Default Re: On the verge of buying apartment in Brooklyn, opinions?

[ QUOTE ]
I'm not an expert, but stuff I would think about is will I be able to fix the place up (possibly increasing resale value) or is it all brand new interior? where is it in relation to public transportation (properties close to the subway in nyc are usually more in demand and tend to do better even when the market is tanking).

Yeah I think i'm doing well in these regards. It is a recently renovated place in prime location 3 blocks from teh subway in a desirable building. Because I'm worried about real estate getting beat up, I think getting a reasonably priced high-end place is probably better than trying to get a steal on a marginal place.
