East Hills, NY – March 24, 2026 – Home prices dipped year over year in February, while price per square foot rose and homes continued selling quickly.
The East Hills housing market remains competitive this spring, with mixed pricing signals and steady buyer activity.
Top takeaways
- Median sale price in February: about $1.8M, down 8.8% year over year.

Market snapshot
Recent data show East Hills homes sold at a median price near $1.8M in February 2026, a year-over-year decline, while price per square foot increased. That combination can reflect smaller or more varied homes trading compared with last year, even as buyers compete for well-updated properties.
Homes are typically going under contract in under a month, and sale-to-list ratios hover close to asking, indicating sellers are still negotiating from a position of strength. Inventory remains relatively limited, with only a handful of closings recorded in the past month.
What’s for sale
Active listings center on single-family homes, many featuring larger lots, pools, renovated kitchens, and luxury finishes. Current listings show asking prices commonly clustered between the mid-$1M range and above $2M, with some newly signed contracts reported above $2.4M.
Buyers are also seeing fresh inventory hit the market in recent weeks, though overall selection remains tight compared with broader Nassau County communities.
Outlook
With days on market still relatively short and per-square-foot values trending higher, East Hills continues to behave like a competitive, high-end micro-market. As spring listings ramp up, the balance between new supply and motivated buyers will determine whether median prices stabilize or rebound in the coming months.
