put ’em up here Anon 3.04. You’re not going to be finding any “deals” on rowhouses until you start looking in far flung, underserved locations.
Ability to buy a brownstone in brownstone brooklyn is not exactly in the Bill of Rights. Nor is “affordable housing”> This is why most people feel very lucky indeed when they buy at all in NYC and almost always a co-op or condo.
You need to either make more money, buy an apartment, or extend your brownstone search to the more “fringe” areas.
there isn’t much stock AND decent stuff over a million is going very quickly and for way over ask. My theory is that there are about 8 bidders or more for every decent place, and one of them has a suitcase full of dirty unmarked bills from europe, or an investment bank (same difference).
But thats just my theory..
I’m sure people reading this who have bid and lost in the last few months can concur, but don’t want to identify themselves in case their broker is reading.
Wade:
I’m with you bro;
Come on Mr Stoner, i’ve seen many good deals out there that aren’t listed.
Wade, hang in there. You can find a home. You just have to be willing to make some sacrifices. Unfortunately, you are correct that this is not the right forum to discuss affordable housing.
I like the carroll gardens house it is cute and worth the price i believe.
Continued from 2:27, I was on the house hunt two years ago and found a fantastically priced house listed in the NY Times and couldn’t believe it was true. On second look it was in Brooklyn, Ohio. d’oh.
gowanus isn’t used by “only newbies”. it’s the neighborhood name, has been forever. also the name given by trulia.com, other real estate sites, etc.
only brokers and people trying to sell overpriced homes in the area call it the south slope. below 4th ave is gowanus till around union, then becomes boerum hill.
Wade, Like it or not these are the prices in brownstone neighborhoods that Mr. Brownstoner covers.
