If you have ever stood in a two-bedroom doing arithmetic in your head about whether a third bedroom is worth it, there is now a decade of data with something to say about it. A new PropertyShark study of roughly 136,000 New York City condo sales recorded between January 2015 and September 2026 found that Brooklyn behaves unlike any other borough: here, square footage costs almost exactly the same whether you are buying a studio or a 3-bedroom apartment.
Across every size band the study measured, from under 500 square feet to over 2,500, Brooklyn’s median condo price per square foot stayed inside a $57 range, between $1,000 and $1,057 — condo sales only, measured across the whole decade. Brooklyn is the only borough in the city where that holds.
The figures below are PropertyShark’s neighborhood market trends for all home sales together — houses, co-ops and condos — in the second quarter of 2026. Each line gives the median sale price per square foot, the change on the same quarter a year earlier, and the median sale price behind it.

Brooklyn as a whole — $832 per square foot, up 5.5%, with a median sale price of $998,800. This borough-wide number sits below the condo range at the top of the article because it counts every kind of home together, houses and co-ops included, over a single quarter rather than condos over ten years.
