Brooklyn, NY - Converting 2 Family to 3 Family
Hello,
I am considering purchasing a 2 family brownstone in Bed-Stuy. It was built on or about 1899. It does not have a Certificate of Occupancy. The owner has configured it as a 3 unit building. I would like to legalize it and was wondering if anyone would be able to give me a rough estimate of the cost to convert the property to a 3 family.
It does not have a sprinkler system. Do you know if I would have to add a sprinkler system to the whole property or just the hallways. I have been told two different things. I was told that since it is a pre-1943 property, sprinklers would just have to be added to the hallways.
Has anyone been through this process? What was the time frame for completion? Thank you for your help.
