What has sold here
No transfer with a recorded consideration has been attached to this lot for 2003 onwards. That is common and it is not evidence that nothing changed hands. A building held by one owner since before 2003, a building transferred for no stated consideration, and a rental building that has simply never been sold all produce an empty record here. See how to read a sale history.

Assessment
Assessed value is the figure the Department of Finance uses to levy property tax. For a class two building it is derived from an income approach and it is capped in how fast it can rise. It is not a market valuation and the two figures routinely differ by a wide margin. What the assessment does and does not tell you.
Classification and location
The Department of Finance building classification list does not publish a description for code RM. On this site that code appears almost only on condominium billing lots.
