For anyone that has worked with a realtor previously, it will come as no surprise that we were completely overwhelmed by our whirlwind day-tour of the Rockaways. This was the first time we had looked at any properties outside of the casual, open-house atmosphere. Nia, our agent from Rockaway Properties, did an amazing job of showing us six very different homes, all within our price range. We had a blast, but by the end of the day we were exhausted.
We began in Rockaway Park.
181 Beach 117th St.; $399,000 with $309/month maintenance (Top floor 2-bedroom, 2-bath)
Ocean Grande, 136 Beach 117th St.; $389,000 with $639/month maintenance (2-bedroom, 2-bath)
The Seavon, 118-20 Ocean Promenade; $439,000 with $605 month/maintenance (2-bedroom, 2-bath)
And then headed to Arverne.
The Reef, 221 Beach 80th St.; $325,000 with $798/month maintenance (3-bedroom, 2-bath)
467 Beach 68th St.; $399,000 (5-bedroom, 3-bath)
Seascape Condominiums, 229-231 Beach 99th St.; New units ranging from $329,000 - $445,990
At the end of the day we realized that we are still swooning over 12411 Rockaway Beach Blvd. The clarity prompted us to make an offer! Let the games begin.
