Apt Help
Hi, I posted earlier but it disappeared. We are looking to move to Carroll Gardens, Cobble Hill, Boerum Hill or Park Slope by May 1. We'd like a 1 bedroom with den or a 2 bedroom, preferably with outdoor space. If anyone has any advice or leads, we'd really appreciate it.

i was just trying to post a follow up to your response and noticed that too :-(
here is a useful link to all the tenant rights in nyc.

turns out the 10% surcharge is really only applicable by law for rent stabilized apartments, which does not apply here since your rent range is above 2k/month.
but i still would press to see the original tenant/landlord lease, just so you know you aren't being gouged. and it's also very critical to make sure the landlord is allowing his tenant to actually sublet.

Congrats on the move. I have a garden floor apartment that will become available May 1st in my Brownstone in Windsor Terrace. I have pictures at the link below as well as a video from HGTV's Urban Outsiders who did a great backyard makeover of the space. It's a newly renovated 1 bedroom with an eat-in kitchen (stainless steel appliances, dishwasher and granite countertop) Laundry is in the basement. You'll have direct access to a beautiful garden. The rent I'm asking is $2,100.00 I'm 1 block from the F train Ft. Hamilton Pkwy stop. Minutes from Prospect Park. I have not yet put it on Craigslist but plan on it soon. Let me know if you are interested.

FYI. The deck featured in the video is private to the parlor floor studio apartment which is already rented.

Who was your contractor? Bathroom and kitchen look great. Who did the outside of your house?
Thx

RJ, I have a one bedroom plus den recently renovated apartment on Degraw between Smith and Hoyt for 2K. It is 2 flights up and very sunny/bright. May 1 is our target date to rent but I should mention that there's a chance it'll move to May 15. We're doing construction downstairs and living in the apartment while we finish. It was supposed to be done April 1 but cest la vie... If you are interested, I am at colonelak@hotmail.com. Thanks. Avery

HurricaneKate,
The contractor was AllRenovation, they are quite popular here on this blog. They also renovated my parlor floor, you can see pics here:
I highly recommend their work and expertise. If you want to see more go to their website:
