Co-op of the Day: 99 Berkeley Place, #3
Anyone looking at this three-bedroom co-op at 99 Berkeley Place will be predisposed to like it based solely on the beautiful facade. The interior of the apartment itself, while not eye-popping, has a nice prewar feel and an updated kitchen. All very nice. The question is whether someone will be willing to shell out $1,050,000…

Anyone looking at this three-bedroom co-op at 99 Berkeley Place will be predisposed to like it based solely on the beautiful facade. The interior of the apartment itself, while not eye-popping, has a nice prewar feel and an updated kitchen. All very nice. The question is whether someone will be willing to shell out $1,050,000 for a single floor of a townhouse. To be fair, it’s an extra-deep house, not your run-of-the-mill 45-footer. In addition, on a per-square-foot basis, the 1,400-square-foot pad only clocks in at $750, not an absurd amount for something with this many bedrooms in this part of the Slope.

Job transfer most likely.
When your mind automatically goes to the default of “what went wrong” instead of “what happened” I’d question yourself a little more than questioning these owners.
Sure, I suppose something could have gone “wrong” but why do you automatically go to that place first?
So, the current owners have been here less than two years.
Which leaves me wondering, “What went wrong?”
I’ve heard a couple situations like that as well, Ringo.
Inventory dried up…especially in the North Slope.
Last year there was The Vermeil and The Lincoln with 3 bedrooms for sale and now there are very few/if any units left in either of those developments so we’re down to really slim pickins again.
I know 2 families who have lost out in bidding wars for 3-bedroom apartments in Park Slope in recent months. If I had to be selling right now, I’d want to be selling a 3-bedroom in Park Slope.
Yes, it’s PS. 282.
I hear only great things about it from my neighbors who send their kids there.
District 13, right? Not Dist. 15. A serious drawback for a couple with kids, unless they have more $$ for private school.
Oh wait…this IS unit 3! And that was in 2008.
So actually my comment stands. They may lose a little money on it from when it was purchased when you factor in broker fees, etc.
Assuming they get this near asking, prices really HAVE held up well given most of the country as seen 30% drops.
Only $700 maintenance? Nice.
I think this goes for ask, or just under, i.e. 999k.
Not enough closet space.
