tybur, i don’t see how it’s possible that 1 bedrooms in Bed Stuy AVERAGE over $1,400.
section 8 is also partially to blame for ridiculously high prices in the hood. if a landlord accepts section 8 they can charge the top end of the spectrum for rent with a guaranteed payment every month. tho these are one bedrooms so most likely it wont be for section 8. but section 8 sets the bar for landlords who arent section 8 to keep rents high.
as *f*d up as it is to say, if i was a female id so get knocked up and qualify for section 8. hells it’s WHY 3/4 of young women in this city DO get pregnant. just ask around. ask THEM in fact they will freely admit it. and good for them maybe, take all you can, but it still sucks and hurts the rest of us
*rob*
They pay their own gas & electric but it includes heat and hot water of course.
No Dutch left on Throop!?! Next thing you’re gonna tell me is that there’s no forest left in Flatbush!! AAACK!
Seriously, if these were cheaper and I worked in Manhattan or downtown Bklyn, I’d definitely consider these places… though, not at these prices. The duplex with the garden seems to be the only one that makes sense to me. Though, I’d still need a second income (aka sugar mama) to help pay the rent.
And it’s shocking that Streeteasy has the Bed-Stuy rentals averaging over $1400 for 1-beds. Very shocking.
Also, don’t forget DeKalb is pronounced DEEEEkalb
DIBS does your rental price include utilities or do the tenants handle their own?
I think the prices on these four are a little high but all the properties look like the owner cared about creating a nice functional living space. There is a premium for “pretty” that a lot of people will pay and if the landlord covers the utilities the tenants can make this work, especially the shares.
tybur, not sure that there are any Dutch left around that neck of the woods. Of course Stuyvesant is VERY Dutch as well.
When i moved to Stuyvesant Ave I knew how to spell it without a problem because there was a “Stuyvesant Plaza” near where I grew up in Albany.
No one i ever speak to on the phone would know how to spell it or even say it correctly once they’ve written it down.
AJ…and what hood would that be?
