tiffanyIt looks like another voice has joined the babble of Brooklyn real estate bloggers–as far as we’re concerned, the more the merrier. The Real Estate Romp kicked off in mid-October as an outlet for an open house addict to chronicle her weekly fixes:

Open houses soon became our drug, with 10-15 hits on any given Sunday. We scoured Brooklyn Heights, Cobble Hill, Carroll Gardens, Park Slope and everything near and in between. Even after we bought the great first home we currently live in, we continued to look. I was hooked on seeing the architecture, layout and personal stories in each dwelling. My husband was looking for the next best deal and more space, as we were already running out of room.

Last week, TRER took a look at 60 Tiffany Place (photo), giving readers an early lead on the first three units to become available at pre-amendment prices. Sounds like bargain hunters may want to put this on their list of favorites.

  1. Caution to our posted notice(above)-60 Tiffany Pl. Condominium is offered by prospectus only. It will fully explain the tax abatement amendment (accept 1/5/06). Call 718 522 1840 to receive a copy.

  2. Re: “Anonymous” Nov. 4th, (Buyer Beware)… I believe this was posted by RE Agent that was turned down for selling these units. If this same disgruntled agent was getting a commission they would be singing the bldgs praises.

  3. The web… so much information… so much Misinformation; Much of the remarks are just sour grapes… Like the now higher bldg, now blocks their views of the water, etc. 60 tiffany recently received it’s Certificate of Occupancy from the City.

  4. you all have hit the “nail on the head!” taxes too high, no abatement, shody construction and a number of units being held for rentals which then, when it comes time to sell…good luck getting a mortgage. shady, stupidity, and poor planning all around if you ask me

  5. Having lived near the Tiffany Place buildings for about five years, I’ve watched these construction projects move at a glacial pace. And because it took so long it was easy to see just how poorly the construction work is. I would caution anyone that dares consider sinking their life savings into any of those building to look closely at what they are buying.

    Their first project completed at 42 Tiffany Place is literally shakey. Residents in that building told me that they have watched the constuction next door and understood fully where their own problems came from. I’m not just talking about cheap fixtures, I’m talking about under structured and poorly detailed connections of new to old.

    If that doesn’t give one enough pause, then simply take a look at their building being build just off of the corner on Degraw. The framing has been up for about a year now and you can see the just how bad of a job they are doing. Quite frankly, I’m surprised the thing is still standing.

    Buyer Beware!
