What is a Windsor Terrace home worth when I am moving away?

PropertyShark reports a Windsor Terrace median sale price of $909,000 for Q3 2026, down 3.4% year over year, on 28 transactions, down 12.5%. Median price per square foot was $892, down 9.4%. The median moved from $994,500 in Q1 to $982,500 in Q2 to about $909,999 in Q3. A seller on a deadline for a job or a lease elsewhere should read those three quarters together, because they show a market that has been softening gradually, not suddenly. Start with a number at what is my Brooklyn home worth.

Why does the Windsor Terrace median not describe my home?

In Q3 2026 PropertyShark shows co-ops at a $627,000 median on 16 sales, houses at $1.8 million on 8 sales, and condos at $970,000 on 4 sales. Sixteen of 28 closings were co-ops, so the blended $909,000 describes neither the typical co-op nor the typical house. Co-ops were down 16.4% year over year and houses were down 3.9%. A relocating seller who lists a house off the blended median underprices it by hundreds of thousands, and one who lists a co-op off it overprices it. Joseph Ranola prices from the property type first.

How much of Windsor Terrace is co-ops and condos?

PropertyShark counts 3,590 residential units in Windsor Terrace: 1,316 two-to-four family, 1,200 co-op, 564 single-family and 510 condo. Co-ops are about 33% of units and condos about 14%, so nearly half the neighborhood sells through a board process or a condo closing. A co-op seller leaving the city needs to start the board package, the managing agent's documents and any flip tax inquiry early, because a buyer cannot close until the board approves. PropertyShark states that Windsor Terrace properties are not designated as at risk from fire, flood or hurricane activity.

Do I owe capital gains tax if I sell my Windsor Terrace home and leave?

According to IRS Topic 701, a seller can exclude up to $250,000 of gain, or up to $500,000 on a joint return, if the seller owned and lived in the home for at least 24 months of the last five years. Moving out of New York does not by itself change that test. Joseph Ranola is not a CPA, so whether the exclusion covers a particular sale, and how any state tax applies, is a question for the seller's accountant. The broker's job is to set the timeline so the sale closes before the move and the numbers are ready for the accountant.
