re. the complete lack of price change on the clinton hill place - you've got to admire their stubborness. Not dropping a single buck!

I think you're looking for another word that starts with "st" that rhymes with "cupidity."

stick-it-out-dity?

Maybe they don't need to sell and are just looking for the stupid buyer to come along.

I really like the park place townhouse at 1.9. That oval shaped library den looks amazing.

from 5/2/08

"These are not overpriced. Get over it. I would not be surprised if Carroll Gardens and Prospect heights properties get multiple bids. And I am not a broker. Quality properties sell. Anyone who can afford 2.2 million is not affected by the economy. These are not 450000 Toll Bros. houses in a surburb of Columbus Ohio nor are they overpriced condos on 4th Ave.

HA!

The only problem Prodigal Son is that multiple bids usually come in within the first week or so of a listing....not after somethings been on the market for six months or longer!!!

DIBS- I know. I was quoting from a thread from May on the Sackett property.

They weren't my word, DIBS.

Nice throwback, Prodigal Son. The sentiment gets worse daily. Destination: -25 to -50 percent (nominally) from the peak (all 'hoods).

Sorry PS...I should have recognized that by the post.

DOW-

I clicked on the 5/2 link and backquoted the comments regarding the Sackett property. Its funny. I wonder how many times " I am not a broker" is written by a broker.

DIBS-

Its OK. I've been confused for a religious fanatic because of my handle, a liberal because I see through the fog of corporate-politico collusion and a would be assassin because I crack a sick joke on an Internet forum.

Net confusion is rampant.

Mr. B - when you "not too encouraging" - from whose perspective do you speak? I assume sellers, who hope the market stays strong. But for buyers, it IS encouraging to see prices drop, places linger, etc. as it is more irrefutable proof of the market turning and prices heading back to earth.

Meant to say, when you WRITE "not too encouraging"....
