Taking It Up A Notch: Brooklyn Under $500k

Taking It Up A Notch: Brooklyn Under $500k published on

Last week’s affordable Brooklyn under $600k was so popular, we thought we would do it again. Only this time, we needed more of a challenge. We’re taking it up a notch! Brooklyn homes for under $500k. And we haven’t even touched upon East New York or Canarsie yet.

$439k: Sheepshead Bay Single Family

3 BR brick, needs updating. It’s near the Belt, which means it’s closer to the water but far from the train. Eh. What do you want for $439k?

$495k: Prospect Lefferts 2 Family

Check out the interior photos. Lemme tell you something. If I bought this place, I would just carry on with the decorating vision. I wouldn’t bother restoring it. I’m groovin’ to the red carpet and mirrors. I’d totally go bordello style. So tacky that it’s AWE-SOME.

$499k: Bed Stuy 2 Family

Bless you, agent Andre. The only one who got back to me regarding availability of these homes. Looks cool from the outside. Hancock at Malcolm X, 2100 sq ft. You’re past prime Stuy Heights and in the middle of 2 train lines here, but it’s probably still a good deal at that price.

$499k: Flatbush 2 Family

Oooh…I like this. $100k cheaper than last week’s Flatbush brick which was in better condition. This one needs TLC but the details are intact. Do I see a clawfoot tub? Original plaster and parquet floors? Suh-weet. Map shows it’s close to Newkirk and Flatbush.

$499k: Sunset Park Single Family

Ok, agent Albert got back to me last minute. This property is still available. 43rd and 4th Avenue. So it’s not the prettiest part of Sunset Park, but it’s near the train. Ad says “move in condition”. Since there aren’t any interior photos, you won’t know what that means until you see it in person.
