I actually prefer partial to no equity as I've become proficient in the workouts so I like a reduce price tag. 

Used to be (and in some blocks still is) a run-down, drug infested mess.But there are signs of life, too--REAL art wall murals have replaced the typical gang graffiti; specialty coffee shops open next to bodegas, art galleries opening, and blocks and blocks of beautiful brownstone buildings.
