Has 1240 Stratford Avenue changed hands recently?

Have there been evictions at 1240 Stratford Avenue?
No executed eviction at 1240 Stratford 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 1240 Stratford Avenue rent stabilized?

What is 1240 Stratford Avenue assessed at for property taxes?
The Department of Finance assessed the lot at $643K 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 1240 Stratford Avenue?
10472 (Soundview) scores 47.6 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.
