There are not a lot of sales taking place in the Brownstone Belt these days (most seem to be to the east or the south), but these two are proof that a few are still getting done. A garden duplex at 317 3rd Street closed for the asking price of $549,000 on January 21 while a two-bedroom at 59 Pineapple Street closed for $850,000 on January 15. The 3rd Street deal definitely came together post-Lehman, as we suspect Pineapple Street did as well. What do you read into these?

  1. If the market has as you said BH76 come to a screeching halt – then who is out there looking and buying? People are in fact doing so, maybe not in droves but there are folks out there and they aren’t offering 50%off comps!

  2. cornerbodega is right. The rare honest broker will tell you that the market has essentially come to a stop. Most people who are looking are hoping for desperation — “bid half off comps.”

  3. “And yet, BHO, contrary to what you may believe, places are selling every day. Truly amazing.” ~ Dibs

    Another day, another idiotic post from Dibs. Hey, Dibs guess what, people are still buying cars on a daily basis.
