Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (May 2026 - Jul 2026).

Inventory in Kips Bay has tightened in this rolling three-month view, with active listings down more than 20% year over year to 242. New listings have fallen even faster, dropping over a quarter from a year ago, which limits fresh options coming to market. Contract activity is softer, as pending sales are down about 19% annually even though closed sales have inched up by roughly 5%.

Prices are responding to this mix of lower supply and moderating demand. The typical home value over the past three months is up sharply, rising nearly 30% year over year to about $1.4 million, while the median list price is down more than 10% from a year ago, suggesting sellers may be pricing more conservatively to attract buyers.

Conditions still lean toward sellers, with about 4.8 months of supply compared with 5.5 months in Manhattan overall, yet homes are taking longer to move than they did a year ago, with a median of around two months on the market. Most properties are selling very close to asking, reflected in an average sale-to-list ratio just under 100% and only about 10% selling above list price, so negotiation room can vary by listing. Buyers and sellers who want to navigate these shifting patterns in Kips Bay can turn to Agent Pronto to connect with a local agent who understands this market’s nuances.



Learn more about what Kips Bay has to offer.

Kips Bay offers residents a lively, walkable blend of modern housing, quick access to Midtown amenities, scenic waterfront parks, and a tight-knit, community-focused atmosphere.

Kips Bay offers a quieter, more relaxed slice of Manhattan compared with nearby Murray Hill and Gramercy Park, yet keeps you close to Midtown offices and Union Square. Low to mid‑rise apartment buildings, larger complexes like Kips Bay Towers, and a growing mix of condos and rentals give the neighborhood a residential feel that appeals to both long‑time locals and new arrivals.

The East River Esplanade and Glick Park provide waterfront air and open space, while the nearby Asser Levy Recreation Center offers a gym, pool, and community programs. Everyday errands are easy, with Trader Joe’s Kips Bay and the Kips Bay AMC cinema as regular neighborhood anchors. Third Avenue brings casual dining and coffee spots, and students and professionals from NYU Langone Health add energy during the day.

Transit access via the 4/5/6 on Park Avenue South, the 6 at 28th Street, and multiple bus lines keeps commutes manageable, while many residents walk or bike to nearby Midtown.

For buyers, Kips Bay can offer more space and relative value compared with some surrounding neighborhoods, but desirable units move quickly. For sellers, understanding current demand across co‑ops, condos, and rentals is crucial to pricing and timing. Agent Pronto can connect both buyers and sellers with a knowledgeable local agent to navigate Kips Bay’s market with the right preparation.

“Orly was wonderful from the first phone call to the endless house appointments we scheduled and attended. She never stopped helping me find my perfect home and take in my thoughts, concerns and likes. She was there every step of the way from viewing, inspection, maintenance and repairs, familiarizing with previous owner all the house details, to closing. I never felt like I was bothering her or obligated to make a house purchase I did not want and she never tried to sell me any home I did not want. She was the best!!!!”

“I had an incredible experience working with Samuel Okine for my first NYC apartment. From start to finish, he was attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in helping me find the perfect place. Sam's guidance made the entire process stress-free, and I couldn't be happier with my new home. I highly recommend Sam to anyone looking for a trustworthy and professional agent in New York City!”

“Andrea was the best realtor agent. From the start, she understood the difficulty of the seller in making this big decision to let go of the home. She listened and supported me all throughout this journey. She is not only an agent, but she became like a family that cares to make the transition easier. For the seller, you need a trusted realtor who also respects your property and cares about your emotional well-being. Up to the end, Andrea was there to offer her services. I highly recommend Andrea and if I have the power, she should receive an 'Excellent Service' award. Thank you, Andrea, for your services and support!”

“Daniel had a clear strategy, was extremely professional in all regards, and sold our apartment after the first open house. After having a different broker for six months with no results, I am sure it was Daniel’s excellent ideas and execution of the marketing that moved the apartment so quickly. Daniel is clearly very competent, and consistently courteous and professional, always making us feel completely at ease through this emotional and often stressful process. He is prompt and clear in his correspondence and always patient when we are not. I would highly recommend him to anyone.”
