To: 'eff e stein 'eevacation@grnail.corn] From: Sent Sat 5/16/2009 12:25:18 AM Please tell me what makes sense for me—buying a 1 BR in Clinton Hill, Brooklyn for $389,000 with maintenance of $755 (Corcoran web id: 1456358) or a 1 BR at 333 East 53rd, (corcoran web id 1394259) $429,000 Maint. $862. I have $460, from sale of last apt. and about $100,000 saved for retirement. If you can check out these properties online, I would appreciate it. I've never done something like this on my own, and it's all a bit scary. My current rent is too high—$2500 and the lease expires end of June, so I have to make a move soon. My salary is $65,000. Thanks so much, it brings me hope to know that you're always on m side. Love, EFTA_R1_01517518 EFTA02442498
