We all know the real estate market in Williamsburg is cra-zay, but apparently it's driving the real estate brokers nuts, too update: Justin Farrow returned our email and explained that he is no longer a real estate agent. In this video, area man Justin Farrow shows off his sweet bachelor pad, inside a van in an abandoned warehouse. Crazy, or crazy like a fox? Something to consider when you're signing the rent check in a couple of days. Be sure to check out his view from the roof at the four minute mark (and place bets in the comments on how soon Farrow removes the video after the Internet figures out the location):

And with the money he saves on rent, he can afford plenty of rat traps! Farrow, who also does a lot of street art photography and does not appear to be your average unctuous Glengarry Glen Ross-type realtor, explains:

Don't be scared. This is a simple experiment in housing. In an undisclosed location, inside one of the most desirable neighborhoods to live in the US (Williamsburg, Brooklyn), I am purposefully living inside my van, parked in a 4 story spooky warehouse which is currently for sale for over $25 million dollars. In less than a year, this building will be converted into hundreds of condos. As a real estate agent for over 10 yrs in NYC, I could live anywhere I want, but I chose this. In a round-about-way, this is my statement on Gentrification as New World Colonialism. More to come...

As Farrow boasts at the top of the video, "I got everything I need in here. Flatscreen TV...All of the comforts of home. Kinda." See, this guy knows how to beat the system. By choice.
