greenehouseext0707.jpgThe asking price on the penthouse at the Greene House condos in Fort Greene was reduced by more than 10 percent last week from $2,100,000 to $1,875,000. As Set Speed has documented each step of the way, this is the fourth time that there’s been a price cut at the 1,425-square-foot (not counting more than 700 exterior square feet) three-bedroom condo. The asking price started out at $2,750,000 last February before dropping to $2,500,000 in March and $2,100,000 in May. It’s not time for a pity party yet though: As far as we can tell, there are three penthouses in the building, each of which originally sold for $1,206,000. So unless the owner of this one dumped hundreds of thousands of dollars into renovating it, he (or she) still has a pretty nice paper profit to work with.

  1. Well there’s certainly jealousy for those who earn money in real estate speculation. We see that plenty, here.

    I can understand the question though, because the owner of this place is greedy greedy and not a terribly realistic person. This is nuts. They overpriced it by a million bucks (if not more, when all is said and done) when they first listed it? Did Corcoran have the listing then too? What were they thinking?
