How much did 1280 Ocean Avenue sell for?

Have there been evictions at 1280 Ocean Avenue?
Yes. One marshal-executed eviction at 1280 Ocean Avenue appears in the NYC evictions dataset, the most recent on Oct 17, 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 1280 Ocean Avenue rent stabilized?
DHCR registrations list 66 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 1280 Ocean Avenue assessed at for property taxes?
The Department of Finance assessed the lot at $2M 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 1280 Ocean Avenue?
11230 (Midwood) scores 33.6 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.
