Where the hay is Allentown?!?!? Never heard of it.
Though I agree with Anon’s basic point. I have been looking for houses in Westchester, and I just love it! The houses are amazing and I have found some wonderful areas that I feel totally comfortable in. I’m sure some of you would rather live in a cardboard box in Brooklyn, but not me.
Ej, I don’t think you get the point.
Allentown condos are much better rental investments than Brooklyn condos.
You’re a genious to point out there’s more demand to live in Brooklyn than in Allentown. Thanks for enlightening me!
There’s a reason you can get property so cheaply there.
Because there’s no demand to live there.
I wonder why that is…?
Allentown isn’t that bad.
In Allentown, you can buy a new 3br/2bth condo for 200k and rent it out for $1800.00.
In Brooklyn the smallest new condo cost about 500k and would rent for about the same. Not to mention the taxes and maintence charges are much higher in Brooklyn.
You do the math!
i’d rather live in a carboard box in nyc than live in allentown.
and i’m not kidding.
the only good thing about pa is it’s a great place to unload nyc’s garbage.
Allentown..uh you are in the wrong neighborhood.
none of these houses are as good as the houses in Allentown.
I saw the CrownHeights house. it is beautiful, if you try and picture it with white walls and none of the furnishings – every nook is filled with crazy stuff and walls are painted purple. there is a kitchen on almost every floor, one of which is terrifying in its sheer dark green-ness. the bathrooms would all need to be done over. the backyard is huge, but would need to be completely landscaped as it is currently covered in concrete and has cars parked in it. the other downer is that you would have tenants of a large apartment building looking out their windows into your yard. you could fix that by having a fairly shady backyard maybe.
all of that said, the price is waaaaay too much to pay for that house in that neighborhood. people who complain that Clinton Hill doesn’t have enough amenities would feel lucky if they ventured here.
if they dropped the price to 900k or even 1.2 mil, then it’s worth considering. and you’d have to be willing to live in the neighborhood. otherwise, forget it.
13th street, i like the street, but that place is got a big issue, non of that living space in the basement is legal, windows are too small, no legal light and air, maybe who gives a shit, but a nice negotiating point
