Taxes and assessed value for 215 West 140 Street
The city's Department of Finance assessed this lot at $439K for the 2026 tax year. That works out to $29K 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 215 West 140 Street
DHCR registration records list 15 rent-stabilized units at this building in 2023, the most recent year PulseCities holds.

The city's property file lists NME HOUSING DEVELOPMENT FUND COMPANY, IN C. as the owner of record for 215 West 140 Street. 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 215 West 140 Street changed hands recently?
No deed for 215 West 140 Street 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.

No executed eviction at 215 West 140 Street appears in the NYC evictions dataset, which PulseCities holds from April 2024 forward. Executed evictions are the end of the process, so a building with none may still have active housing court cases.
Is 215 West 140 Street rent stabilized?

What is 215 West 140 Street assessed at for property taxes?
The Department of Finance assessed the lot at $439K 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.
