Own in DUMBO? What it would sell for today

DUMBO housing is loft residences in converted industrial warehouses within a historic district, plus newer condominiums along the East River. Buyers weigh them against the F at York Street, the A/C at High Street and Brooklyn Bridge Park. Condo and loft sellers should have the offering plan amendments and common-charge history ready; co-op loft sellers, the board package and building financials.

Milton helped me purchase my first Manhattan condo, and I can't recommend him highly enough. What could have been a stressful process ended up feeling remarkably smooth. From the initial offer through closing, Milton was responsive, knowledgeable, and always willing to take the time to answer questions and explain the details. I always felt informed and supported, but never pressured. If you're looking for a broker who is knowledgeable, trustworthy, responsive, and genuinely invested in helping his clients succeed, I would absolutely recommend Milton.
