Spring is here and the FSBO’ers are coming out to play. First up, this floor-through at 164 State Street in Brooklyn Heights. A one-bedroom plus den or small second bedroom, the 900-square-foot place has been recently renovated and carries a relatively small monthly maintenance of $695. The bathroom has been recently renovated as has the kitchen. Asking price: $639,000. Think it’ll sell? Decide for yourself at the open house on Saturday from 1 to 3.

  1. My wife and I are looking for a one bedroom in bh. We are pre approved for a large mortgage and ready to pull the trigger. In general how flexible is the asking? Would it be laughed at offering 50,000 under asking for a place like this?

  2. true, window guards need to go in, but give me a break. many, many people dont’ put them in until baby is, say, rolling over. it is hard for a baby who can’t move to get up and crawl out a window.

    the apartment looks great. good luck with the sale.

  3. Carol Gardens, my apologies (and to all renters). My sarcastic sense of humor got the best of me. I’ve just seen a lot of renters envy, having the pleasure of renting out two floors of my TH. At the end of the day, I have to be thankful that there are renters as they are paying my mortgage and taxes. Renting gives you a great deal of freedom and is sometimes the only option given the high cost of real estate. I could only afford my TH from selling my 1 bedroom (between Henry & Clinton, by the way) and then selling my 3 bedroom (also between Henry & Clinton) a few years later for nice profits.

    I apologize to Noah for hi-jacking the link with my sarcastic comments. Like I said earlier, Good Luck Noah. You’ve done a great job. Keep up the good work and please let us know how it goes. I support you 100% and if you need a place to rent after you sale, let me know!

  4. Noah, I give you lots of credit for identifying yourself and braving the storm of having to face hyper-critical comments by having your place put up on Brownstoner for public scrutiny. I apologize for coming on strong; I was just trying to be objective (something many others here cannot be with respect to their neighborhoods) given I live closeby. While I still stand by my comments regarding the price, I would love to see you get what you are asking or more. Further, I think you did a great job with the FSBO. I would swing by on Saturday, but people with tape measures make me nervous. Good luck.

    I’m not selling my C.G. townhouse, which happens to be between Henry & Hicks. I would have rather found something between Clinton and Henry, but did not at the time. Just making comments.

    State Street is a great block. I like State from Hicks to Clinton better than Clinton to Court. Quieter, less foot traffic, and a great deli on Henry St.

    Like I said, I wish the seller all the luck in the world.

    Just tired of all the truly negative and stupid comments about a good apartment that is a good deal!
