The Trend
Over the past 2 years, 11364 has resisted a single storyline: the median sale price has bounced between $348K and $1.05M, the kind of swing that typically reflects a thin or mixed market. The typical recent sale has taken about 72 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 $400K blended median combines very different types, so a stretch heavy on multi-family (2-4 family) (around $1.52M) versus one heavy on co-ops (around $335K) can swing the all-types figure on its own, independent of any change in value. Of 594 recent sales, co-ops made up the largest share at about 57% with a median near $335K, single-family about 30% near $1.09M, multi-family (2-4 family) about 8% near $1.52M, condos about 5% near $680K. Because the most common type sold here is also the lowest-priced, 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 $1.09M, roughly $685K over the headline number, even though the higher-priced multi-family (2-4 family) in the mix pull the other way but at about 8% 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.
Coops & Condos: A Different Trend
Houses, coops, and condos do not move together here -- each segment below is measured on its own closed sales, so the direction (and what it means for you) can differ from the blended market above.
Coops in Oakland Gardens
Balanced Market
the Oakland Gardens coop market has firmed over the past 2 years: the median sale price is up roughly 18% year over year to about $360K, with homes generally moving more quickly. Sellers currently hold the stronger hand, and if the pattern persists, prices could continue to firm.
Sellers: Balanced coop markets reward precise pricing -- your building's comp history matters more than the neighborhood average.
Buyers: Neither side holds the leverage. A clean, well-documented offer on the right building still wins without overpaying.

Who has cut their asking price
Price reductions in Oakland Gardens
22 of 49 homes for sale
44.9% have cut their asking price — well above the 34.0% across Queens
Of the 49 homes for sale in Oakland Gardens today, 22 are now asking less than they originally asked — 44.9%, against 34.0% across Queens. 1 seller has raised their asking price.
And among the homes that actually sold
Among the 101 homes that sold in Oakland Gardens over the last twelve settled months, 20.8% had cut their price before they sold — down from 23.3% 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 80 Oakland Gardens homes that sold without ever reducing achieved 98.8% of their asking price in a median of 32 days. The 21 that did reduce achieved 93.5% of what they first asked, after 95 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 Oakland Gardens 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.
Joseph's Market Take
What This Means for Sellers
Oakland Gardens reads as a Seller's Market: about 3.8 months of single-family supply, and homes sold in a median of 32 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.
Buyer Advisory
What This Means for Buyers
Buyers in Oakland Gardens 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.

03 — About Oakland Gardens
What It's Like Living in Oakland Gardens
Oakland Gardens is one of Queens's most established residential communities, offering a distinctive blend of suburban character and metropolitan accessibility. Located in the 11364 zip code, the community is served by the New York City Department Of Education.
With a median home price of $1,115,000 and a median recorded property tax of $10,200 annually, Oakland Gardens pairs an established housing stock with direct access to New York City. The commute to Manhattan averages approximately 23 min via the Long Island Rail Road.
Living in Oakland Gardens does not mean one kind of ownership — coops selling at a median of $348K, condos selling at a median of $674K, single-family homes selling at a median of $1.12M, each with its own economics and day-to-day experience. The practical difference is who owns the to-do list: coop and condo buildings absorb exterior upkeep through monthly charges, while a house puts every system and repair decision in your hands. Both coop and condo buildings are active markets here — see the segment data above for how each is currently moving.

