This post is for you, buyers or potential buyers who have become jaded because every listing in DC seems to get bid up over list price. Note that it did go fast…under contract in about a week, but the buyer was able to negotiate.

For those who poo poo’ed the location in the original Good Deal or Not (GDoN) post comments, this is located at the far west end of Brookland (also referred to as Edgewood), which is within a few blocks of Bloomingdale’s emerging restaurant district. I have long said that when one area starts getting pricey, it’s time to look at the edges of that neighborhood.

Currently there are four active listings for houses in Edgewood, including two on this block priced at $365,000. and $449,000. respectively. Six houses are currently under contract, and since the beginning of the year there have been fourteen houses sold ranging from $260,000. to $599,900.

The listing agent was Jon Ferris of DCRE. Robert Alexander of Stages Premier represented the buyer.

This transaction represents the sale of a unit in a cooperatively owned building which has affordable housing restrictions. For those who are not versed in co-ops, basically it feels a lot like owning a condo unit, except that the entire building is owned collectively by all of the owners (often with one big underlying mortgage on the whole building) and allows the co-op member proprietary use of a residential unit, whereas a condo unit owner owns and finances just the unit he/she occupies.

Cooperatives are actually quite common in DC. One of DC’s landmarks, The Watergate, includes residential buildings that are cooperatively owned. Since the beginning of 2013, there have been 243 co-op transfers. These sales ranged from a $48,000. transaction to the $2,330,000. transfer of a 4000 square foot 4 bedroom, 3.5 bath unit at 2339 Massachusetts Avenue NW.
