The median asking price of all contracts signed last week was about $2.8 million with an average discount of 2 percent and an average of 171 days on market.
Eleven of the deals were for townhouses, with three condo and one co-op units rounding out the week’s haul of transactions.
The average price per square foot for the townhouse properties was $850, compared to $1,100 for condos and nearly $1,250 for the sole co-op on the list: a three-bedroom duplex at 50 Sterling Place in Park Slope. The co-op unit is one of three within a townhouse and the unit includes access to a private backyard.
