open-house-picks-6ml-111215

Our open house picks from six months ago got a good response: Two sold, one is in contract, and one is still listed, at a reduced price.

As we noted six months ago, this batch of picks all had lots of curb appeal, including a Queen Anne facade in Park Slope with an interesting cornice and handsome bow fronts on the rest.

Despite its lovely exterior, the Park Slope pick sold for $250,000 under ask.

In Bed Stuy, a multifamily brownstone (with jacuzzi) is still available, and the price has dropped $150,001.

An eleven-room Bay Ridge duplex is in contract — if it’s already closed, the sale has yet to hit public records.

In Crown Heights, our bargain pick in need of renovation went for $12,000 over ask — although still well under $1,000,000.
