Truth in listings: A co-op that needs some TLC

Most often the photos that accompany sales or rental listings feature carefully staged photos to make a positive first impression on potential buyers or renters.

That's not the case with this one-bedroom co-op on 12th Street between Avenue A and Avenue B. The Streeteasy listing notes that the place "Needs TLC."

Perhaps to prove that point, the only two photos with the listing offer an unvarnished view of the place — at least of a closet and top of the refrigerator...





The residence is listed at $425,000, with a note that it is in "need of a full renovation." And HDFC income restrictions apply here — one person $120,000; two people $137,000, per the listing.

    What happened to the wall and floor ?
    The place needs to be disinfected.

    That large can of RAID on the sink makes me think the place definitely has at least one insect infestation...I may actually have to go look at this to get the full glory of the space...

    that pathetic listing gives a foreboding that the real estate bubble is going to pop pretty soon.
