The numbers

Prices, rents and HOA dues: early November 2026

Prices, rents and HOA dues for Edgewater start with the data through October 31, 2026, published in early November 2026. MLS records for one- and two-bedroom sales in this area are incomplete for early October 2024, and a 24-month figure is never published over an incomplete period.

Until then this page shows the building itself: its unit types, its unit lines, what listings say about it and where it sits.

MLS records from 2007 to Sep 2026 identify 116 distinct units with bedroom information; each unit is counted once. This is not a verified breakdown of the building's 300 units on Assessor records: units that never appeared in the MLS are not shown, and a unit's layout may have changed since its last record. Not enough evidence yet to estimate the full unit mix.

Calculators

Run the numbers for a unit here

Monthly cost to own against renting, or yields and cash flow if you rent it out. Start from this building's figures and change anything.

Starting values are this building's medians for the unit type, where enough records exist; property tax is estimated from the building's tax per sq ft, only where enough units without exemptions agree. Change any number. An illustration only: not a loan offer, an appraisal, or tax or investment advice. Confirm figures with your lender, insurer and tax advisor. Nothing you type leaves your browser.

Questions worth asking about any co-op building

Standard questions for any building, not findings about this one.

  1. What do the monthly co-op dues include (property tax share, any underlying mortgage, utilities)?
  2. Is there an underlying (blanket) mortgage on the building — balance, rate, maturity?
  3. May we review the proprietary lease, bylaws and house rules?
  4. What are the board approval process and criteria for buyers (financing limits, interviews, timing)?
  5. May we review the latest financial statements and budget, and the reserve balance?
  6. Are there transfer fees, flip taxes, or rules on subletting and leasing?
  7. Has any special assessment been approved, proposed or discussed?
