Brooklyn, NY: moving advice/realtors

ian I'll probably still be in NY so hit me up if you need an artisanal goat cheese wholesaler

blue apron are helping with startup cash for cheese cave construction.

- healthy, friendly goats, non-smokers, no drugs or growth hormones
- offering 300 goats per month
- goats are conveniently located in East Africa, just steps from Suez Canal
- MUST PROVIDE OWN GOAT TRANSPORTATION
- no overnight visits with goats

- MUST PROVIDE OWN GOAT TRANSPORTATION

dealbreaker.

i mean seriously dude, you can't even go halfway with me on this goat transport issue?

* it's NOT ok to contact this poster with other commercial goat interests

300 goats per month is a lot of fucking goats!

I am rushing to Midwood to look at studio, will probly have to get dinner at this Difara b4 getting back on Q to go to movie screening.

300 goats per month is a lot of fucking goats!

gross, dude, nobody said anything about fucking them. u got problems

can you tell I'm having a slow work day

i heard you don't get buybacks at daddy's if you smell like goats.

lol let's keep the daddy's beef confined to just 6 or 7 threads ok

difara dinnertime can be a long wait.

goat beef?

yeah, I figured... can I get to-go then? I can't sit thru a Dalton Trumbo documentary w/ no dinner.

Ha, as of the last time I bought an east-African goat, they were going for less than US$1 each, so 300 is not a bold offer

morbs, the set-up is one elderly man making pizzas for a devoted mob of customers. there's no waiter service - you order at the counter, once you've made your way to it. we go during off-off hours because otherwise it's too much hassle. call me a sad example of our convenience-obsessed society, but waiting an hour and a half for a pizza (even if it's the best pizza in the city) is beyond me.

gahhhh, that won't work, then

the area's not a dead zone, though - there are quite a few middle eastern places scattered around cia/aves j and k, iirc. plus some glatt kosher places but i wouldn't recommend eating at one of those unless you're keeping the dietary laws.

I think if you just get slices, and stand your ground at the counter, you have a chance of getting food at a reasonable rate.

Yeah, going into a glatt kosher place and asking for a ham and cheese sandwhich is NOT COOL.

An acquaintance of mine has a lovely 4-room floor through in G'point for under a $1,000. She got it through a broker a few years ago. *sob*

I had time to eat in Manhattan... Place is similar size to my Kensington place AND $75 less a month. :o I could take taxis again.

and also be near me! except i will only be there for another week and a half and then just 1 day a week next fall.

I like Sunset Park a lot. Nonetheless, probably gonna move to Lefferts for the Q train convenience and proximity to Prospect Park. Also, apartments are very large there. I will miss Clinton Hill but I can't afford a bigger apartment here.

what's bed-stuy like?

tbh i think crown heights is a much better neighborhood in the same price range.

it also depends on where in bedstuy, what train you are close to, and where you're commuting to.

putnam, near kingston-throop, commuting to soho

i live in bed-stuy, step off

this is not for me btw

what kind of 'price range' is appropriate for bed-stuy (or crown heights)

1BR or 2BR? look on craigs list!

cutty i wasn't saying anything bad about bed-stuy, i just think crown heights is underrated

ha i was telling max to step off ;)

i wd prefer it if u guys did the work for me

it's not even for you, though

frankly cutty if u live in bed stuy thats all i need to know <3 <3 <3

Those neighborhoods, at those prices.. why not live in Bridgeport and make origami out of all the leftover money each month?

bridgeport, CT?

Yes.

gtfo with this bridgeport

tracer this is like the time you were all "why are you guys spending $100 on jeans? why not just buy them at the thrift store?"

Depart: 8:14AM
Arrive: 9:26AM
Travel Time: 72 min.
Through train: Y

Ha Max it kind of is. I would never live in Bridgeport though I don't think.

i live in princeton and commute like 2 hrs each way so im not unsympathetic

to the idea that it makes more sense to live outside of the city, i mean--the commute kind of sucks tho

i just don't understand the "those neighborhoods at those prices!" when the money i would probably be paying slightly less rent but $200/month more and an extra hour each way on the metro north and living in fucking fairfield county, instead of in walking distance of great restaurants, parks and museums.

well, i am commuting w/in the 5 boroughs for at least an hour each way anyway, so it can't be that much worse and i'm sure you have lots more space!

xpost to max

i commute an hour each way as well, but commuting from CT would be 2 hours each way.

i cant complain about my living situation esp. since my job pays for my transpo but this is one of those things where everyone has a difft set of needs for where they live--my girlfriend for example does not want to live in new jersey with my parents or in bridgeport, ct by herself

also i have a somewhat irrational hatred of connecticut :)
