On Friday, the price fell into the six-figure range. Think anyone will step up at the new ask of $999,000?

Condo of the Day: 302 Washington Avenue [Brownstoner]
the homes highlighted in clinton hill on brownstoner all do serious disservice to the neighborhood.
given the profile of the hood, where are the listings for 300K, 400K?
given that the median income of clinton hill is 25K a year, it would be nice to show something a little more representative of the people who actually live there.
every listing we see on here in clinton hill is obscenely overpriced.
to 1:55
That’s MR. BHS to you
thanks Brown Harris Stevens, I mean 1:47!!
And btw, just because some fool paid $700psf does not mean there is another.
Not in this market. Not in Clinton Hill.
Lower the price another 200K and you are STILL going to have a hard time finding a buyer.
Trust me.
There are 25 more beautiful listings in other nearby brownstone neighborhoods for less money than this. Maybe smaller, but much nicer with details, services, schools and trains.
before this was a condo, it was a 7 family home with NO details remaining to be saved. The details had been removed many years ago. The single floor condos above this unit sold for over $700 per sq foot. This unit is almost 1800 sq feet with central a/c and 3 b/r’s and 2.5 baths. Great space for the right person.
agreed, 1:38.
the greedy homeowners in clinton hill have officially ruined the neighborhood. now that prices are so outrageous there and people are no longer caught up in the frenzy, they realize that they can take the same money and buy in much more desirable areas with actual schools, services and subways.
the run up was so quick and intense, that the neighborhood is left with very few committed people of middle class means. there are the 1.5 and 2 million dollar brownstone owners, and then the very poor with a smattering of middle income renters thrown in.
not a good mix and won’t inspire much evolution of the neighborhood.
i see no parents getting involved there to try to improve the schools. they simply send them to private while the rest of the community suffers with the public ones.
sad, because it has lovely architecture.
Part of the problem is that they removed every iota of detail and charm from the 2 floors that would have originally had the most. OK, they wanted to do a modern, spare interior, not a period renovation, but damn. No mouldings, no architectural detail, no fireplaces, not even modern versions, no visual punch, nothing. So boring, and such a shame for what was probably originally a very nice upper middle class, suitably apportioned brownstone.
There is nothing about this place that screams “buy me”, for a million bucks, it wouldn’t matter what neighborhood it is in.
Think of all the money down the toilet by continually overpricing and staying on the market so long. Just price it right the first time. If it’s worth more then you’ll get multiple offers and will sell it for more. Let the buyers set the price.
just put it up for 700K and get rid of it.
They’ve priced this place 30% above the market for the last year. They keep dropping the price as the market comes down, but always staying about 30% too high. This is the paradigm of bad pricing.
