Buying in Brooklyn
I just read this story via the Times last night talking about how hot Brooklyn real estate is and then got this email about buying in Brooklyn from BB this afternoon. I’m pretty sure we fell under that naive home buyer moniker before we bought and it didn’t go as smoothly as we thought so if you’re considering buying in Brooklyn, be sure to check this event out:
