[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know this thread mostly focuses on row homes, but this condo conversion has me very interested in other opinions:

https://www.redfin.com/DC/Washington/1000-I-St-NE-20002/unit-1/home/171993771?utm_medium=share&utm_source=web_share&utm_campaign=copy

Looks a bit unusual, as I think the building is divided into a front and back unit (both four stories), instead of upper and lower. Based on the property details, it looks like the layout is:

- Terrace level: MIL suite (1 bed, 1 full bath, plus sitting room, separate entry)
- Main floor: living room, kitchen, 1/2 bath
- Second floor: 2 bedrooms, 1 full bath, laundry
- Third floor: Master suite with full bath, roof deck

So 4 bed, 3.5 bath, with roof deck, two entrances, and parking. That is a lot of stuff for 900k in that neighborhood! But the square footage is only 1800 and the photos don't appear to show the master suite? The description is for the entire building, which I think was on the market until the other unit sold separately, so it doesn't really help explain.

Has anyone been in this one who can clarify? I can't figure out if this is a deal or overpriced or just a weird anomaly.[/quote]

I have so many issues with people that turn rowhouses into condos.

1. Why?
2. They want $899k which is comparable with what you can get for a SFH. It is not like it is much cheaper than a house you can own free and clear. 
3. Looks like they added an ugly pop up on the back of the original home. 
4. Since it is a condo you have to pay $248 in HOA fees. Also because it appears to be only 2 units I guarantee you will get f****d on an HOA board or whatever they do.

The entire point of buying a condo is because you can own something in a high-rise downtown with some decent community amenities. This completely defeats the purpose of a condo. [/quote]
