Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

This two-family duplex offers a 3-bedroom over 2-bedroom layout plus a finished basement. The building includes an interior vestibule/common hallway and separate interior access points to the first-floor unit, second-floor unit, and basement, with basement access extending to the rear yard. Oil heat serves the property. The second-floor owner’s bedroom is currently intended to be delivered vacant, while other second-floor bedrooms and portions of the first-floor unit are described as inaccessible due to non-cooperative occupants. The property is being sold strictly as-is, and buyers should expect limited access for showings, inspections, and appraisal purposes.

The asset is located in Flatlands, Brooklyn. The remarks note proximity to Flatbush Avenue, Avenue K, Kings Highway, and several local destinations including Brooklyn College, Kings Plaza, and Marine Park. Public transportation options referenced include nearby B41, B9, and B82/B82-SBS bus service, as well as access to the 2/5 trains at Flatbush Avenue–Brooklyn College and the B/Q trains at Kings Highway.

For end users and investors, the internal separation between units and basement access may support a variety of live-in-and-rent scenarios, depending on tenancy status and buyer due diligence. Buyers should factor in the explicitly limited access conditions and the as-is sales terms when planning inspections and valuation.

Key Highlights

  • 2‑family property with 3‑bedroom over 2‑bedroom layout plus finished basement
  • Separate interior access points for the first‑floor unit, second‑floor unit, and basement
