In my world it goes:
1. mexican
2. Guatemalan
3. Peru/Ecuador
4. Columbian
I can’t decide if Colombians or Brazilians are the uber-hottest.
@11217. I’m going to chime on BsAs since I just returned after living there for 6 months.
The city is amazing, the people are beautiful (but you obviously have not spent much time in Brazil, since Brazilians put the Argies to shame in the looks the dept).
Also, there is absolutely no diversity in BsAs, coming from NYC that was a major drawback.
As for real estate there seems to be extreme over expansion in Soho & Hollywood nabes- expect prices to start dropping even more next year. Argentina is no longer an economy on the move (unlike Brazil) and people are really hurting financially – run away inflation. Things will only get worse for most of the people there. But as a foreigner you can isolate yourself from the problems.
mopar, it needs all new everything. Needs to be gutted. Hopefully, the parlour floor retains all the architectural details like the listing says. But its a gut reno.
Rob you lying whore. no one lives in 80 sq ft. I do agree that you are simple, however.
Why is it so cheap? Is it a “handyman special”? Maybe you can take some photos and post.
Thanks mopar….sounds worth checking out, although the no liquor nor byob might be a problemo. All right guys…I’m outta here for today. Have a good one.
Not sure about buying it, mopar. Things are actually really busy here at the mutant hedge fund. Some new clients coming in. I don’t think I need the distraction (and especially the problems) of a gut reno in a landmarked building.
That said, If you can get this building finished for $1.0-1.2 MM it’s a real good deal.
Dave, what a fun evening. If you buy it, are you still going to keep your Bed Stuy place? Don’t let the loons here chase you out of Bed Stuy.
