Selling a House in Flatbush

Much of Flatbush south of Prospect Park was built around 1900 as an early suburb of freestanding frame houses on large lots, with front lawns and tree-lined streets. The Landmarks Preservation Commission has protected large parts of it: Prospect Park South in 1979, Ditmas Park in 1981, Fiske Terrace-Midwood Park in 2008, and Ditmas Park West and Beverley Square West in 2025, the last two filled mostly with Queen Anne, Colonial Revival and Shingle style houses. That suburb grew along the railroad that became today's B and Q lines.

Owning one of these houses inside a historic district means exterior work goes through the LPC. Any restoration, in-kind replacement or alteration that affects the outside of the building needs an LPC permit, even for work that needs no Buildings Department permit, and work that falls outside the staff-level rules goes before the full Commission. A sagging porch, peeling wood trim or original windows can become a permit application before a contractor is allowed to start.

Plenty of owners would rather not take that on, and they don't have to: sell your house as-is in Flatbush and leave the porch, the trim and the permits to the next owner. The same applies if you simply want to sell your house for cash in Flatbush, whether the house stands on Rugby Road or a few blocks outside any district.
