Babs Still Bullish on Brooklyn

barbara-corcoran-1108.jpgWhile it seems no one else is, Barbara Corcoran is still buying in Brooklyn. According to a Page Six item today, Babs has recently bought two multi-family brownstones in the borough. They're probably counting this as one. Where's the other? (Presumably this one from back in 2005 doesn't count as recent.)

Yo What Asshat......you ask people to have an intelligent conversation with you in your Forum Post and then you continue to post this shit all over. Get a life.

Hey DIBS;

Do you think I should pursue a licensing agreement with The What, given that he's taken my post as some sort of logo or "mission statement"??

Seriously, I think the guy has lost it, as you and Biff remarked earlier.

Does she look tired to you?

Posted by: Karka at November 19, 2008 10:48 AM

I guess I now look stupid since the What's post was deleted.

The idea that Barbara Corcoran is bullish on Brooklyn is as predictable and obvious as could be. Next on the newsfront, the sun rises in the morning!

Yes, Karka, she does look tired.
Tired of lying, tired of falsely inflating the market, tired of being "part of the problem".

PS...I understand your apprehension but she is actually no longer owner of the real estate firm; having sold it for some $60MM or so.

She does look a bit tired but I'll bet there's a lot of lurkers thinking "GILF"

Posted by: daveinbedstuy at November 19, 2008 10:56 AM

DIBS,

Understood on her no longer being part of the company, but still....guilt by association.

Agreed on GILF, non lurking.

Her bank account is sexy as all hell.

THL...are you saying that for money you might.......

Posted by: daveinbedstuy at November 19, 2008 3:29 PM

I'm going to have to say no (even though I did have to think about it for a sec).

Posted by: TownhouseLady at November 19, 2008 3:39 PM

Not even for half of $60 MM?

Posted by: daveinbedstuy at November 19, 2008 3:40 PM

...actually...come to think of it...I would be able to live in a pretty sweet house in a prime local, right?? Nah, can't do it.

Posted by: TownhouseLady at November 19, 2008 3:40 PM

Daveinbed,
She meant the "bank account is sexy". That's it.
