stevie, as per our conversation last week, where r u actually looking for a house or condo???
Why would muffet move to Ditmas? As we all know, pretty soon she’ll be able to afford a nice house on 3rd street and PPW. Ditmas would mean she threw in the towel.
” such person has a view and a goal, but is not accurately able to predict the current state of the market.”
Actually, the current state of the market can be said with 100% certainty.
why the relunctance?
reluctantly i address our new troll, stevieb, probably the first (and hopefully last) person to claim the what as his personal savior. i mean, seriously? as per your 1200p post:
is someone with intimate knowledge of many of the hotd (ie s/he actually visits homes and claims to be in the market) really “more right than wrong” if they consistently underestimate the actual sales price by more than the casual observers who are shopping via internet listings only?
allow me to rephrase, does such a person qualify as a real estate expert if the collective monkeys on brownstoner (via the widget) consistently do better?
no. such person has a view and a goal, but is not accurately able to predict the current state of the market. such person is just one more monkey.
you’ve confused certainty with accuracy.
MM, nice come back!
11217, you have just been PWNED! ROTFL!
Apparently not, DIBS.
Miss Muffet, what are your thoughts on moving to Ditmas Park? You get more for your money and once your youngest one starts school, you will have the choice of continuing with a PS school or PS 217. I hear PS 217 is an up and coming magnet school in Ditmas Park.
>>I suggest you write Mr. B about stevieb
11217, you remind me of the sniveling, brown nosing and nerdy kids I used to have in my class who ran crying to their teachers to tell on anyone who picks on them. You try to ingratiate yourself with Mr.B the same way a teacher’s pet would. You are pathetic, you know that?! Snitching Bitch!
