395 6th St Unit 207A
This is an income-restricted (BMR) resale. Its price is set by an income formula, not by the market, so the gap against normal comps is not equity you own — it is a restriction you inherit, with income limits to qualify and a formula price when you sell. Scoring it against market comps would flatter it enormously, so we don't score it at all.
💵What this unit actually costs per month
30% of that payment is not the mortgage. The HOA fee alone is $35,340 over five years — money that buys you no equity. A calculator that defaulted the fee to zero would have quoted you $3,355.
Not FHA-approved. No 3.5%-down FHA financing on this unit, so the realistic floor is a 5%-down conventional loan ($24,950). Common for small associations and not a defect on its own, but it does remove FHA buyers from your resale pool.
