We took a gander at this listing at 73 New York Avenue in Crown Heights last October when it was with Corley Real Estate asking $1,429,000. Fast forward eight months and the thing hasn’t sold. What’s your move as the owner? Jack the price another 10 percent and give it to a brokerage firm with almost no reach with buyers looking to drop $1,600,000 on a house. Of course, the point is kinda moot, since even buyers who can spend that much ain’t gonna do it here (even though the house itself certainly has its charms). The house has been carved up into four units, the site didn’t make the cut into the historic district and there’s a bus stop right in front of the house. Doesn’t mean there wouldn’t be a line around the block at the right price but this asking price is a pipe dream.
