A Private Pricing Opinion — what your apartment at The Jefferson Unique Residence 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.
78 Jefferson Street is a seven-residence condominium on a 25-by-100-foot lot in Bushwick, accepted by the Attorney General on May 6, 2026. The plan totals $7,120,000, an average of $1,017,143 per residence (our arithmetic), which puts the building near the $1 million line that triggers the state mansion tax.
It is early. No listings, no recorded deeds and no marketing materials turned up in the research for this page, and the plan has no effective date. Buyers here are looking at a plan filed in August 2025 for a building PLUTO already dates to 2024.
Architecture and residences
PLUTO shows a four-story residential walk-up of 7,827 square feet on a 2,517-square-foot lot, zoned R6, with seven units and a year built of 2024, or roughly 1,118 square feet of floor area per home before common space (our arithmetic). Department of Buildings records on the lot show an alteration job opened in 2019 on an existing three-family building, signed off in July 2025, so the project appears to be a rebuild or enlargement of an existing structure even though the Attorney General classifies the plan as new construction. Scope and architect are not named in the records reviewed.
Bedroom counts, finishes and amenities are not public. The Attorney General record lists seven residential units, with no storage or commercial units.
Offering and pricing
Per the offering plan filed with the New York State Attorney General (plan CD250267), the plan was submitted August 13, 2025 and accepted May 6, 2026, with Jefferson Unique Development LLC as sponsor. Our price file shows the initial and current total at $7,120,000. The Attorney General's detail page for this plan did not load in repeated attempts, so amendments, the effective date and units sold were not reviewed. The record in our data shows no units sold.
There are no asking prices to report. The plan average of about $1.02 million per home is the only price signal.
Recent sales
Sales sourced from NYC Department of Finance recorded transfers (BBL 3-03171-0028; 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.

What to know if you’re buying
The plan is accepted, not effective. Contracts can be signed, but the sponsor has not declared the plan effective. Check the deposit escrow terms and what happens if the plan is never declared effective.
Conflicting build records. PLUTO says 2024; the Department of Buildings job began in 2019 as an alteration. Ask for the certificate of occupancy and the scope of work.
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), plus the state mansion tax of 1% at $1 million and above. Use the calculators below to run your price.
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.
