ishtar, jessi, the numbers work throughout Brooklyn.
If you’ve got a $3MM condo in manhattan as opposed to a $88k one, the CCs and taxes are commensurately higher as will be the RE taxes in brooklyn but the gap will still be huge.
As I’ve ranted on and on for so long, there are thousands and thousands of people in Manhattan condos who still have huge gains and are possible potential buyers for the dozens of Brooklyn brownstones!!!!!
“Let me explain how this works……You sell a condo in NYC where you’re paying say $700 a month in CCs and $600 a month in RE taxes.”

“Brooklyn Bakery Owner Fatally Shot Mervyn Johnson, who owns Merv’s Bakery on Nostrand Avenue, was killed outside his Crown Heights home. According to the Daily News, it’s believed he was waking home from the bakery when he “was confronted at 8:30 p.m. at Brooklyn and Lefferts Avenues, and shot in the head, just feet from his Brooklyn home. Police said it’s possible the murder is connected to a recent robbery attempt.” Just last week, Johnson was robbed of $50 in the lobby of his apartment building; police are looking to see if the shooting is connected to the robbery.
1, 2, 3, all together now – “But Dave, you live in the ghetto.â€
