Overview

• Livvy Dunne made an all-cash offer in March on the three-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom prewar co-op at 345 W. 88th St., which was listed for $1.59 million.
• After the seller accepted her bid, the building’s co-op board voted to deny her application about three weeks later, offering no reasons for the rejection.
• Dunne disclosed the board’s decision in a July 8 TikTok video, saying she learned she was denied just days before she was to receive the keys.
• Listing agent Miryam Tesfaegzi confirmed that New York City co-op boards are not required to explain why they turn down prospective buyers.
• With Dunne barred from purchase, the seventh-floor apartment that housed Babe Ruth from 1920 to 1940 has been relisted for sale.
