Paralel Universe

despite the fugly reno results that for most would require the kitchen and baths be razed; they did spend heavily---someone gots to pay!!!

Well let's do some math.
Paid for both units a total of $1.269. With closing costs shall we say $1.3?(maybe some avoidance here of mansion tax)
Costs for combining the apartments and rennovation, 200K? Total $1.5

Let's assume some luck(to put it mildly) now gets 5% below current ask, $1.610. Now deduct selling expenses,flip tax, etc., 10%?

Lesson is, to quote the great Larry Sanders, "No flipping."

minimum 400k for the complete gut&combo--at 1.695 they cover cost, before re commissions etc

i say it trades 1.3--the renov cost, but at least it made for a fun project

I would put the trade at 1.3M if the reno was beautiful.
Sure don't want to be the first bidder. They have to take the heat and break the bad news.
