Bulk Sale at 622 Foster Avenue

622fosterave1.jpgIt looks like the developer of new condo building at 622 Foster Avenue in Midwood doesn't want to stick around through the arduous sales process. The seven-story, 35-unit building (with an additional 10,000 square feet of commercial and community facility space) is being offered as whole while the last bit of construction is being completed and the offering plan is up for approval. The price? $25.5 million. At that price of over $500 foot, a buyer would have to have a pretty optimistic outlook for what he was going to be able to turn around and sell the individual units for, no? Can anyone point to a good comparable for this building?

looks like pretty good quality construction, just judging from the photos anyway...

Price sounds nuts to me, but what do I know?

25 million can still buy AAA properties around the world after all.

Sure, not skycrapers, but prime stuff in really good areas.

I personally would rather buy a commercial building in Chicago, Boston, or San Fran, that this place. Sign a tripple net lease and go to sleep!

I agree residential property is a huge risk for an investor. I will never understand people who drop millions on residential property. I invested 900k in a commertial property in 2000 now I have over 50k in monthly income. Townhouse in brooklyn or never work again. Suckers.

This building is on the corner of my block. Not ugly, and looks well built. Price seems way too high for the neighborhood. We're talking a $375-400 per sq foot nabe.

looks like they are asking significantly more than $375-$400 per foot: http://www.brooklynproperties.com/condo282.htm
