Built in 1913, the building calls back to the city's early development, much like the commercial clusters just a block or few long that are nestled in so many neighborhoods.

Most water claims start in the most ordinary places: under sinks and around toilets. A slow drip from a supply line or a small leak by a toilet can lead to severe water damage across several units.

Our first step was coming up with a floor plan based on our clients' lifestyle.

With lush period features and central air, the interior has room for a new owner to put their own design stamp on it. A wealth of woodwork fills the parlor level of this Bed Stuy townhouse, with built-ins, fretwork, a pier mirror, and mantels among the highlights. There have been some updates, like central air, but there is still room for a new owner to put their own design stamp on the interior while being surrounded by period features.

The single-family house has also been updated to accommodate the current concept of modern living, while still retaining much of its original charm and detail.

My best friend and I have been talking about buying a two-family house and living in it together. We're both in our late 30s and have wanted to buy for a while, but everything is out of our range as solo buyers - so going for it together seems like the ideal (and only) way to get out of the rental market in New York City.
