Condo of the Day: 306 2nd Street, Apt. 2F
How far has the market between 4th and 5th Avenues in Park Slope moved up in the last three years? According to the seller of Apartment 2F at 316 2nd Street, more than 60 percent. Back in early 2005, the seller paid $670,000 for a 1,310-square-foot apartment in the newly constructed building. It’s now back…
How far has the market between 4th and 5th Avenues in Park Slope moved up in the last three years? According to the seller of Apartment 2F at 316 2nd Street, more than 60 percent. Back in early 2005, the seller paid $670,000 for a 1,310-square-foot apartment in the newly constructed building. It’s now back on the market for $1,095,000. Since the high price certainly can’t be being driven by the aesthetics of the building’s exterior (yuck!), all we can guess is that the seller’s banking on the fact that there’s great demand for “family-sized” apartments in the Slope. (To be fair, the interior looks perfectly nice.) Since this has three real bedrooms, it certainly qualifies. Or maybe it’s just the first example of the Olive Garden premium! Either way, there’s an open house on Sunday from 2 to 4 pm.

The housing market is about to tumble.
Subprime is toppling, so will the derivatives, you tell me what’s next. You have six months to a year to sell. Sell
quickly if your house is just an investment and not a domicile you want to stay in for ten years to recoup your money. The Republicans brought this recession, and it will be a humdinger.Now there will be some youngin
telling me I’m wrong. I only wish I am wrong. Unfortunatly the timing of this recession will coincide with the elections. Yes, children the Democrats wil inherit the larges deficit in history. The largest morgage failures in
history. Throughout our national history of measuring gnp, lowest in history under this Bush. The last Bush als gave us a recession as well.
People can ask anything they want for their habitat. Maybe there is a fool out there who will pay the price. If not they just learned they have to reduce the price. Unfortunately, this slows the sales procedure. five years ago that price would have boughrt you a prime slope house.
4:52- The Crest doesn’t have any 3 bedrooms and the apt. are on the smaller side but it seems competatively priced. I just wonder if 4th ave. can support all the buildings going upm there seems to be one on ever corner. The Union Street Train station is already pretty crowded.
Attention tenants: I’m a landlord and I’m raising your rents this year. You ain’t rent stabilized. If they are getting up to $4000 for a 1Br in an okay bldg in Manhattan and I can get a lot more than you are currently paying then why not?.
The person who pointed out how much it would rent for has said it all, I think.
No one is listening, but they should.
you’re an idiot, 5:43. plain and simple.
if you’re so disgusted by the subways, people and trash, why don’t YOU move elsewhere instead of talking out of your ass about what other people should do with their money and lives.
I have to laugh at all of you: *anyone* who is not fabulously wealthy is stupid to buy any apartment in NYC these days. Let’s see: the average apt. goes for something like $800-$1500 a square foot and then on top of that ghastly mortgage for a tiny home you get whacked with $500 to $1500 in monthly charges. Anyone with ssense would leave the city and move to a ppart of the country where you could buy a reasonable home for a reasobale price. Of course you have the great perks of living in New York: crowded filthy subways, trash in every street and people every square inch…. yeah- makes sense to me. So, when I red of all your brilliant insights into the NY market I just have to laugh. Of course *I* live in Park Slope but bought five years ago.
then what to make of The Crest (the 12-story building at end of pic)? I think those had units for $650-700psf on the lower floors when initially sold. Is that even a better deal?
i’ll never understand why people who live in the largest city in the country are so deathly afraid of some mid level buildings.
a 12 story building!!! noooooo!!!!!!
