School
These are the schools recorded on homes sold in this district over the last 12 months — the district may also serve neighbouring communities. Zones can change and run street by street — we confirm the exact assignment for any home before you offer.
Typical value is the median recorded sale price in the district. Typical annual tax and effective rate are the median recorded tax bill and that bill divided by the median sale price, across 187 recent sales carrying a reported tax figure — an observed cost ratio, not an official millage rate. District boundaries can cross town and postal lines, so always verify the district for a specific address.
