Taxes and assessed value for 305 Convent Avenue
The city's Department of Finance assessed this lot at $2.5M for the 2026 tax year. That works out to $59K per residential unit.

Questions about 305 Convent Avenue
Who owns 305 Convent Avenue?
The city's property file lists a private individual as the owner of record for 305 Convent 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 305 Convent Avenue changed hands recently?
No deed for 305 Convent 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 305 Convent Avenue?
No executed eviction at 305 Convent Avenue 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 305 Convent Avenue rent stabilized?
DHCR registrations list 39 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 305 Convent Avenue assessed at for property taxes?
The Department of Finance assessed the lot at $2.5M 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 305 Convent Avenue?
10031 (Hamilton Heights) scores 51.3 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.
