72-berry-5-28.jpgCall it the little condo that could: Williamsburg success story Mason Fiske, aka 72 Berry Street, is now completely sold out, according to its broker. The converted industrial loft hit the market at the beginning of March, and 17 of its 26 units were in contract by early April. Units in the project were asking around $650 a foot on average, about $100 less than bigger projects in the neighborhood like Northside Piers, according to the Real Deal.

  1. “BTW, did 72 Berry REALLY sell out? As in not only in-contract but actual CLOSINGS.”

    The kvetching about 72 Berry is pretty silly. Sales started in March, which is a completely different market than most new development sales started in. At this point, buyers are at least a little more cognizant of the bubble that was. I’d be more surprised if more than a handful DON’T close. This is when it shows that some people will be bearish for bearishness’ sake, instead of, you know, reason.

  2. “Forget it Heather, BHO and cornerbodega have all the answers. They just don’t have homes.”

    We have all the questions. We just don’t have answers.

    Market at large, sebb. What’s the rate of decline in price and volume for your ‘hoods? Positive or negative?

  3. “I made a lot of money in Japan in the eighties, What, because I knew exactly what was going on there. I didn’t live there.

    I know exactly what was going on in NYC in the 70s and 80s. I didn’t have to live, just visit every now and then to realize how bad it was. FOOL.” ~dibs

    So in the 80s dibs made a fortune in Japan, became the king of ny because he was a tourist, and despite all this wealth and knowledge ended up present day in the ghetto? I love posts by Dibs, I really hahahhaa lmao do!

  4. 3:22 for me, DIBS? I’ve been to Center City (20th/South St area, right?). And where did lechacal say my cred was shot? Once again, what’s the “score” in Center City? SCORE??? (change from peak)

    BTW, did 72 Berry REALLY sell out? As in not only in-contract but actual CLOSINGS.
