One Hanson Breaks 50 Percent Barrier
Looks like the expansive hors d’oeuvres spread at the open house that the developers of One Hanson Place threw for brokers a couple of weeks back gave the sales effort that extra push it needed. (Or maybe it was the wool-knit cap lead Corco broker Adam Pacelli was sporting.) Either way, we just learned it…
Looks like the expansive hors d’oeuvres spread at the open house that the developers of One Hanson Place threw for brokers a couple of weeks back gave the sales effort that extra push it needed. (Or maybe it was the wool-knit cap lead Corco broker Adam Pacelli was sporting.) Either way, we just learned it was enough to push the 189-unit development over the 50% sold milestone. The renewed momentum is welcome news, we’re sure, after a very slow 4th quarter last year. We were able to pop our heads into the open house to see a finished two-bedroom and gotta say it looked pretty nice. What we really want to know, though, is who’s gonna step up for that 4-story penthouse in the tower when it hits the market. Can’t imagine what the price tag on that baby will be.
just got a 2 b 2 b facing west. i was told the limit for bourem hill for new construction was 15 stories… not too concerned about it really. we checked tons of places.. came close to buying at forte’.. really glad we didnt. for a little more money, you get so much more at one hanson. currently on the upper east side and cant wait for the change.
I bought a 2.5 br/2ba facing south and west. I looked all over and these apartment are the best in broolyn. Like Richard Meier and almost bought, but not getting enough for 200K more and 2oo sq feet less. Atlantic yards will not impact my views. The J condo, beacon, any walentas building ie 110 livingston, 30 main, etc. Can;t compare.
views facing boerum hill should remain good because of current zoning laws. Nothing can be built over 8 stories in most of boerum hill. The side facing the atlantic yards may be another story. also…the building only has a partial tax abatement bc it is not new construction from ground up.
My question yesterday was about the view facing west, towards Bourem Hill and the river. With all of the planning for new developement in the area, will that view become obstructed? And any comments about the high taxes?
We bought a one and half bedroom facing fort greene. We fell in love with the building and currently live in Fort Greene and wouldn’t want to live anywhere else. 820 per squre foot did not seem overpriced to us. I can’t wait to move in. I hope they are on time for delivery.
I bought a 1 bdr facing the west. View is gorgeous. It’s overvalued and not a good investment idea. I bought because I want to live there end of story. I worry about those people who are buying in for an investment.
My question is about the view from the west side of the building, is it protected? And why (even with the J51) are the taxes so high?
4:31 – Not necessarily true. There are areas of the country that friends of mine bought in, near the peak. They are now can’t sell their place for the value of the loan. It will cost them 30-40k to sell the home. Two years at 5% decline can be very dangrous. Granted, the payments on a fixed mortgage won’t go up, but if prices go down (not that they are in Brooklyn), it can be really trapping.
I spoke to the engineer dealing with the exterior work. it’s pretty major. work for years. buyer beware.