Expert answers to the most common questions about buying and selling in Oakland Gardens.
How much does it cost to buy a home in Oakland Gardens?
Single-family homes in Oakland Gardens sold for a median of about $1.12 million in the 12 months to September 10, 2026, across 82 closed sales, up 6% from the 12 months before. Their median recorded property-tax bill was about $10,200 a year. At that price the buyer also pays New York State's 1% mansion tax, which applies to homes of $1 million or more: about $11,200 on $1.12 million. The State's 0.4% base transfer tax is paid by the seller. Lender, title-insurance and attorney charges depend on the loan and the contract, so they are not included here. Sources: OneKey® MLS closed sales; tax rates from the NYS Department of Taxation and Finance.
Is Oakland Gardens a good place to buy a home, and who is it right for?
Oakland Gardens is an established Queens community served by the New York City Department Of Education, with a median home price of $1,115,000 and a median tax bill around $10,200. Commuters reach Manhattan via the LIRR, and it's currently a Seller's Market. Whether it fits comes down to budget, schools, and commute — I'll give you a candid read on the trade-offs versus nearby towns.
What are property taxes like in Oakland Gardens, and can they be lowered?
Oakland Gardens's median property-tax bill runs about $10,200/year. Can they be lowered? Sometimes. You can file a tax grievance — formally a tax certiorari proceeding — that challenges the assessed value your bill is calculated from. There's no guarantee of a reduction, it can take roughly two years to show up on your bill, and even a successful challenge may move the number only modestly. Many homeowners still pursue it, and a number of firms will handle the filing for a share of the first year's savings. It's worth reviewing for your specific home, and Joseph can pull a property's full tax history before you make an offer. If taxes are a deciding factor, you can also filter for lower-tax communities and compare.
What is the LIRR commute from Oakland Gardens to Manhattan?
The typical commute to Manhattan is roughly 24 minutes by LIRR from the Bayside station (213th St & 41st Ave, Bayside, NY 11361) on the Port Washington Branch, with peak trains serving both Penn Station and Grand Central Madison (about 23 minutes to Grand Central). If you want options, nearby stations include Broadway (about 23 min to Penn) — handy for trading a shorter drive for a faster train. View LIRR schedules and fares.
What is the median home price in Oakland Gardens, and is it a buyer's or seller's market right now?
The median home price in Oakland Gardens is $1,115,000, with prices trending +6% year over year, and the market is currently a Seller's Market with a median of 32 days on market. On the supply side, Oakland Gardens is carrying about 3.8 months of single-family inventory — the time it would take to sell every active single-family listing at the current sales pace — which points to a limited supply that favors sellers, with roughly 26% of available homes selling each month (the absorption rate). Homes have recently sold at a median of about 98.6% of list price — 19% of sales closed above asking, 16% at asking, and 65% below. For a detailed analysis of your specific home or purchase target, contact Joseph DeVito for a complimentary market evaluation.
How are the schools in Oakland Gardens?
Oakland Gardens is served by the New York City Department Of Education. School attendance zones can run street by street, so an address in Oakland Gardens doesn't automatically put a home in a given school. Because that distinction can affect both your child's school and the home's resale value, Joseph checks the specific attendance zone for any home you're seriously considering before you make an offer.
Why work with Joseph DeVito to buy or sell in Oakland Gardens?
Joseph DeVito doesn't just help people buy and sell homes — he's spent over a decade hands-on renovating them. Alongside 5,000+ transactions, that renovation experience means he's worked through layout, design, and functionality decisions and lived with the timelines, costs, and pitfalls of a project — so he walks a home with a renovator's eye for craftsmanship and condition and can show buyers where to look closely. As a licensed attorney (though not your attorney on the transaction), he also reads a deal differently than most agents: when the facts of a transaction are in front of him, he understands the contract and title questions worth asking. His background also includes deep foreclosure and distressed-sale experience. In a divorce or estate sale, he can orient you and then coordinate with your matrimonial or estate representative for the legal specifics outside an agent's role. He's also genuinely responsive. It's an uncommon mix, and clients are generally better served by it. (Joseph represents you as your agent through Keller Williams; this is not legal representation and does not create an attorney-client relationship.)
Is Oakland Gardens a buyer's or seller's market?
Over the past 2 years, 11364 has resisted a single storyline: the median sale price has bounced between $348K and $1.05M, the kind of swing that typically reflects a thin or mixed market. The typical recent sale has taken about 72 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 $400K blended median combines very different types, so a stretch heavy on multi-family (2-4 family) (around $1.52M) versus one heavy on co-ops (around $335K) can swing the all-types figure on its own, independent of any change in value. Of 594 recent sales, co-ops made up the largest share at about 57% with a median near $335K, single-family about 30% near $1.09M, multi-family (2-4 family) about 8% near $1.52M, condos about 5% near $680K. Because the most common type sold here is also the lowest-priced, 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 $1.09M, roughly $685K over the headline number, even though the higher-priced multi-family (2-4 family) in the mix pull the other way but at about 8% 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.
Are sellers cutting prices in Oakland Gardens?
22 of the 49 homes for sale in Oakland Gardens are asking less than they originally asked (44.9%), against 34.0% across Queens. Among homes that actually sold there in the last twelve settled months, 20.8% had cut before selling. Updated daily from the OneKey MLS feed.
What counts as a price reduction on this page?
A home is counted as reduced when its current asking price is lower than the price it was first listed at. It is not based on an estimate, on a valuation, or on what similar homes are worth — only on the seller's own two numbers, their original asking price and their current one.
Are price cuts in Oakland Gardens becoming more or less common?
20.8% of the 101 homes that sold in Oakland Gardens over the last twelve settled months had reduced their price before selling, compared with 23.3% over the same twelve months a year earlier. The two periods cover the same calendar months, because price cutting is strongly seasonal.
Do homes that cut their price in Oakland Gardens sell for less?
Over the last twelve settled months in Oakland Gardens, the 80 homes that sold without ever reducing achieved 98.8% of their asking price, and the 21 that reduced achieved 93.5% of what they first asked. These are different homes priced differently from the start, so the difference describes the two groups rather than the effect of a reduction.
