Disclosed round sizes in New York real estate swing sharply: Safehold’s $400M (2024-11-12, “Series Unknown”) is the only disclosed round above $100M, dwarfing the next-largest disclosed amounts such as LuxUrban Hotels’ $174M (2024-07-29) and Rockrose’s $240M (2022-05-18). At the low end, the smallest disclosed figure is $120K for Cityline (2023-02-01, “Pre-Seed”), far below the $100K–$2M band that includes Masonry ($100K, 2020-07-21) and several $2M–$3M rounds.
The 31 entries also cluster in time rather than spreading evenly: 12 of the 31 rounds fall between 2024-10-08 and 2025-01-17, with a particularly dense run from 2024-10-08 to 2024-11-26. Stage labeling is also uneven: “Series Unknown” appears in 13 of 31 rows, while “undisclosed” shows up once (Pelles.ai, 2023-08-03). The date range runs from 2020-07-21 (Masonry) through 2025-09-21 (GreenLite Technologies, $50M, Series B), with the newest 2025 rounds concentrated around late Q3 and early Q4 2025.

Frequently asked
What stands out in disclosed round sizes, and how concentrated is the top end?
Safehold’s $400M (2024-11-12, “Series Unknown”) is the only disclosed round above $100M in this list. After that, the next-largest disclosed amounts cluster much lower—LuxUrban Hotels at $174M (2024-07-29) and Rockrose at $240M (2022-05-18)—so the top end is highly concentrated in a single company/round.
Is there a time window where many rounds closed, or are they evenly distributed?
There is a clear 2024-to-early-2025 concentration: 12 of 31 rounds occur between 2024-10-08 (100, $5M) and 2025-01-17 (Alpaca Real Estate, $50M). The densest stretch is roughly 2024-10-08 through 2024-11-26, where multiple rounds appear across Seed and “Series Unknown” classifications.
Which stage labels dominate, and how often is stage unclear?
“Series Unknown” accounts for 13 of 31 rows (for example, Urban Edge Properties at $124M on 2025-08-05 and Safehold at $400M on 2024-11-12). “undisclosed” appears once (Pelles.ai on 2023-08-03), while labeled stages include Seed, Pre-Seed, Debt Financing, Series A, and Series B but with fewer occurrences than “Series Unknown” overall.
Are there outliers on the low end that change how to interpret the list?
Yes: Cityline’s $120K (2023-02-01, “Pre-Seed”) is the smallest disclosed amount, and Masonry’s $100K (2020-07-21, blank stage) is also far below the $2M–$10M range that covers multiple Seed and Pre-Seed rounds (e.g., Algoma’s $2M on 2025-05-15 and Buildstock’s $2M on 2024-02-22). These low outliers suggest much of the pipeline here is modestly sized compared with the rare large financings.
What does the newest-to-oldest spread look like, and is the newest activity clustered?
Rounds span from 2020-07-21 (Masonry, $100K) to 2025-09-21 (GreenLite Technologies, $50M, Series B). The newest activity is concentrated: the 2025 entries include GreenLite (2025-09-21), Urban Edge Properties (2025-08-05), and Occupier (2025-06-10), alongside Alpaca Real Estate (2025-01-17), indicating late-2024 into 2025 is where the data is thickest rather than near-uniform across years.
