Clinton Hill Condo Being Auctioned

A reader wrote in with a question about a former COTD at 302 Washington Avenue: “There is a huge sign on the DeKalb side of 302 Washington, by the bus stop, saying “3 Bedroom Apt. Auction.” This building took a long time to sell initially – I wonder what this auction thing means?” Turns out the duplex unit is in fact up for a sealed-bid auction. The minimum bid is $549,000 and the deadline is December 15th. The sales history of the condo is a little murky, but the 1,800-square-foot space was asking $899,995 as of last month. The unit’s listing is still up on the Brownstoner Marketplace with a few more details. We’ll see if someone ends up getting a really good deal.
