Taxes and assessed value
The city's Department of Finance assessed this lot at $1.4M for the 2026 tax year. That works out to $26K per residential unit.

Questions about 1170 Ocean Avenue
Who owns 1170 Ocean Avenue?

Has 1170 Ocean Avenue changed hands recently?

Have there been evictions at 1170 Ocean Avenue?
Yes. One marshal-executed eviction at 1170 Ocean Avenue appears in the NYC evictions dataset, the most recent on Dec 3, 2025. 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 1170 Ocean Avenue rent stabilized?
DHCR registrations list 54 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 1170 Ocean Avenue assessed at for property taxes?
The Department of Finance assessed the lot at $1.4M 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 1170 Ocean Avenue?
11230 (Midwood) scores 34.2 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.
Sourced from NYC public records: ACRIS deeds, DOB permits, the NYC evictions dataset, and 311. Records reflect what agencies have published and can lag events.
