Seriously, where do I vomit?
and a driveway too
i am not renting anything for $5,000 a month. i can easily own for that amount. and dont throw location or anything like that in the mix….i’ll get a 3 bdrm with finished basement and backyard for that price in queens, staten island, the bronx, or another part of brooklyn.
With the amount of rental units coming online in downtown Brooklyn, does anybody really believe they will get these prices?
I think the rents are too high as well, but keep in mind two things. 1) Search streeteasy for 3 bedrooms. There are very few priced much less than this in the area. For someone that “needs” 3 bedrooms, supply is limited. 2) This are the gross rents and probably don’t reflect that they are likely to offer 1 or 2 months free like almost every other rental building. If they do, the net effective rent for a $5,000 unit is under $4,200. Still not cheap, but much closer to “reality”.

These prices do seem high but I wouldn’t bet against Avalon. They have a pretty good track record at this stuff. I think the building’s looking pretty nice too.
