in the sub 1mm market… does anyone know what the real story is with be@schermerhorn? im not sure why people seem to dislike this place so much, as per comments from other message boards ive seen. the building seems nice as are most of the be@ properties and the location seems perfect – a block or two from smith and court streets. and its located on a block thats not bad, just dead, but the hotel projects are starting up so it seems like an a great investment since the block will be rolling along shortly and most of the fulton mall is being redone by the city. aside from those on these message boards who seem to hate everything and think the world is coming to an end, does anyone actually know why be@scherm just isnt selling. also, does anyone know the outcome of buying an apartment in a building that ultimately goes rental – i assume the value goes down, but is it really a horrible tihng to own under those circumstances? thanks!
I pass the condo on Bedford Ave. every day–it looks pretty nice on the outside, and it’s a nice block–right across the street from the YMCA, not far from the A or G train, etc.
Anyone have a clue how big the condo was?
“how big is your bed BHO?”
Would be king-size if I paid that much for an apartment. But I was talking about the whole set (armoir, nightstands, chest, dresser, etc.).
***Bid half off peak comps***
Nice feature.
Is that Novo 1 BR or 2BR? I think it is 1BR.
Great new feature.
Gotta say I did a double take on the Park Slope building. That is uglier than any Horror Show Friday. Wow.
I didn’t even know there was any kind of housing you could buy in BK for less than 400K. I was shocked at the 206K price. And I’ve been lurking this board for about a year now. Be gentle I am a newbie.
But yes I like this feature.
One more Thumbs Up for this feature.
Another thumb’s-up for the new feature, Brownstoner!
As for the Novo — I think that place went for what it’s worth. Maybe even a little more than it’s worth.
how big is your bed BHO? Forte floorplan shows MB of 3bdrm as 12’x12’9″. Sounds spacious enough to me. I didn’t see the 3 bedrooms when I was there but apt layouts seemed good sized to me (compared to many others bldgs) when I viewed.
