A Private Pricing Opinion — what your apartment at The Eldertree would likely sell for today, what it costs to sell, and what you’d walk away with — reviewed personally against condition, exposures, renovation quality, and the competition actually on the market.
The Eldertree is a five-story, 10-residence condominium on Eldert Street in Bushwick, with 4,114 square feet of ground-floor commercial space under the homes (PLUTO). The Department of Buildings job began in 2020 as a four-story addition on a one-story building, and the new certificate of occupancy work signed off in 2023. The Attorney General accepted the plan in April 2022 and the sponsor declared it effective in July 2023.
It is one of the older new-development plans in this batch, which makes it a useful pricing record. Closings began in 2024, a 12-month city sales file in November 2026 shows few recent deeds, and listing records show one home actively offered in 2026. The plan's total offering was raised 12.8 percent after the initial filing.
Architecture and residences
PLUTO describes a five-story mixed-use condominium, 45 feet wide and 100 feet deep, with 8,699 square feet of residential area and 4,114 square feet of retail area, 12,813 square feet in total. Department of Buildings filings show the existing building as one story with no dwelling units and the proposed building as five stories with 10 dwelling units and 15,378 square feet of construction floor area. The structural job was approved in 2021 and the first permit issued in May 2021. Mechanical, plumbing and sprinkler jobs signed off between June and September 2023. The architect of record is not named in the records reviewed.
Listing records describe homes from one-bedrooms of about 556 square feet to three-bedroom homes of 956 to 1,153 square feet, with a penthouse. Published common charges run from $209 a month on a one-bedroom to $518 on a three-bedroom. Confirm each unit's figures in the plan's budget schedule.
Offering and pricing
Per the offering plan filed with the New York State Attorney General (plan CD220012), the plan was submitted January 13, 2022, accepted April 14, 2022 and declared effective July 31, 2023. The record lists 11 units: 10 residential and one commercial. The initial total offering price was $11,360,000 and the current price is $12,810,000, an increase of $1,450,000, or 12.8 percent. Those prices come from our price file of the Attorney General data; the amendments themselves were not reviewed. The database shows two units sold, a figure that predates the closings below, so it understates sales.
Closings and asks from city and listing records:
| Residence | Detail | Price | Date | Source |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Lot 1002 (likely 2A) | 3 bed, 3 bath, about 1,153 sf | $1,125,000 deed, about $976/sf | May 27, 2025 | ACRIS deed |
| 5B (lot 1011) | $0 recorded | Aug. 25, 2026 | ACRIS and city sales file | |
| 2B | $1,165,000, about $1,041/sf | July 2024 | listing record | |
| 4C | 1 bed, 556 sf | $585,000 | Feb. 2024 | listing record |
| 3B | 2 bed, 930 sf | $925,000 ask, $995/sf | active, price changed April 2026 | listing record |
| Penthouse | 3 bed, 2 bath, about 956 sf | $1,095,000 ask, $1,145/sf | April 2024 | listing record (a second record shows $999,000) |
The $0 on 5B is the amount the city record carries; it is not a usable comparable. The 2A match is our inference from the listing size and the deed lot, not a recorded unit label. Prices for the earlier closings come from listing records and are not checked against ACRIS here. ACRIS also shows a $606,000 mortgage on lot 1004 dated October 15, 2026, which points to a recent closing there.

Market read. Most recent trades (2025) cleared a median $976/sf (floor-adjusted) across 1 sale. Floor-adjusted means each sale is restated to a constant mix of floors, so the figure can differ from the plain median of the sales listed above. Median listing discount 6.3% from the last ask — a recurring negotiation gap worth pricing into any offer or listing strategy.

Sales sourced from NYC Department of Finance recorded transfers (BBL 3-03415-7501; each condominium apartment is its own tax lot). Apartment-level facts (line, condition, asking-price context) curated and cross-verified in The Roebling Research Library. Not all transactions cross-verify with ACRIS records — sponsor and LLC purchases sometimes record at stipulated values rather than market price; square footage from recorded condo declarations and offering plans.

What to know if you’re buying
The plan is effective. Contracts are binding under the plan's terms and closings have run since 2024. Read every amendment, because the total offering rose by $1.45 million.
Recorded prices sit near $1,000 per square foot. The 2A deed at about $976 and the 3B ask at $995 bracket what the building has cleared at. Use those, not the penthouse ask.
Closing costs. In sponsor sales the buyer customarily pays the New York State transfer tax (0.4%) and the New York City real property transfer tax (1% at $500,000 or less and 1.425% above). Most homes here are under $1.2 million, so the state mansion tax of 1% applies only at $1 million and above. Use the calculators below to run your price.
Commercial unit. The ground floor is a separate commercial condominium unit. Ask for its use restrictions and its share of common expenses.
Carrying costs and abatement. The plan's budget projects common charges and real estate taxes. No tax abatement was confirmed in this review.
Sponsor control. The sponsor controls the board until enough units close to turn it over. The by-laws set the threshold.

How to read the facts on this page. Items attributed to an offering plan describe the building as it was offered at that filing — unit mix, square footage, the amenity program as planned. They are not a statement about how the building operates today. Tax and compliance figures are sourced separately to current City records and carry their own dates. House rules, staffing and fee policy can change by board resolution without any public filing: treat every policy line here as a starting point for diligence and confirm it with the managing agent. Where this page compares one building or neighborhood to another, that is our analysis of the recorded record — it names the measure, the period and the sample it rests on, and it is an observation about medians rather than a prediction about any particular apartment.
