The clearest answer right now is to price with room for negotiation and plan for a longer timeline.
If you are deciding whether to list now or wait, my answer is simple list only with a patient, disciplined pricing plan. In Maspeth, NY, the recent numbers point to more choice for shoppers and a longer road to closing, so sellers need to protect their position before the home hits the market.
One number to respect from recent data is 7.25 months of available supply last month. That came with a 45% month-over-month increase, and the market type for Maspeth, NY multifamily properties was identified as a buyer's market, which tells me sellers cannot rely on urgency alone. That matters because recent offers landed at 95.3% of asking last month, while a typical sale took 108 days. If you are setting your price in Maspeth, NY, build in the reality that buyers have options and that overpricing can leave you chasing the market instead of leading it. I recommend starting with the active pricing range that was reported recently. A typical asking price for active multifamily listings was $1,250,000 last month, while a typical closed price was $950,000. That gap does not mean every property should cut aggressively, but it does mean your price, condition, and terms need to make immediate sense together. Here is what I would do next. Price from the start with negotiation room, not fantasy room. Review how your property compares with the recent active range and the recent closed range before you sign off on list price. Prepare for a longer marketing window, and decide in advance how you will respond if early interest is soft. Some metrics were not reported for this period.
