2:01pm: Not everyone who buys has kids so schools don’t matter. Also, if one can afford 2.5mm then they’re not sending their kids to PS321 or whatever it be called. Private skool, my man.
I happen to think the Boerum Hill bstone is horribly overpriced. 2.4 million and the schools suck! I mean, really suck.
1:26pm keep renting your studio apartment in Red Hook…Great job…
You cant time a market whether it be housing or stocks. When things are on dips you buy when things look awful you buy more. ANd thats whats happening right now with real estate. Homes are not appreciating and are declining a bit but I feel is a great time to buy because prices are negotiable. You cant exactly time the bottom but have the balls to buy when things are down. Things may go a bit lower but who knows but anytime you can negotiate a home its time to buy especially in prime NYC realestate. So keep renting and saving your little pennies and in 5 years you will be still waiting and paying someone else’s mortgage…
Everything in boerum hill will be worth 50% than today withing the next 2 years. Great area to live in & a beautiful one at that.
Interesting — is the Fort Greene house in a great location? It seems about the same price per square foot as the Carroll Gardens HOTD yesterday, which was slightly more expensive, but bigger. Is Fort Greene more expensive than Carroll Gardens now? I’m not trying to start a debate as to which neighborhood is better, because I already know their strengths and weaknesses. I was just curious as to whether the market prices are higher in one neighborhood over another.
The Boerum Hill house seems reasonably priced, or at least priced right, without much wiggle room. I remember (back when we were looking), a house on that block sold for $2.2 or $2.3, so there hasn’t been much of an increase in two years.
They ALL actually “look” nice 1:33. Thanks for your in-depth analysis and useful comment.
Biff and Dave add nothing, as usual.
The Ditmas house looks nice.
Bushwick avenue is so sad. There are some great houses down there, an amazing very old dutch church, but the whole place is dirty and decrepit.
