Co-op of the Day: 119 Pacific Street
Flattery will get you everywhere! A regular reader sent us the listing for his two-bedroom FSBO in Cobble Hill that went on the market a couple of weeks ago. To stimulate interest, he’s already trimmed the asking price from $849,000 to $799,000. Located on Pacific between Henry and Clinton, the 1,000-square-foot apartment was recently renovated…
Flattery will get you everywhere! A regular reader sent us the listing for his two-bedroom FSBO in Cobble Hill that went on the market a couple of weeks ago. To stimulate interest, he’s already trimmed the asking price from $849,000 to $799,000. Located on Pacific between Henry and Clinton, the 1,000-square-foot apartment was recently renovated and looks to be a nice balance of classic and modern. The $690 monthly maintenance seems very reasonable. There’s an open house on Sunday from 1 to 3 pm. Do you think they’ll get the new asking price?

how gracious of you to rat your neighbor out like that.
wow.
@ku – I live next door (our green awning can be seen in the exterior pic on the ad) and by “steps from trains,” they mean 6 blocks or 8 blocks, depending on which train you’re taking. It’s an easy walk – but I’d hardly call it “steps from.”
I agree. I don’t loveit and think the new price is highish.
What am I missing here? Everyone is going on and on about how nice this apt is, I’m only thinking “eh”, no pictures of the bedrooms, so my guess is they are tiny. Even the kitchen and bathroom aren’t doing it for me, but I think they’re supposed to. Am I having an off day, or is this the Emperor’s New Clothes?
nice fridge…
Anon at 6:49 — could it be he lowered his asking because he wants to sell his apartment???
Beautiful building overall inside and out. I like it a lot, i am not sure why he lowered his asking price. Maybe it will start a bidding war?
I think lp is right… “turn key” probably means that it’s in move in condition. Simply “turn the key” to your new place, no work needed. At least that sounds logical…
turn·key [turn-kee] Pronunciation Key – Show IPA Pronunciation noun, plural -keys., adjective

If you’re buying, say, a B&B, turn-key would mean furnishings included. But not necessarily with an apartment.
