11:19 & 11:32: Comparisons? Some people want to see what others are renting their units for, just like you may be checking here to see the comps on brownstones in your neighborhood, to see if you are up or down. This site is not only for owners; potential buyers need to see what they will be able to get once they spend a mint on a brownstone and are trying to offset their mortgage. Others might want to know what they can get for their garden rental since their tenant of the last 4 years just left. Who knows exactly why people are looking, but I will say, this is an interesting post to me because someday I may want to rent my condo and will hopefully see comps here.
I don’t know what you guys are bitching about – even if you’re not renting or looking to rent, if you bought a condo it’s interesting to see what it would rent for (and if you may have overpaid…)
haha bitter owners
Contrary to the above posts, I very much enjoy this feature.
I own and rentals of the week are cool. kinda gives owners like me ideas on price points and layouts. it’s all relative.
the only mistake is see is St Marks and 7th??
How are these apartments overpriced?
Overpriced for park slope? For manhattan? For kansas?
I thought this posting was a mistake too, but if you look you’ll see that “rental” is actually part of the byline. It’s hard to see how that could happen by accident. So, I think it is intentional, but why it is here or what we are supposed to do with it is anyone’s guess.
#3. wow my unit is on brownstoner :o.
/puts on flame suit.
I was wondering the same thing 11:19. Probably just an accident.
