Dave is right about what, CGar? That we’ve bottomed?! No cigar! Look at the data above. Look at the PDE report. Look at the NYT article. Do you understand what a market bottom is and all the circumstances around it?
Listed inventory might be tight now due to banks dragging their feet but you will suffer loss if you fall for it.
um ew? i think u know why. actually im a little freaking out. yesterday i was getting into the shower and i saw a strange little bug on the ceiling of the shower. i got it with a mop and it fell in the tub and looked like a bedbug, but not really. i squished it and red blood came out. UGH but i was in such a tizzy about it i flushed it down the toilet and now i dont know if it was or not.. would a bedbug be on the ceiling in a bathroom? it was small and brown and not a roach, and even tho ive seen bedbugs before i dont know if this was one or not. what do stinkbugs look like? maybe it was that? ive never seen red blood come out of any other bug when you squish it other than a bedbug. an i just being paranoid?
im supposed to go the beach today but im in such a funky mood i dont wanna do anything. the F goes to coney island right? how long will it take from park slope? is there a train at atlantic i can hop on to get to coney island? or do i have to go to street 9 and avenue 4?
If i were you and DIDN’T have such a long term relationship with your broker I’d be all over the internet and with the newspapers about that situation.
For all you know she never presented the offer to the seller.
Yeah, M4L, but that only works best in cities. Not everyone lives in a city. Why not allow people to stay in their homes? MOST people are mortified to be in this position, having been responsible their entire lives. The percentage of deadbeats who have no problem defaulting and then walking on to something else do not represent the majority of forclosures. This is a family home to most people, not just an old car or an underperforming stock. The banks aren’t happy either way, as I see it. They end up with properties they can’t move, or have to refi at very low rates with the defaulted balance tucked on the back end of the loan. But since they caused the problem, I don’t have much pity for the mega banks.
“Ask the buyers, BHO. Ask m4l, who has bid on places.”
Don’t really want to get sucked into this conversation, but, yeah, Dave’s right. I’m seeing a lot of good properties go for 10% more than a year ago, and go quickly. NOT everything — cookie cutter apartments, overpriced apartments, are sitting, and suffering from price cuts. But I overbid ask on a house in Cobble Hill a week ago, and, though the seller’s broker has yet to deign to get back to my broker in the same office, it looks like it went to someone who paid perhaps $100k over ask.

“10% more than a year ago”
Can’t double dip without a bounce. You’re biting.

Just take the F, rob. All the trains go local after a certain point anyway.

That’s NINE consecutive months of RED MOM decline after FOUR months of consecutive MOM rise! Yes, double dip HERE. The YOY will follow.

CGar, she should be reported to the RE Board.

Carry on.
