Co-op of the Day: 30 Ocean Parkway, #1F
Here’s a neat one. This three bedroom pad in the art deco building at 30 Ocean Parkway is actually like its own little house. The 1,700-square-foot apartment has its own entrance. Given what good shape the prewar apartment is in and its proximity to Prospect Park, we’d say this is looking like a pretty attractive…

Can I ask – what do maintenace fees usually cover?
and why are they usually costing more than a mortgage
that just seems soooooo wrong to me!
What a great apartment!
Love this.
Well, I have a family member who life’s on Ocean Ave a few blocks away from this location and I have to say that the monthly fees have increased sufficiently over the last 5 years. It’s to the point now that the monthly fee is more then the mortgage. It’s approaching 1250 and the building and area just don’t warrent fees like that. Take it for what it’s worth.

As a member of a co-op, I know when the last time our maintenance was increased.
It was in 1997.
Rents go up nearly every year.
11217 — I don’t care about 3 years. Don’t be ridiculous. I’m talking about the long term. Folks always argue that buying is better because your effective monthly payment goes down over time (because of inflation and wage increases) — this maintenance cost will go UP UP UP over time. No, maybe not in the next 2 or 3 years…. sheesh.
this was in the NYT “on the market in NYC” slidshow thing.
looks awesome.
11217….that’s a fair in other areas of Brooklyn but $1500 on Ocean Ave is high.
It also has it’s own private entrance….nice touch.
“and, as we know, maintenance goes up up up over time!”
I’ve lived in my place 3 years so far and my maintenance hasn’t gone up a penny.
How much has your rent increased during that time period…?
