Purchased for $449,000 in November 2001 but since remodeled, 46 Otsego Avenue is back on the market and listed for $599,000. Nothing too fancy, but what would appear to be a nicely kept little (995 square feet according to tax records) single-family home.

Not on MLS yet?
A sale at asking would be a very good result here. If you adjust for inflation, $449K in 2001 is more than $550K now, so if they spent more than $50K on the renovation, this is a real loss taking inflation into account.
It’s cute. I like it more than some of the far bigger houses featured on SS where there are remodels that are odd for various reasons. This one feels more honest, even as a simple Doelger-style house.
Cute house. Throw in a second bath and it’s pretty much what I’d look for.

let’s see the buy/rent calc on this.
perma-bears & haters, please discuss.

I don’t need any affirmations.
A Bugatti is a Bugatti whether you pay list or half-off.
PSF is only meaningful in the context of comps and prior sales, and there’s nothing magic about $500 psf. That’s about what you’d pay for a SFH row house in the Astoria section of Queens, NY.
P & I alone on a conventional uninsured mortgage, 20% down, would run about $2.4K/mo. Certainly not a income-generator but a nice starter.
The sale of 46 Otsego closed escrow on 11/19 with a reported contract price of $599,000.
