Property Details

Hello! I am looking for someone to take over my lease in Bed-Stuy. It's been a great space, but I am relocating to a different part of Brooklyn.

About the Unit

The unit is located on Lafayette between Nostrand and Marcy. It is about a 4-5 minute walk from the Bedford - Nostrand G and about a 2-3 minute walk from the B44. Herbert Von King park is also about a 5 minute walk away.

The unit is 2 bedrooms with one bathroom. It's on the 2nd floor, and there is no elevator in the building. The bedrooms can both accommodate queen beds.

The unit will largely come unfurnished, but I can keep the following items there if there is interest: kitchen bar cart, microwave, kitchen table and two chairs, and an IKEA armoire.

The kitchen has a dishwasher, stainless steel appliances, and plenty of cabinet space. Each room has a split A/C unit. There is a washer and dryer in the building accessible via the basement (one flight of stairs required). The building is wired for FIOS internet

The management company has an online portal for maintenance requests and are quite responsive to any issues in the unit. There are plenty of great restaurants, bars, coffee shops, and grocery stores within close walking distance (5-10 minutes)

Rental Requirements

The earliest date for the lease takeover is Feb 15 and the lease ends June 30. The landlord also said they would most likely give whoever takes over the lease the option to renew for the following year.

The current rent is $2,900 per month. No utilities are included, but the average cost for internet, gas, and electricity is usually around $200 / month.

For the lease takeover, a month security deposit is required ($2,900) as well as one month’s rent ($2,900)

The landlord requires a credit score over 700 and income greater than or equal to one month’s rent
