Concord sits on Staten Island's north shore between Clifton and Grasmere, inside ZIP 10304 with a piece spilling into 10301. It is one of the densest small-multifamily pockets on the Island, and it is currently one of the few Staten Island neighborhoods trading below its own ZIP code. Buyers who understand why are getting two-family houses at prices the rest of the borough is not seeing.
What is the median home price in Concord, Staten Island right now?
The Concord median sale price is $670,000 over the trailing twelve months, down about 6% from the prior twelve months on 71 recorded sales. That is a live read as of September 2026. The same window shows a median single-family sale of $699,500 and a median townhouse sale of $650,000, with average price per square foot at $517, 55 days on market, and 4.4 months of supply across 1,318 homes. Concord turns over roughly six times a month, so any single-month Concord median is statistically meaningless. The twelve-month figure is the only one worth quoting.
Here is the part most buyers never see. ZIP 10304, which contains Concord, is running up about 3.97% year over year through July 2026, with a median sold price around $713,600 and 299 sales over twelve months. A separate index read on 10304 shows roughly +4.7% over twelve months through August 2026. So Concord is down 6% inside a ZIP that is up 4%. The neighborhood is underperforming its own ZIP code by roughly ten points, and that is not a data error. It is a mix story, and it is the reason to be shopping Concord right now rather than a year from now.
How much of Concord's housing stock is two-family or multi-family?
Neighborhood-level stock counts for Concord specifically are not published, but the ZIP 10304 profile is the closest reliable proxy and it is striking. Of roughly 17,283 housing units in ZIP 10304, about 2,939 sit in two-unit structures and another 1,090 sit in three-to-four-unit structures. Add in the larger buildings and roughly 53% of all housing units in 10304 are in multi-family structures of some kind, against about 32% in one-unit detached homes and 14% in one-unit attached homes. For comparison, ZIP 10314 on the Island's mid-section is about 24% two-family and only about 38.5% multi-family overall. Concord's corner of Staten Island is built for two-family ownership in a way most of the borough is not.
What that means practically: the comparable sale a seller's agent pulls in Concord is often a different animal from the house you are actually buying. A two-family with a legal second certificate of occupancy, separate utilities, and a rentable basement is not the same asset as the single-family three doors down, and Concord's blended median mixes them together. Joseph Ranola runs Concord comps by structure type and by legal unit count rather than by street, because on a two-family purchase the income side changes the value more than the address does.
Do property taxes go up faster on a Staten Island two-family?
In the 2026-27 tentative assessment roll, Staten Island two-family homes posted the fastest market value increase of any Class 1 property type, up 6.44% to $29.62 billion, against 5.76% for one-family homes and 5.00% for three-family homes. Average annual taxes on a Staten Island two-family moved from $7,786 to $8,195, an increase of $409. Staten Island Class 1 market value overall rose 6.11% and the borough recorded the largest percentage increase in assessed value in the city, up 5.1%.
That matters for a Concord buyer in a specific way. Two-family buyers underwrite the rent and often forget the tax line moves independently of it. If you are buying a Concord two-family with a projected $2,400 rent roll, budget for the tax line to move faster than the rent for at least the next assessment cycle. Joseph Ranola is a licensed real estate broker and not a tax advisor, so the numbers above are published figures from the city's roll rather than advice on your individual return.
Should I buy a two-family in Concord as my first home?
A Concord two-family is one of the few remaining ways to buy into Staten Island's north shore with a tenant covering part of the note. With the neighborhood median at $670,000 and down 6% while the surrounding ZIP is up, the entry point is temporarily favorable. The three things that decide whether a specific Concord two-family works are whether the second unit is legal, whether the utilities are separated, and whether the basement is finished with or without a certificate of occupancy. Those three answers move the value of the same building by six figures.
Ask for the certificate of occupancy before you ask for the rent roll. A stated rent on an undocumented unit is not income an appraiser or a lender will count, and it is not income you can legally collect. That single check kills more Concord deals than price ever does, and it is the check most buyers skip.
