Co-op of the Day: 115 South 8th Street, #2

If you’re set on living in Williamsburg but don’t have a million bucks lying around, you could do a lot worse than this tiny studio on the south side. The brick fireplace adds a little charm, and everything looks to be in good shape except for the kitchen floor, which clearly needs to be replaced.
If the floor plan is accurate, there’s roughly 213 square feet of living space. Maybe that explains the relatively low asking price of $175,000, or $822 per square foot. Maintenance is $600 a month.
It’s not often you find a co-op in Williamsburg. At one point, this was an HDFC income-restricted building, but if it still is, the listing makes no mention of it. Do you think it’s a good deal?

seriously depressing!
The concept of two people living in that tiny space is appalling. Heck, the prospect of one person living there is appalling. http://www.idealpropertiesgroup.com/images/floorplan/20140912102416.jpg
my guess is it’s either still income restricted – or if not – you need all cash.
what’s wretched is that if this were a market rate rental it would be going for 2k + a month
who cares about the kitchen floor……that place looks no more than 8 feet wide!
