this building has some awful and loud people living in it. They party in the streets and hallways sometimes till 6am and are not kept in check by the people running the building. If you want to invest in this building--make sure that the board knows that you are aware of this and want it stopped.
How is the building doing in general? Do you have any information on major improvements that will be needed after the available units are sold? Any other complaints or positives? How is the Super?
I am a broker and have lived on this block for 18 years. While the noise and partying used to be a disturbance in the neighborhood, the situation has improved greatly. I'd be happy to show buyers some other great listings in the neighborhood.
Yeah. Two people can't make more then 101K. The wife and I threw around the idea of buying in this building since we make just south of the income restriction and have the down payment to make the mortgage payments manageable.
Does anyone know if the noise/partying situation has gotten better in this CoOp? I would really like to buy here but not if it isn't quiet. I don't care how cheap it is, if you can't sleep a night, it isn't worth it.
I went to an OH here this afternoon and I must say that if you are in the market for a "fixer upper", THIS is the building for you. As for me, I'll pass.
the parting has gotten "better" but there is still hanging out -- and disrespect for the neighborhood--I a a neighbor and I have been sworn at and give the fingure and worse when I look out the window at the front of the building--seems to be a place to hang out till even 5 in the morning--
If you are thinking of moving in--please presure the building managers--I think it is inproving and might be a good place to live...if some of the residents could quiet or move on (weekends and late at night are the worst)
great location, but that may be it. We looked at the otuside of the building and it did not appear to be in great condition. Also the street reeked of something, although the building can hardly be blamed for that. I contacted a broker for an hdfc listing in the building that was 350k. She said that I would need to bring a certified architect to renovate. If I qualify for hdfc and am buying a place for 350K, am I going to have any money leftover for an architect?
i contacted a broker about one of the apts. She said $88,770 for single person, $101,310 for two
persons, $114,015 for three persons, and $126,720 for four persons. Also, there is a 25% flip tax. this was in regards to this apt:
The woman who has all of these listings - Amy - is nuts and a total flake. I would stay stay away... there is a reason all of these places have been on the market for over a year. Also, look up this building in the city's data bases. It is riddled with violations for no heat, rats, and so on.

Thank you for the "heads up" about the noise levels!

Isn't this building income restricted HDFC or whatever?

Anyone have a link to the HDFC income limits?

I'm not sure if each unit in the building has the same income restrictions.
