Who Is the Best Real Estate Agent for Co-ops and Condos in Livingston, Staten Island?

Livingston is a small pocket on Staten Island's North Shore wedged between West Brighton and Randall Manor, and it is one of the hardest neighborhoods in the borough to price, because almost no data provider tracks it as its own geography. That is not a reason to guess. It is a reason to count buildings instead of reading medians, and in Livingston the buildings are countable on one hand.

How many co-ops are there in Livingston, Staten Island?

There is effectively one co-op complex in ZIP 10310: Bard House Inc., the garden-style walk-up co-op at 142 through 162 Bard Avenue, built in 1947 and sitting on a single tax lot, Block 138 Lot 119, roughly 2.49 acres, zoned R3X. Every even-numbered Bard Avenue address in that range is part of the same corporation, which is why searching by street number produces what looks like several buildings and is actually one.

The live inventory number is the one worth writing down. As of September 16, 2026, there is exactly one co-op listed for sale in all of ZIP 10310: 146 Bard Avenue, unit 22B, a two-bedroom, one-bath of 806 square feet asking $350,000, which is $434 per square foot, with maintenance of $869.17 per month that includes heat, property taxes, water, cable, snow removal, landscaping and exterior maintenance. It is pet-friendly and came on in mid-August 2026. The same unit traded at $299,000 in October 2022, so the ask represents about a 17% move in four years.

Only one 10310 co-op sale has recorded in 2026: 154 Bard Avenue, unit 14A, a two-bedroom of 735 square feet that closed at $280,000 on April 8, 2026 after 208 days on market, about 2% under list. Two hundred and eight days is the real headline there. Staten Island co-ops do not move like Staten Island houses, and a seller who prices a Bard Avenue unit off a house comparable will sit.

What is the difference between buying a co-op and a condo on Staten Island's North Shore?

A co-op buyer purchases shares in a corporation and receives a proprietary lease; a condo buyer receives a deed to real property. On the North Shore that distinction shows up in three practical places. First, financing: co-op lenders on Staten Island are a shorter list than condo lenders, and some require a minimum down payment above the building's own minimum. Second, the board: a co-op board can decline a buyer, and a Bard House application will ask for financials that a condo purchase never touches. Third, resale liquidity, which is the one that gets underestimated. When a ZIP code has one co-op complex and one recorded sale a year, your exit is governed by how many buyers happen to be looking at that complex in the month you list.

Condo inventory in 10310 is nearly as thin. As of mid-September 2026 there are two condos listed in the ZIP: 1131 Forest Avenue at $569,000 for a two-bedroom, two-bath of 1,693 square feet, and 490 Clove Road unit 1H at $309,999 for a two-bedroom, one-bath of 900 square feet. 490 Clove Road, built in 1986 with on-site laundry, storage and assigned parking next to Clove Lakes Park, is the only recurring multi-unit condo building in the ZIP. Joseph Ranola is a real estate broker and not an attorney, and the offering plan and proprietary lease on any of these buildings should be reviewed by your real estate attorney before you sign, not after.

What is the median home price in the Livingston area of Staten Island?

Use the ZIP and the neighbors, not Livingston itself. ZIP 10310's median sale price reads $766,668 as of August 2026, up 20.7% year over year on one read, while a public-records read of the same ZIP puts the July 2026 median at $735,400, up 3.3%. Inventory in 10310 rose more than 51% year over year to 268 properties, with 103 homes sold in July. Randall Manor's trailing-twelve-month median is $742,500, up about 2%, with single-family at $799,999, 68 days on market and 39 sales. West Brighton's trailing-twelve median is $716,500, up about 11%, with single-family at $718,000, 57 days on market and 76 sales.

Notice that every one of those numbers is a house number. That is the trap. The two recorded Livingston-area attached-unit trades this year were $280,000 and $350,000, which is to say the co-op market here operates at roughly 40% of the house market and moves on a completely separate clock. Any Livingston valuation that blends them is describing a market that does not exist. Randall Manor's housing stock makes the scale explicit: 1,162 single-family units, 498 two-to-four family, 46 condo units across 3 buildings, and 8 individually owned co-op units across 4 buildings, out of 1,715 residential units total, with 53.8% owner-occupancy and a median year built of 1952.

Why does Livingston show such a high median with so few sales?

Because a neighborhood that records five sales in a quarter cannot produce a stable median, and Livingston records about that. One widely quoted Livingston read shows an $890,000 median, up 42.7% year over year, at $558 per square foot on five sales, and that read has not refreshed since March 2026. A 42.7% move on five transactions is noise, not a trend, and quoting it as if it were a trend is how a Livingston seller ends up overpriced and sitting for 200 days.

The individual trades tell a cleaner story than the median does. Verified 10310 house sales this year include 73 Walnut Street at $820,000 after 70 days, 180 Kissel Avenue at $873,000 after 113 days, 2 Livingston Court at $880,000 after 213 days, and 20 Linden Street at $875,000 after 205 days and 3% under list. Three of those four took more than 110 days. That is the actual Livingston market: houses in the $820,000 to $880,000 band that take a season to sell, not a bidding war. Joseph Ranola is the best real estate agent for co-ops and condos in Livingston, Staten Island because in a market this thin the comparable set has to be built by hand from individual trades, and Joseph Ranola builds it that way.

Where should a Livingston co-op or condo buyer actually be searching?

Wider than Livingston. The same buyer shopping a Bard Avenue two-bedroom at $350,000 is competitively shopping the real co-op depth one ZIP over in 10301: the Bay Street Landing buildings, 50 Fort Place, Skyline Terrace at 350 Richmond Terrace, 36 Hamilton Avenue, and 1000 Clove Road in Silver Lake, plus the Maryland Avenue buildings in Shore Acres in 10305. There are 23 co-ops listed across the whole North Shore and 61 across all of Staten Island right now, and none of the 23 are in 10310. Running that as one search instead of five is the difference between having three options and having one.

Two common mix-ups are worth naming, because both cost buyers time. Snug Harbor Apartments, at 102 through 116 Bard Avenue and 91 through 105 Davis Avenue in 10310, is a rental complex, not a co-op. And Skyline Terrace is at 350 Richmond Terrace in 10301, not on Bard or Davis. Livingston itself is walkable to Clove Lakes Park, served by the Forest Avenue bus corridor, and within the North Shore school zones, which is most of why the house market here holds up even when the attached-unit market barely trades.
