Corcoran Serving Value Meals in Brooklyn in May
In an effort to inject some sense of urgency among buyers, Corcoran is teeing up three Saturdays worth of neighborhood walking tours with special one-day incentives hidden at each stop: price reductions, renovation credits and closing cost discounts will all be used as carrots.

In an effort to inject some sense of urgency among buyers, Corcoran is teeing up three Saturdays worth of neighborhood walking tours with special one-day incentives hidden at each stop: price reductions, renovation credits and closing cost discounts will all be used as carrots. (They’ll save the sticks for making the sellers lower their prices!) Four walking tours are scheduled for this weekend: Bed Stuy/Bushwick, Clinton Hill/Fort Greene, Crown Heights and Williamsburg. Pretty smart way to leverage the firm’s scale, we’d say. Of course, it’ll only matter if it results in some deals. Park Slope down through PLG is set for May 16 with Dumbo and BoCoCa planned for May 30th.
The Corcoran idea is a good one. Though I wouldn’t pay too much attention to the notion of one-day discounts. And some of these prices are still much too high.
We saw the Van Buren St. house this past weekend, it’s very nice and the location seems good (doesn’t VanBurenProud live on that block?). It has pretty much all the original details, but was very dark. I guess the skylight needs to be put back (it was taken out), and the divider between units removed. Hopefully that would fix the darkness problem. Also the baths and kitchens, as usual, are Home Depot specials that have seen far better days, and they need the usual upgrading. Price seems reasonable.
Sorry, What. I just didn’t see any other relevance in you bringing up the Crunch bankruptcy. 🙂
Sounds like we either are at the beginning of an anemic recovery or on the precipice of greater disaster than is imaginable. Which will it be?
“I’m a home price activist.”
Most self-serving, self aggrandizing statement of the day. What an ego on this one.
“What and BHO are just upset they can’t meet each other in the Crunch steam rooms anymore.”
No Ad-Homoinhim!
Hey Retards! It just keeps getting better….

May 6 (Bloomberg) — Regulators have determined that Bank of America Corp. requires about $34 billion in new capital, the largest need among the 19 biggest U.S. banks subjected to stress tests, said a person with knowledge of the matter. Bank of America rose 9 percent in early New York trading.

“Banks that want to return money injected by the Treasury since October must show they can borrow from private investors without a Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. guarantee, according to people familiar with the matter.”
It does not matter any more the Banking System is INSOLVENT!

Heh. Got my boards mixed up, this is for owners not renters
“What and BHO are just upset they can’t meet each other in the Crunch steam rooms anymore.”
What used to jerk off in the steam room? Gross.

fobsdelhi…i was responding to your 1;24 post which does make sense, as does your 1:40 but I don’t want to get into the gentrification talk for fear that the What will threaten me with a felony “pre-gentrification style” 🙂
bridges: Pull back the red herring and put it slowly back in the jar. Thanks.
