Co-op of the Day: 130 8th Avenue, #7C
Here’s a pretty standard but perfectly nice two-bedroom co-op at 130 8th Avenue that just hit the market. It has a nice layout and appears to be in good shape; the views also look sweet. The maintenance is a little high at $1,399 and the asking price of $865,000 seems mildly optimistic but not crazy…

I would be able to make a better guess if I could see the condition of the kitchen and baths…
The parking spot is the reason for this (somewhat) inflated price.
“No closets = big bummer.”
I see 6 closets listed on the floorplan.

Maly,
I just did a search on Corcoran for *all* 2 bedroom/2 bath apartments on the Upper West Side listed with that firm.
47 listings came up with the least expensive priced at $869,000 and the most expensive at $6,800,000.

I don’t want to start a battle about Manhattan vs. Brooklyn, but you could buy a 2br coop on the Upper West Side for that kind of money these days. I personally can’t wait to leave Manhattan behind to live in Brooklyn, but shouldn’t the prices be lower than in Manhattan proper?
Parking spot included, nice feature.
I think this is one of those apts that makes me question the whole notion of valuation in Brooklyn. It is one thing to pay this kind of money (or just above) for a whole house and get a yard and all that kind of stuff, but for this money to still be living in three rooms is just kind of insane IMO.
I marked down 700G because that is what I think it will sell for but even at that price a two bedroom pad in any neighborhood looks mighty expensive.
I don’t know a whole lot about pricing, but for a true 2/2 and the inclusion of a dedicated parking spot, this sounds pretty close to a good deal by NYC standards.
I like it. Nice light place in a perfect location. Think it goes close to ask – $800-850 range.
