Co-op of the Day: 62 Pierrepont Street
This ground-floor FSBO at 62 Pierrepont Street in Brooklyn has a great prewar vibe to it. At about 900 square feet, it’s not huge but there are “2 1/2” bedrooms according to the listing and some substantial outdoor space to boot. Fans of original detail will no doubt dig the picture-frame moldings and cherry wainscoting….

Fans of original detail will no doubt dig the picture-frame moldings and cherry wainscoting. The maintenance is a reasonable $866 per month. And the price? $799,000. We bet this’ll go pretty darn close to ask. Do you agree?

“we are looking at 2 (plus) bedrooms in brooklyn heights, park slope and carroll gardens.” “…we are looking for the most space for the best money.”
But many people actually look in ONE specific neighborhood. Not everyone is as flexible or indifferent to neighborhoods. Some people *only* want Park Slope, others are looking specifically in BH, and yet others in CG.
I don’t want to live in a neighborhood full of out of work Wall Streeters. They aren’t going to be a happy bunch for the next few years.
We’ve all been fired and arrested.
Do you believe that everyone in Brooklyn Heights works on Wall Street? I believe they are all Lawyers and Architects, and that they are all old farts who play pinocle or squash at the Heights Casino. But that’s just what I believe.
Park Slope is not for everyone. Brooklyn Heights is not for everyone. Hence, people buy in the neighborhood they prefer. Is that really such a crazy idea?
Where did I say everyone?
we are looking at 2 (plus) bedrooms in brooklyn heights, park slope and carroll gardens.
i also don’t at all see how these are different markets. we are looking for the most space for the best money.
the “different markets” you speak of may be with the 5 million and up townhouse market, but certainly not with 800K 2 bedrooms…
2:29–do you really believe that EVERYONE on Wall Street has been fired? Really?
2:26…The people you speak of are now losing their jobs hand over fist, and being arrested for the implosion of the U.S. economy.
I’m not so sure I want to base my decisions about Brooklyn neighborhoods on a few men who thought they ruled the world and now will be spending the next 10 years in the state pen.
I’m still not sure why anyone would choose this place over the PS one.
Do that many people really LOVE BH that much to pay for a smaller space with fewer services, no park and lower quality schools??
