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.
164 State Street [FSBO] GMAP P*Shark
1:43, you idiot, those are the outside measurements. The seller is trying to deceive people. Don’t tell me square footage does not matter. It doesn’t matter when stuff sells for $200PSF. But when it sells for $800PSF it is an obsession.
I don’t give two sh*ts about square footage.
I walk into a place and decide for myself if it looks workable.
Just as 1:46 has said.
If you are that hung up on square footage, then go buy a 4000 sf mcmansion in Ohio.
I rent around the corner. My place is about this size, and rents for $2000 a month. This apartment is overpriced.
can’t imagine caring about PPSF and not a more basic, does this space work for me?
Warning to idiots (1:37):
Measurements are always taken from the outside walls. Every single listing overstates square footage. You are really naive to just now realize this and make it seem like you’ve just discovered fire.
Even at 760 sf, $840 psf is not too expensive.
Many places in Prime North Slope sell for 1000 psf these days. (Mine did) You don’t think BH should?
Location doesn’t get much better than this.
WARNING to prospective buyers. According to Property Shark each floor is 25′ x 34′, which equals 850 square feet. Then subtract approx 7′ x 13′ for the stairs, or 90 square feet. So now you are down to 760 square feet, and $639,000 is too expensive.
Do most buyers do basic calculations before they commit?
I rent very close to here. My place is a 1 bedroom with NO DEN. And no second bedroom. I’d say it’s maybe 700 square feet.
The rent is 2800.
So yes, 1:15, it would indeed rent for over 3,000.
Probably at least 3200 maybe more.
It’s about 800 sf when you take out stairs and landing — so that is almost $800 sg ft for a one bedroom walk-up! This would rent fo rless than $3K/month!
No one said it was a real 2 bedroom, 1:12.
Is highlighted as a 1 bedroom with den or “small second bedroom”
