Nothing to see here
On the one hand, your broker is telling you that NOW is the time to buy and prices aren’t getting any lower. On the other hand, here’s a 3 bedroom in north slope for sale by owner (who’s a broker), priced at 599K. I’m gonna go out on a limb and say that if it’s…

Foreclosures are only up 27 percent in the New York City area. Thank goodness for the moratorium issued by the banks on foreclosures. Well deadbeat home buyers now is the time you pay up or move out. Your asset is making everything toxic. So take your asset and sell it and go make some other state toxic.
Oh my, what an admission. I missed that!
Mopar – I thought the same thing. But reading Sam’s comment and the broker’s own admission that “The floor plan has a few minor discrepancies but is representative” seems to confirm that this place may be a hack job.
Wow, this seems like a pretty well-priced apartment. The floor plan is a good one by modern standards. To my mind, the disadvantages are that it is on a low floor and it was gut renovated so the interior space has modern finishes.
Of course, it’s not spacious. If it were, it would be more expensive. The relatively high cost per square foot probably reflects the extra bedroom and the fireplace.
I’d guess the broker needs a quick sale.
That apt has been around for awhile. The owner (a broker for Petes sake!) did some stupid renovations to it, really messing up the floorplan. It aint selling for that price. Also, its not a good indication of the market, because its such a strange apartment.
So it’s $705 psf.
Not even close to a deal.
btw, you get about 850 sq ft if you use the numbers from the floorplan.
Dont get too excited – This seems like a pretty decent deal, but definately not a steal. Its a decent apartment, but it is a coop and a very small 3 bedroom with only 1 bathroom. At 900 square feet, if you beleive the broker’s floor, plan it is still around 650/sq. foot.
Not bad – but definately not a harbinger of doom…
PS 321 is oversubscribed… folks really should give up trying to get all snuggly with that school. It ain’t gonna happen.
