PARK SLOPE, BROOKLYN — If you've ever wanted to live in the old Brooklyn home of a notorious gangster, you've got a chance to do it. The Park Slope home where Al Capone used to live is up for sale, and it will only cost you a cool $2.5 million to move in. Capone grew up in a nearby building on Garfield Place, according to realtor.com, and moved into this listing in the early 1900s. "If he had lived here today, he wouldn’t have to go into the rum-running business," listing agent Bren Salamon told Patch . That's because Capone could make some serious dough from the two rental units attached to the condo, which could bring in a pretty penny in 2017 Park Slope . Anyone who moves in, though, won't be looking at any old relics of Brooklyn gone by. The home, as many are in the borough these days, was completely renovated by an investor about a year ago. The main townhouse is 2, 980 square feet spread over two levels. Along with three bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms, t...

It is one of the necessities in life, finding shelter. But who actually enjoys taking the time to search all over town for a perfect place that mandatorily fits into a budget? Anchorage isn't exactly the most expensive city around, but it's certainly not the cheapest. In a search for almost anything these days, most will likely turn to everybody's favorite modern resource , the Internet. Unfortunately, the online listing for Anchorage apartments is slim, and the information available for those apartments is even more feeble. The best and probably most accurate aid in an apartment search is an Apartment Finder catalogue , the small, detailed pamphlets found all over town in stores like the local supermarket and other retailers. The Apartment Finder names a variety of complexes citywide, lists apartments within most everyone's budget, and even provides maps for easy directions. And it can be acquired for every consumer's favorite cost: p...

DOWNSIZERS unable to relocate might be sitting on hundreds of family-sized properties across the Bayside region . Despite new government incentives that allow downsizers aged 65 or over to inject $300,000 into superannuation if they sell their home, many are refusing to do so because the right stock is not available. Namely, single-level units. Branon Real Estate sales professional Cam Saba said many prospective downsizers in Bayside were in touch with him regularly. A DEVELOPING MARKET: Homeowners turn to redevelopment to realise value “I’m currently dealing with about 100 of them, trying to find them homes,” Mr Saba said. “If you consider how many might be dealing with other agents, there could be hundreds of homes ready to be listed across Bayside. “They’re willing to sell their large houses, but the stock they want (single-level units) isn’t there, and they all want to stay in the area.” Bayside resident Valerie Maniatis said she had been looking to downsize for around four ...

Sponsored Content rise residential developments in recent years." /> Brisbane has seen a proliferation of high- rise residential developments in recent years. At one time Brisbane wore a reputation as the last, true east coast bastion of the quarter-acre block – a time, not so long ago, when many developers focused on delivering the Australian dream as a three- or four-bedroom home with a landscaped garden front and back.  How those times have changed.   Interstate migration, the need to mitigate the transport and infrastructure pressures of vast urban sprawl , and a more visionary approach to inner-city planning have all triggered the growth of Brisbane upward rather than outward. Investment in cultural precincts like South Bank have increased the appeal of inner-city living. Photo: Bradley Kanaris There is little doubt that, for most people familiar with the city, the biggest change in the past decade has been to the skyline with a proliferation of high- rise residenti...
