Rental of the Day: 425 Keap Street
Sotheby’s has a rental on the market, 425 Keap Street, which is called “one of the original residential buildings in Williamsburg.” The 1,500-square-foot apartment’s undergone a pretty complete reno but there’s still original tile and exposed brick for those needing a taste of the old world. The $4,200-a-month price tag, however, seems better suited for…

The $4,200-a-month price tag, however, seems better suited for the other side of the BQE, don’t you think?

But wine lover… 3 or 4 roommates can easily find a BETTER place *with* prebuilt walls (i.e., bedrooms) for this price.
guess is that they assume that walls will go up for more bedrooms. it’s big, so will go way higher than $2700. this will see 3 to 4 roommates.
“Steps from the BQE and its bustling dating scene!”
surely the four and the two are transposed, no?
It’s not really on the “wrong side” of the BQE – it’s practically on top of the BQE! (Or, in broker-speak, easy access to the BQE.)
That’s just insane even to somebody that knows the Northside market quite well. I’d be very surprised if they find a taker at that rate. Somebody will bite around $2750 but no shot at 4k+, ha!
I’m hesitating between blah and what!? This listing is really pure invention: it’s not 1,500 sf but about 1,000-1,100sf, it’s a 1 bedroom with a nice big lofty living room, on the “wrong” side of the BQE. They must be hoping for a newcomer to con.
GTFOH , you can find the exact same apartment in soho for less. yeah i know who wants to live in soho, but still. this is absurd. nice apt tho. wack price. but some creative professional phoney will rent it im sure.
*rob*
Original to what? Gentrification?
(This building was abandoned for ages, and then underwent a VERY slow rehab beginning in the late 90s. I think it was completed in the early 00’s.)
I hate broker babble.
