“When i see all these negative comments it makes me want to buy buy buy. why? beacuse those on this board have no clue.”
Ass ass ass…hat
I think prices have about 20% more to fall in Park Slope
Hi 11.24. My wife and I are thinking of renting out our owners apt. These don’t come on the market very often and I wondered how you got on? Do you give the renter of the main appartment full access to the basement and have the other tenants come to him if they need to get in (blown fuse or something)? Was it easy to rent, I guess a lot of would be buyers are now looking to rent.
Question to anyone: What is the market price for these. The 2 floor throughs rent for $2000. Should the owners apt which is higher spec and has a back yard and a deck rent for more than twice the floor-throughs?
Someone always comments on the cost of heating the houses in Victorian Flatbush every single time that one is featured on this blog.
I will disclose that I am partial to the area being a home owner here but I will also say that although the cost of heating my home is about 15-20% more than heating my brownstone which I now rent out in its entirety, it is well worth it. The Brownstone is a three-family in which I occupied the largest unit. My soon to be teenagers had to share a bedroom and I was growing tired of their constant bickering over their shared space. They each now have their own bedrooms and we all have four times the space including an extra long driveway, front porch and nice backyard. I no longer get parking tickets, rent places for birthday parties or rent storage space. We are all home alot more because we enjoy both our outdoor and indoor space more. My AC bills are not as high because my street is heavily covered with trees which protect the house from the sun and I get wonderful cross-breezes by opening windows on all four sides of the house. When my parents and in-laws come to visit they no longer have to stay in a hotel (which I usually paid for) – That may not be a plus but it is an expense saved.
These houses are work. But so is maintaining any house, especially an old one. The house for sale here seems to be a good value. That kitchen is fantastic.
Granted, there has been some softening in the Victorian Flatbush market, but the Stratford house is still an excellent deal at , which is a shame because clearly they planned to live there for a very long time, judging from the kitchen reno. I hope things work out for them.
There are a lot of houses on the market around here now, most in deplorable shape, asking the same as this if not more. The owners of most of these homes, however, are generally old timers or those who can afford to wait it out. Clearly not the case with this house.
The house is not huge or distinguished for PPS. A plus or minus these days, depending on how you feel about heating costs. It is also a pretty standard design, architecurally, and the interior detail is pretty, if not remarkable. It is in fact more similar to its less glam DPW and BSW, where you can get a similar house for $100K less with better views. Yes, the views – the major downside to this house Buyers in PPW are looking for a bucolic oasis – not views of CIA. You can’t change the location of this house (although you can fix/replace the 2nd and 3rd floor floors which are in questionable shape, and reno the bathrooms, all of which are dated and look even more so compared with the kitchen).
Still for those interested in a lovely house in move in condition (and this is certainly move in) with a fab kitchen and deck in a great neighborhood (two new restaurants to open on Cortelyou this summer, as well as the newly reno’d San Remo), this house is a fantastic deal for the right buyer.
But that’s the whole issue with today’s market in DP, PPS, and the environs –
you people amaze me!! what do you do just sit at this website for hours waiting for someone to post a comment?? Will it make your dick hard to see that I’ve replied to you???? lol!! Sick bastards!!
