## Caption

Before and after from a recent Fort Greene Brownstone project. And it’s got me thinking about 428 Vanderbilt — my next one, about to hit the market.

Another Fort Greene record breaking sale? Maybe. There’s nothing comparable out there right now.

Here’s why: a project like this takes longer than you think and costs more than you budget for. Buyers have caught on. Most have stopped buying projects — too many have turned into a recipe for divorce. They want turnkey. Move in day one, add your own furniture, maybe a yoga studio or outdoor space, and call it done.

That’s exactly what 428 Vanderbilt is built for. A cigar bar on the roof for Dad. A yoga retreat in the primary bedroom for Mom. And with rooms this grand, it’s time to teach Suzie piano in the living room.

Stand by. 428 Vanderbilt Ave, Fort Greene, Brooklyn.
