$375k: St Albans, Queens

3BR, 2Bath single family. I’m not sure how I feel about Tudors. I do love the look of them from the outside, but they tend to be dark and cramped on the inside. Still, this house is adorable for under $400k in one of the boros. Have no idea about St. Albans. What’s the story with that neighborhood?

$420k: E Harlem, NYC

3BR, 2Bath condo. This new “luxury” apartment isn’t my taste, but it’s something you can move right into without doing any work. It’s a bright 1200 sq ft duplex in an older building.

But the real reason I chose this was because of the realtor….

What do you think? Nerdy cool or just nerdy? Sometimes it’s hard to figure out.

$449k: South Beach, Staten Island

4BR semi detached. Ok, so the house is fugly. It offers up a WT deck and pool. But I’m a sucker for staging. Check out the plastic slip cover couch below. They just sold me on this house. What? They didn’t stage it? Wow, impeccable taste! I’m impressed.

 $479k: Williamsbridge, Bronx

5BR, 2 Family brick. Open House this weekend. Looks like a nice house. Wood floors, original molding and doors. The kitchen can use an upgrade and maybe that nasty basement rug needs to go, but it seems like a swell house to me. Williamsbridge? Dunno nuthin about it.

$575k: Bed Stuy, Brooklyn

2 Family, 2312 sq ft brownstone. Bed Stuy is huge and there are less expensive places. This was my pick because it looks like it’s near the A train, although I don’t see an actual address listed. It’s not lacking in the detail department, but the garden and basement could use a good sprucing up.

I’ve seen this brownstone while attending an open house back in April. The address was 561a Halsey Street. It’s near the Utica Avenue A/C train station. It looks like the previous owner ran out of money, as there floors are new. Lots of the original details remain but there are some projects waiting for the new owner. Was told the property was a short sale.
