Why Work With a Specialist
Your Crown Heights Brownstone Agent
I'm Omari Toomer, a licensed real estate salesperson at Corcoran with 20+ years of experience working exclusively with brownstones, townhouses, and multifamily properties across Brooklyn and Western Queens. Crown Heights is part of the North Brooklyn corridor I've worked throughout my career.
Crown Heights is increasingly attracting buyers who understand the neighborhood's trajectory and are buying ahead of the curve. The brownstone stock here is strong — similar architecture to Bed-Stuy, with proximity to Prospect Park and Eastern Parkway as additional value drivers. I've worked Crown Heights brownstone sales and multifamily properties extensively, and I understand what's actually moving and at what prices on specific blocks.

Many are 3-4 story attached row houses, originally single-family and commonly converted to 2-3 family configurations.
