Imagine you have around $2,000,000 to spend on a place and you've narrowed it down to two apartments. How do you make up your mind? The answer is simple: you shove them into a metaphorical cage and let them battle it out until one emerges victorious. It's time for Real Estate Deathmatch.

Price: $1,795,000 $1,950,000
Monthly Costs: $938 $1,458

↑ This duplex garden co-op in 645 Carlton Avenue was recently renovated, which is a point in its favor, as is the garden itself, which is lovely. It has a number of restored prewar details, a functional fireplace, bay windows, etc. There also appears to be a huge walk-in closet, although it's a little difficult to tell what's going on. In addition, it's on the Park Slope side of Prospect Heights.


↑ On the Crown Heights side, this For Sale By Owner condo in 225 Eastern Parkway has three bedrooms to the other place's two. It also has some nice details, and boasts "a hallway as big as a bowling alley," according to the brokerbabble.
