5 NYC condos for sale in buildings with a 421a tax abatement
This Astoria one bedroom is listed for $695,000. It has a 421a tax abatement until 2030.
If you’re a buyer who is stressed out by the double whammy of high prices and rising mortgage rates, buying in a New York City condo building that still has a 421a tax abatement is one way to take some of the sting out.
These buildings benefit from a tax break and the savings are passed on to you as the buyer, meaning you pay no or lower taxes until the abatement is phased out. While the program recently expired, impacting buildings that have not begun construction, you can find condos that still have several years left on their abatements.
How can you find one of these apartments? Do a keyword search on listing sites like StreetEasy for “421a”. A recent search on StreetEasy turned up 245 apartments across NYC with tax abatements. Just remember to check out when the abatement expires, because you can find apartments with only a couple of years left, and others with up to 10 years remaining.
