I don't see any red flags.  I'm also looking to buy my first house, and am wondering about anything I might not be thinking of.

Make sure that you have a really good understanding of the HOA.  I assume that you've included their fees in your calculations, but if not, do that.  Also, make sure that they don't have the power to up your fees ridiculously.

Is this a joke?  Nobody can live in NYC on less than $250k

Ah, from the title, I thought you were purchasing a coop, like a chicken coop!!! (Rather than a co-op). My mistake, and bowing out of the thread! :D

Well, joke's on the buyer then. They accepted our offer at $232,000.

Lol, aren't you the buyer?  Seriously though, congrats!

Haha that's what I thought too... At least I wasn't sure before I clicked the thread.  Mustachian people problems where it's equally likely someone is buying a co-OP or a chicken coop

 

Wow, a phone plan for fifteen bucks!
