1:20,
“Nostradamus”? LMFAO. Nice. I’m actually renting a floor-thru for 1k/mo in prime Clinton Hill with utilities included. Not everyone is that fortunate but rent CAN be had for significantly less than the 2k lower limit you state (maybe not in prime C.H.). Even still, it’s far cheaper than buying at current prices. Rents will drop too until all the inventory gets “dumped”.
I didn’t say I can time well, I said I PREDICT. I could be wrong. I could be right. Nevertheless, a severe correction by 2010 is my call. Look up the word “predict”. Enjoy catching the falling knives. Sorry if I fogged up your rose-tinted shades.
Saw those DeGraw apartments when they were first built in 2001. Not much character, and I think they were going for close to $400,000 then (or maybe more), so by the standards of other properties, haven’t appreciated as much as some other places. But parking and location are nice.
Anon 12:38 “I predict liquidation sale by 2010. We wait for clothes to go on sale. Why not homes?”
If I understand you Nostradamus, you are waiting for a correction you think is comming in 2010. Renting for 2-3k a month in the meantime. That is ridiculous if you could time markets that well you would have more money than you knew what to do with. Enjoy the wait, I hope you are wearing cloths.
Just look at the photos and floor plan. The one that sold had the bottom floor underground. The one you posted has private deck and ‘lounge’ area and probably gets tons more lights and less ground noise.
I’m not saying it’s worth over a million though…
Look at this at same address on Degraw– why so much more?http://www.corcoran.com/property/listing.aspx?Region=NYC&ListingID=907024
Anon 12:43, I understand ya. I guess I just wonder because if I were an interested buyer and liked this place, I’d have tried to figure how long it was on the market and make my offer accordingly. Obviously there wasn’t likely going to be a bidding war if there had been little interest so far, so why not offer at asking, at least?
EJ, maybe the apt just needed that long for the right people to show up. Nothing more to it than that, perhaps.
“…I don’t live here.”
Or rent and save here. Doomsday will come. I predict liquidation sale by 2010. We wait for clothes to go on sale. Why not homes?
Hey 12:21. Grim? It’s FUGLY and embarassing. If that’s all I could afford in Brooklyn, I don’t live here.
