the article is old, from 2007. The apartments that the young man lived in were totally rebuilt they are beautiful and people are pround to live there. the private homes are lovely, well kept, and its a beautiful area. It straddles two school districts, I am not sure where the line is but I believe most of the private homes go to Great Neck and the apartments attend Manhasset. Take a drive and check out Spinney Hill I think you will be pleasantly surprised. I live very close, never even gave it thought, I was shocked to see your questions, and I never saw that article before. continue looking in great neck, its a wonderful place to live.... more
Since short sales and bank owned properties end up being listed by a broker, consider working with an agent of your own. Keep in mind that not all foreclosures are such great bargains, therefore during your search don't overlook some traditional sales, as some may be better buys. If you are interested in the Great Neck area, MLS is currently showing two short sales as available, one listed at $399,000, the other at $499,000. Also check out www.mlsli.com and if you need additional assistance feel free to contact me directly.... more
There aren't any bad sections of Great Neck. The real question is how far do you want to be from the train station? What do you want to be walkable to, stores? temples? Which High School district do you want to live in? This will determine which area of Great Neck is best for you.... more
Hi Nellie,
The answers below are correct. Though we don't accept FSBO listings, if you choose to work with either a flat fee or full service broker or agent in the future, he/she can submit your listing to us via the link below.

The bank would prefer a short sale. This is an agreed upon price between the home owner and the bank on a sales price of the home that is usually less than the mortgage. The owner is still responsible for the difference.
As a foreclosure the bank has moved past a short sale and has taken ownership. The house is usually presented with no utilities and the bank is responsible for maintaining the property. The bank has a higher loss in this transaction... more
A Short Sale is an alternative to foreclosure proceedings and undoubtedly the lesser of two evils. You are basically selling the property at a loss under an agreement with the lender. Typically there is some debt forgiveness involved and at the end of the sale you get to move on with your life without the impending doom of foreclosure or a bankruptcy blight on your credit that could follow you around for 7-10 years.... more
You don't, the house would not close if the bank is calling in on the equity to cover some of the debt. Foreclosure of this home means walk away and if you really want this home wait until it is either auctioned or put back on the market by the bank! The "Ahem" Seller right now no longer has primary interest or control of this property, request any earnest monies returned since this home is not able to be sold and to not feel they can keep the money because that would then constitute a fraud... more

Now is an especially good time to buy because prices are down, inventory is up and interest rates are a 40 year lows but starting to climb. If you wait to purchase, prices could come down but when interest rates rise, you will end up paying more in the long run. My area of expertise is in and around the Great Neck area, which is a wonderful place to live. Conveniently located 25 mins r/r to NYC, charming town with beautiful parks, excellent schools. Simply something for everyone. If you have anymore questions, feel free to give me a call or email me at: 516-330-8647 or stacey.rothstein@elliman.com.... more

Very few co-ops allow dogs in Great Neck, and if they do there is a weight and size restriction. There is a co-op that allows dogs on Maple Drive, on Schenck, South Middle Neck road, and Middle Neck Road. The Condo's allow dogs.
