11217 – we may not disagree about the market placing a premium on north slope over center/south slope, but *I personally* don’t – that’s what I meant. I know some people hate the F, but it’s never bugged me, and if I can save a few grand living further from the express trains, that’s totally worth it to me.
“I don’t place a premium on north slope blocks, though I suppose it’s true that some others do. I’d rather save some money and buy a bit further south”
I don’t understand this statement. If you’d rather “save some money and buy a bit further south” doesn’t that then mean that homes further south are less expensive?
6th Street house has a very specific interior that some may like but others may be put off by (like me) – too fussy and kitchen is cave like. And why on earth did they paint part of staircase white? Ugh! Plus its 17′ wide. I think at least a 10% price drop brings it in more reasonable territory but again, has to find a buyer that likes the current look or else is willing to spend the money to redo (kitchen, baths, etc.). Too pricey for me without rental income, and contrary to 11217’s outlook, I don’t place a premium on north slope blocks, though I suppose it’s true that some others do. I’d rather save some money and buy a bit further south (i.e. center or south slope), and stick to a 3 story or else 4 story with a rental…
“Does North Slope generally fetch higher prices than Center Slope?”
Thanks for the clarification, y’all.
One more question:
My impression is there tends to be more car traffic in the North Slope than in the Center Slope.
Is this true?
The Bed-Stuy (Clinton Hill) house is on a very nice block. But the price does look kind of steep. It’s pretty close to Fulton St. which is finally moving toward gentrification.
Union St. is the dividing line between District 13/PS282 and District 15/PS321).
Ditto what 11217 said on the Slope zones.
The CH house is lovely but not at that price. Might pop into the open house anyway. It’s exactly the size I’m looking for.
I’d say North Slope is named streets, Center Slope is 1st to 9th and South Slope is below 9th.
But that’s just me.
“Does North Slope generally fetch higher prices than Center Slope?”
Where would you place the dividing line between North Slope and South Slope?
Perhaps 1st Street?
What about the dividing line between Center Slope and South Slope?
9th Street?
