This week on Brick Underground, we explored one of the city's last women-only residences (with $1,400 per month rents—in Manhattan, no less), learned about a less-than-20-percent down payment, and much more.

1. Go inside the Webster Apartments, one of the city's few remaining women-only residences

2. What you need to know before buying an apartment in a brownstone

3. New options for buyers who can't come up with a 20 percent down payment

4. Here's what happens when a lifelong New Yorker visits Los Angeles for the first time

5. Co-op pick of the week: Bookworms will love this loft-like duplex beside Central Park
