Joe Jonas Finds a Buyer for His $6.75M Dumbo Condo
The 2024 deed for unit 26B at The Olympia was recorded to a Flynn Family Office trust rather than Jonas's own name, standard cover for a celebrity buyer.
Joe Jonas has a buyer for his three-bedroom condo at Dumbo’s Olympia tower, the New York Post reported this week, with the 26th-floor unit going into contract near his $6.75 million asking price. City property records show the Jonas Brothers singer paid $6.7 million for the unit in 2024, not the $6.5 million widely reported when he first listed it, and the deed was recorded to a nominee trust rather than to Jonas by name.
Why it matters
The sale is in contract, not closed, so neither the final price nor the buyer’s identity is locked in until a new deed is recorded. What ACRIS already confirms is how the 2024 purchase was structured: the grantee on record is “The Olympia 2024 Revocable Trust dated 2/7/2024” and an individual named Evan Jehle, both care of Flynn Family Office LLC, a common arrangement wealthy buyers use to keep their names off a public deed. The seller was Fortis Dumbo Acquisition LLC, the entity tied to developer Fortis Property Group, which completed the 33-story Olympia in 2024 and has drawn a run of boldface-name buyers to the building as reported elsewhere. For developers marketing trophy condos, a resale like this one, holding value two years after closing in a soft Brooklyn luxury market, is itself a data point on how the building’s pricing has aged.
The numbers
The recorded 2024 deed, document 2024041800874005, lists a document amount of $6,700,000 for a 100 percent interest transfer, dated April 11, 2024 and recorded May 22, 2024. That is $200,000 above the $6.5 million purchase price widely cited in coverage of the current listing, and only $50,000 below the $6.75 million Jonas is now asking, a gain of well under 1 percent before broker fees and transfer taxes on a 2,654-square-foot, three-bedroom, four-bathroom unit. The same batch of filings includes a $4 million mortgage and consolidation agreement recorded the same day, standard financing paperwork rather than anything unusual about the sale itself.
What’s next
Because the deal remains in contract, the buyer’s identity and final sale price will not be public until a closing deed is recorded in ACRIS, the same record this story used to check the 2024 purchase. Dumbo’s luxury resale market, covered previously in New York condo reporting on nearby Manhattan celebrity sales, will be one data point in whether the neighborhood’s newest luxury tower holds its early pricing as more Olympia units test the resale market.
