New Hyde Park Market Data
Current market conditions and pricing trends for New Hyde Park, Nassau County, NY.
Single-family, condo and co-op homes are measured separately — these medians are never blended together. Based on 279 recorded closings in ZIP 11040 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.
11040's market has been notably consistent over the past 2 years: monthly median sale prices have stayed between $825K and $1.26M, centering around $965K, without a sustained move in either direction. Homes here have lately been going under contract in roughly 32 days.
Based on information from OneKey® MLS, for the period October 6, 2025 through October 2, 2026. Source: OneKey MLS (recorded LI sales, trailing 12mo) + actual tax. Based on 128 recorded sales. Property tax values shown are algorithmic estimates calculated from official NY State ORPS / NYC Department of Finance assessment data aggregated by school district (Long Island) or ZIP code (NYC). These figures are an educational baseline and do not represent a guaranteed or binding tax bill. Actual taxes vary based on individual assessed value, applicable exemptions (STAR, Senior, Veteran), historical grievances, village overlays, and special district levies. Verify exact tax with the Nassau County Assessor / Suffolk County Comptroller / NYC Department of Finance before any financial commitment.
Of the 64 homes for sale in New Hyde Park today, 23 are now asking less than they originally asked — 35.9%, against 35.4% across Nassau County.
And among the homes that actually sold
Among the 232 homes that sold in New Hyde Park over the last twelve settled months, 24.1% had cut their price before they sold — up from 19.9% 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 176 New Hyde Park homes that sold without ever reducing achieved 100.0% of their asking price in a median of 21 days. The 56 that did reduce achieved 90.9% of what they first asked, after 85 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 New Hyde Park 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
New Hyde Park reads as a Seller's Market: about 3.1 months of single-family supply, and homes sold in a median of 27 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 New Hyde Park 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 $1,100,000 — 17% above the $943,500 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.
