Forest Hills Real Estate Agent
Forest Hills, in ZIP 11375, is a residential neighborhood in Queens known for co-ops and houses, including Birchwood Towers and the Forest Hills Gardens area. That mix — co-ops and houses, different buildings, floors, layouts and conditions — is the pricing question. For a seller, it is the difference between a value built on truly comparable homes and a value borrowed from a different kind of property. For a buyer, it is the difference between paying a fair price and paying for features that are not there.
Online estimates treat Forest Hills as one blended market. They do not separate what a co-op is worth from what a house is worth, what the interior of a home is worth from what its lot or building is worth, or adjust properly when one home has been renovated and the next has not. The result is a broad, subjective number. Sellers then either chase it and sit on the market, or discount against it without ever knowing the specific value of their own home.
My method is Micro-Comps. I take real sold comparables, calculate the value of each interior square foot and each exterior lot square foot, and apply those rates to your home. The interior indication and the lot indication are averaged into one specific value. Then experience prices the variables, including condition. I don't tell you the value — I SHOW you the value.
Local proof includes my sale of 67-119 Burns St, Forest Hills, for $940,000, sold in July 2025, and 102-30 66th Rd #10D for $608,000.
I've sold both sides of Forest Hills — the house on Burns Street and the co-op on 66th Road. A house and a co-op here price completely differently, and I've done both.
