Dave, we sold our 2 bedroom in Manhattan for 1.5 million (bought it for 300k) 13 years ago, so for some of us it just makes sense to move to Brooklyn and get a bigger space. Turns out we love Park Slope even more than Chelsea…
Condo owners in Brooklyn are doing the same thing, making sizeable downpayments, getting low mortages.
All these houses are awesome. Crown Heights is really showing the beautiful it has. These houses are going to be very hard to get into soon… If this was 3 years ago these houses would have been off the market by now
2:50 is correct…i’ve harped on this to no end and I’m sure many of you are sick and tired of hearing it from me (many are just generally sick and tired of hearing from me but that won’t stop?
There are thousands upon thousands of one-bedroom and two-bedroom condo owners in Manhattan with serious gains that only need $300-500,000 mortgages to buy $1.0-2.0 MM brownstones.
And their taxes get cut and they pay no more condo fees which probably averaged $1,000 -$2,000 per month combined. And they can rent out a floor for $1,300 – $2,500 or more.
The only disadvantage…no doorman.
Lots of us are selling in Manhattan and paying cash for a house in Brooklyn, 2:47. That’s what we did and at least 2 of our neighbors.
Seriously – how can people get financing on these properties. I am in contract on a 2 family house and I am having problems locking in a mortgage. I am financing under 530k and have documented income for over 250k and I am putting down over 20% ….
Are they giving out mortgages of 1 mill anymore?
Plus my house was appraised twice (due to a change in mortgage brokers): first in april and came it about 850k… now last week 775k.
I’m just back from a meeting in Park Slope and on my way home saw Meryl Streep on 7th Avenue. Does she live over there?
Last I checked, you can’t live inside a slot machine, 2:42. Although from the looks of most of the people there, it wasn’t for lack of trying…
