The pied-à-terre tax just created your next off-market deal.
Every Manhattan condo the city values at $1M+ that isn't a primary residence now carries an annual surcharge. We score the owners most likely to sell — and hand you the contact, before they ever list.

An annual tax just turned trophy second homes into a carrying cost.
The surcharge hits every Manhattan condo the city values at $1M or more that isn't an owner's primary residence — and it's annual, not a one-time hit. Foreign owners and free-and-clear holders feel it most. Each one now faces the same decision: keep paying, rent it out, or sell. The ones who sell are your deals — if you reach them before they list.
Off-market deal flow, scored and contactable.
Ranked by motivation
Every flagged condo gets an Opportunity Score — non-primary confidence × tax pressure × your buy-box. Sort straight to the owners most likely to transact, filtered by neighborhood, value, and entity type.
The full picture
Who owns it, where they actually live, how long they've held, financed or free-and-clear, and their exact annual surcharge exposure. Every figure traced back to public property and ownership records.
Reach them first
Skip-traced phone and email for each owner, DNC-flagged, resolved on demand. Start the off-market conversation while everyone else waits for the listing.
The city's own method, productized.
- 01Pull the universe. Every Manhattan condo the city values at $1M+, pulled from public assessment records.
- 02Flag non-primary owners. The same signal used to identify absentee ownership — units with no owner-occupancy exemption (STAR, senior, veterans) — plus out-of-state and foreign mailing addresses and LLC/trust ownership.
- 03Layer in the deal math. Deeds and mortgages reveal years held, equity, and free-and-clear status — the levers that predict a sale.
- 04Score it. Composite motivation score, calibrated against the city's own flagging.
There's a clock on this.
Owners are about to learn they've been flagged. The motivated ones decide between now and year-end — and then they list.
Your window to reach owners first: now through year-end.
If you buy Manhattan condos off-market, this is your edge.
