Certified Appraisals for Manhattan Co-ops, Condos & Townhouses
Appraising property in Manhattan comes with its own set of challenges — co-op share valuations, condo comparables, and townhouse conversions all require a different approach than a typical single-family home. Hudson View Appraisal Services brings that specialized experience to divorce, estate and probate, tax grievance, and pre-listing appraisals across the borough.

Co-ops Are a Different Animal
Nearly three-quarters of Manhattan’s housing stock is co-op apartments, with condos and a handful of townhouses rounding out the rest. Valuing a co-op means digging into share allocations, maintenance and flip-tax structures, and building-specific sale comps rather than treating it like a single-family appraisal. It’s a step generalist appraisers from outside the city often skip. New York County has its own Surrogate’s Court for estate and probate work and its own Supreme Court for divorce cases. One quirk worth knowing: co-op and condo owners here don’t grieve their assessment through a town Board of Assessment Review the way the suburbs do. Property tax appeals for NYC co-ops and condos go through the NYC Tax Commission instead, and a supporting appraisal is often part of that filing.
