Renting with eye to buy.
I have until August to move out of my Carroll Gardens apartment and am looking to buy a one bedroom condo in the neighborhood. Would appreciate any advice from others who have gone through the same process and the implications of breaking a rental lease once you find a suitable purchase.

Who, besides the Cocoran Group, provides reliable figures for real estate trends in individual Brooklyn neighborhoods? And how does Brooklyn compare, on whole, to a place like San Francisco?

If the presence of both potential buyers hoping for price drops and owners hoping for appreciation affects the comments on this board, what is a decent Brooklyn reference for an unbiased opinion?
