11217, since this Blog is full of unverifiable statements and information (brain or no brain) I’ll have to take your word for it.
Re: Craigslist, almost every broker rental listing is up there anyway and easier to surf through quickly compared to NY Times. All you have to do is avoid the adds with a bunch of symbols, all caps and stupid captions like:
@@@@@@@THIS APARTMENT IS BIGGER THAN J-LO’S BOOTY@@@@@@@
The funny this is…it’s not like I’m trying to prop up prices. I own my apartment and don’t really care if floor thru’s are going for 500 bucks.
I’m just telling you what I’m seeing.
You are seeing the AVERAGE price of 2 bedrooms within the borders of Park Slope, please be my guest and provide evidence to suggest that’s the going rate. And that doesn’t mean 1 apartment you found for 2200.
Otherwise, I will use my data to back up what I say.
> Snark knows…
Indeed Snark does. But hey, I’m an idiot who used brokers to help me find my current apartment.
well I make 30k a year thus use craigslist.
W00T!
also any idiot knows which ads are fake and which are real. Does anyone really try to rent apartments with Real Estate Destinations?

“11217 if not those 2 then maybe you just smoke crack?”
You all out again?
I was in the 6th Avenue house. It is a lower duplex and two rentals. The top floor was renovated and had a tenant whose lease was up in December. No privacy wall between the lower duplex and the entraceway to upstairs. The lower duplex and the apartment above, need complete renovation (new kitchens, baths, layout, etc.). Nice size building and great location (Center Slope, not North), I think it was a great price considering you could easily put 200K-400K into it, price obviously depending on your taste.
“11217 what planet are you on? I think you are having an acid flashback to 2007. Floor thru in Park Slope are going for 2200 ish today”
Not what I’m seeing. This is a listing of all 2 bedrooms in PS on BHS. The one listed for $1700 is on 21st Street and the rest are are well above 2200…

11217 – you obviously did not hear that anyone that do not believe in the Mayan calendar is a either a broker or a pre 2009 buyer.
You must now sacrifice your first born to the alter of The What or your gentrifying condo will be reclaimed by the angry mob.
