Condos of the Day: 83 Halsey Street
This three-unit brownstone condo at 83 Halsey Street in Bedford Stuyvesant just hit the market last week. There are three units, two 725-square-footers priced at $425,000 and on 971-square-foot place priced at $550,000. It’s a beautiful building from the outside but the one interior photo is really NOT doing it for us. How do you…

“in a year you’ll be able to pick up the whole building for $750…”
The omission of three zeros was appropriate.
liexpat…One of the advantages is that the CCs and the taxes are usually lower than larger & newer properties. That said, if I’m counting correctly, the yearly CCs for the entire building add up to around $17,000 for the entire building…I hope that includes building a fairly large reserve for the proverbial rainy day.
The larger unit has CCs of $519 and taxes of $109 and the smaller one: $370 & $65. I think these are going to be far more attractive than most larger condo buildings.
Since it’s suddenly become an issue, I will state for the record that I am Caucasian.
But I’m staying out of this PropJoe/DIBS p!ssing contest.
Browndos in the best of areas at the best of times always struck me as a questionable idea. And this is neither of the above.
I don’t get buying a condo in a brownstone. Feels like a fad that will blow up in the faces of those who buy them.
I live in the historic district by the Utica stop on the A/C line. I really like this area.
The above listing is closer to the Nostrand stop, which I don’t care for.
Overpriced and Illogical Investment.
So nice to see everything going so well now that we all registered. Come on, don’t rise to the bait so easily…
I didn’t make any comment that you were greedy PropJoe…and just because you have a 2br, 1.5 bath like millions of other people in the US isn’t any indication that you’re smart either.
Your post from 1:50 says enough about you…
“StuySoccerMom must be a Sista ’cause if I were a whitey, ain’t no way I’d be raising my kids in Bed Stuy, son. Just ain’t happening. Blacks in this hood don’t want to see any whiteys taking over. Definitely a high high crime area.”
Why can’t we all get along on here. No need for tension between people. We all have better things to do with our lives than fight on a blog site. So Daveinbedstuy and Propjoe, virtually kiss and make up and stop bashing on each other.
People choose to live somewhere because it fits their needs and lifestyle, so whose to say it’s a bad choice besides the buyer or their advisors.
I’ve been getting a lot of criticism for being interested in moving to Staten Island, but finally I made the decision to do so because it just makes sense for someone with a family. I did my research and spoke to the residents in the area who were extremely welcoming, and I believe I’m making the right decision despite what other people may think. Everyone who lives in my area in Brooklyn are very focused on what’s hip and cool, when things like that don’t matter to me anymore.
I have to agree the reno job is not the greatest….I personally would have changed the light fixtures just my opinion
