Taxes and assessed value for 1250 5 Avenue
The city's Department of Finance assessed this lot at $40.4M for the 2026 tax year. That works out to $90K per residential unit. Assessed value is what the city taxes, not what the building would sell for, and the two routinely differ by a wide margin. The bill itself turns on the tax class rate and on any exemptions or abatements attached to the lot, neither of which is published here.

Rent stabilization at 1250 5 Avenue
DHCR registration records list 446 rent-stabilized units at this building in 2023, the most recent year PulseCities holds.

That is the only binding answer, and it takes time to come back. While you wait, you can get an email when the record here moves: a deed, an eviction, a permit or a violation filed on this building.

Questions about 1250 5 Avenue
Who owns 1250 5 Avenue?
The city's property file lists LAKEVIEW APARTMENTS HOUSING DEVELOPMENT FUND CORP. as the owner of record for 1250 5 Avenue. No deed for this lot appears in the ACRIS records PulseCities holds, so that name comes from the tax roll rather than from a recorded transfer.
Has 1250 5 Avenue changed hands recently?
No deed for 1250 5 Avenue appears in the ACRIS records PulseCities holds. That means no transfer has been published for this lot in the current window, not that the building has never been sold.
Have there been evictions at 1250 5 Avenue?
Yes. 16 marshal-executed evictions at 1250 5 Avenue appear in the NYC evictions dataset, the most recent on Jun 23, 2026. The dataset covers executed evictions only, so it undercounts housing court activity: cases that settle or end in a move-out never reach a marshal.
Is 1250 5 Avenue rent stabilized?
DHCR registrations list 446 stabilized units at this building in 2023. Registration is building-level, so it does not settle whether one apartment is stabilized. The free rent history from NYS Homes and Community Renewal does.
What is 1250 5 Avenue assessed at for property taxes?
The Department of Finance assessed the lot at $40.4M for the 2026 tax year. That is the figure the city taxes rather than a sale price, and the bill depends on the tax class rate and on any exemptions on the lot.
What is the displacement risk around 1250 5 Avenue?
10029 (East Harlem) scores 29.8 out of 100 on the PulseCities displacement index. The score reads five ZIP-level signals: LLC acquisition rate, permit intensity, 311 complaint volume, executed evictions, and serious HPD violations. It describes the area around the building, not the building itself.
