About West Babylon's Fisherman's Wharf Co-op Development West Babylon Ny

Direct Postcard Mailing Works!

Direct postcard mailings do work only if you are consistent. I got the following listing because of it:

The listing was a 1 bedroom coop unit in West Babylon NY. Sold it in 72 days. If I didn't send postcard mailings there every other month, this homeowner wouldn't have known I existed even though I used to live there and moved out 4 years ago. He had no idea I was in real estate until he received one of my postcard mailings. And, he also hired me to help him buy a new home.

It costs me $50.00 per mailing six times per year. That is $300.00 per year and it more than pays for itself with just one listing received and sold.

I know some say direct postcard mailings do not work. Do you do it consistently? If you answer no, then that is why it doesn't work. It didn't "kick in" for me right away but it did three months later.

Here is the postcard I used:

So, be consistent and it will work if you want it to!

Estimated Monthly Mortgage Payment

I have a new listing at 152 Millard Avenue in West Babylon.

Below is a chart to show you your estimated monthly mortgage payment for 152 Millard Avenue West Babylon NY:

If this West Babylon NY coop sold for $200,000 this is what your estimated monthly mortgage payment would be.

The coop Board at Fisherman's Wharf in West Babylon requires all buyers to put down a minimum of 15%. Your bank may want you to put 20% down given how your credit is.

So, with 15% down your estimated monthly mortgage payment would be $1,956. That is the average cost to rent a 2 bedroom apartment in Lindenhurst NY and West Babylon NY. With a coop, it is still an investment for the future.
