If you’re looking for a large prewar apartment for under $350 a foot, this co-op at 40 Clarkson Avenue in Prospect Lefferts Gardens could be worth a look. The three-bedroom pad has over 1,200 square feet of space and a new kitchen to boot. The monthly maintenance is $1,000, pretty reasonable given the space, but you don’t get a doorman with that. The location is good in terms of proximity to the park and the Q train. What’s this particular block like?

ty, I think you’re not seeing a full picture, that’s all. How much do you buy that info for? Might make sense for my building to shell out to see what other buildings charge.
K – I don’t think I’ve ever see those figures before on Property Shark. I guess they must have had to disclose them in 2007 for some reason.
Kensingtonian — I buy that… they probably have some sort of mortgage. And from the mortgage records on Property Shark, it seems to fit with the $100k figure.
However, that’s a break even on the average $0.50 per square foot figures in 2007. Why would this unit have a monthly maintenance of $0.83 per square foot?
That’s what’s alarming.
wages are low. our unionized super costs about 100k in wages and benefits and “treasure” (apartment). for a much smaller building
ty, where are you getting building expenses? I can’t see it for my building on propertyshark. Dude, help me out! I’ll buy you a drink if you come to a meet up :o).
I don’t know. 11 x 15 is a pretty decent size living room by nyc standards. Oh, there’s also a dining room that’s really good size. Very spacious place. See it for yourself though.
> That living room is a postage stamp
A windowless postage stamp at that.
Back in consensus reality, this is what we call a foyer. The other “bedroom” is obviously the actual living room.
That apartment is not even a junior 4. It’s just a one bedroom. Period. Over and out.
Tybur6 – what’s the status of the building’s mortgage?
Ty so if you add 115K for taxes plus another 100K for say mortgage, you have the revenues covered pretty much, correct?
Those expenses seem very similar to our spending except our Union super and porter is more than double their Wages. SUCKS, I know!
