It all depends upon your financial situation as well as factors such as your employment, convenience, and logistics. In terms of whether you should sell your apartment, when I was looking for which law school to go to, I consider about Brooklyn Law, but for me personally the prices of rentals and Apartments for sale were out of my budget. The point I am trying to get is that APARTMENTS ARE SELLING AND RENTING THERE, that area is in high demand. I have not seen how your apartment is or whether is a studio, 1 or 2 bd, but whatever your choose, i think the market is on your side.

If you have any questions dont hesitate to email me at Cgalindo@prosperityREG.com - Thu May 8 2008, 09:53

Hey Fred,

Hard to imagine, but as a law student and real estate professional, I am also an Artist. So I will speak to you as an artist not as a real estate professional. Is not only an "art revolution" in that specific area, but throughout Staten Island, Brooklyn, and Queens. Thats happening in neighborhoods that people would consider remote and distant. I live on Staten Island, and many artist are moving into St. George, an area people will think of it as a last place for art to flourish. I go there often, they also have a nice cafe where fellow artist gather and speak about art, and their perspectives.
In terms of Brooklyn, many artist that come to visit Staten Island, are from East New York, Bedford Styveson, Bushwick, Crown Heights. Shockingly, I have started to meet many more artist coming from those areas, although you may not see art galleries, and studios so visibly as you would find in Manhattan, I have visited an abound number of studios, galleries in homes of these artist, and they are beautiful and refreshing. Many people would have negative assumptions about these places, but I will tell people that it is a place where human beings are expressing themselves with diligent commitment to the arts, and freedom. I am glad that that article gave a small idea of what is happening in Bushwick, but it is more illustrious and gratifying to see it from yourself.

Hey Cesar.

With this question, it really is a question subjective preference. The difference of cost or expenses is really not much, due to Brooklyn's rapid rise to almost Manhattan status. I do not need say, that you can see that the PRICES of Brooklyn properties are steadily rising.

In terms of savings, there is really not much, even if the taxes are lower on condos, dont forget that common charges of the condo is another permanent cost on the property that must be added on in your monthly cost. The only place where you could see a major difference and a big savings on a condo is on Staten Island, where the prices are relatively lower than 1 family houses.

Again as I stated before, Brooklyn is a unique place and heading to MANHATTAN STATUS. So is your preference whether you want a private 1-family home in its own property, where you can enjoy your own backyard or front yard(even if is a small one). However, you will have to maintain not only the interior, but also the exterior. On the other hand, you are a busy person and have no time to maintain the outside or shovel snow, then a condo is good for you. For me, personally, is like living in an apartment building.

In short, in terms of prices, cost, savings, they are about the same. But if you want a clearer picture dont hesitate to contact me personally.
