108 Franklin Street, #1 (Serhant LLC)
At this point in Tribeca's transformation from urban wasteland to one of Manhattan's most coveted neighborhoods, it would appear that every formerly industrial or commercial building that could possibly be converted to residential has done so, and the owners of the apartments inside are clinging to their real estate. Such scarcity cannot help but drive prices up; and yet, a four-bedroom loft with private terrace at Italianate loft building turned luxury cooperative 108 Franklin Street is available for only $3,000,000, down 53.8% from the original listing price of $6.495 million. Original features like exposed brick, high ceilings, and oversized windows remain on display, but a recent renovation yielded such perks as a chef's kitchen with state-of-the-art appliances, a dressing room with custom storage in the primary suite, a spacious laundry room with two washer/dryers, and a home gym.
However, it is important to note that this loft is being sold in a flash sale auction with the bid deadline set for Friday, January 12 at 5:00 p.m. While auctions like this can allow for access to unique properties at great prices, there are some pitfalls buyers should be aware of. The circumstances of the property and how it hit the auction market are not known, which will result in more research and thus higher attorney fees. Owing to the risks these properties can present, finding a lender may be more difficult. These may be non-issues to all-cash buyers, but even they will not be able to conduct a walk-through or inspection that could reveal any deal-breakers before buying the property.
