There have already been some signs that the Brooklyn market has not getting as beat up as Manhattan of late but this may be the most bullish indicator of Brooklyn’s prospects we’ve seen yet: As of the middle of the day yesterday, the ten most viewed open houses on Corcoran were all in Brooklyn. “We hope that this unique feature can give you a timely insight into the online real estate market,” reads the site. Indeed!

Oh, that note of panic –I love it, Dave. How exactly does a slumlord escape a deflationary bust? Inform me.
northsloperenter…I’ve heard of 1.5 baths but what is a half bedroom? The broker is the owner so that’s definitely brokerspeak.
Whuh, you continue to amaze me with your inability to grasp whats going on in the real world. You have truly taken the lead from the other loons as the craziest.
LOTD award goes to you, even this early in the day!!!!
Following your lead, Dave. The great thing is, nothing either of us says on here has the slightest effect on either the high end sales market or the slumlord rental market; so feel free to talk your little book, even as it collapses around you.
“It is impossible to conclude from the information provided that people prefer to look at open houses in Brooklyn over Manhattan. Perhaps there are fewer available properties at a certain price point in Brooklyn and so house hunters are forced to view a smaller crop of properties.”
Totally agreed.
Also, is no one here cynical enough to think that maybe these “most viewed” are not really based on the most clicks, but on what Corcoran needs to push?? Come on.
The rental on president 6th/7th is interesting. $1975/month? Really?
That is a much lower price than I’ve seen for a 1.5 bedroom floor thru in the center slope. I’m sure it is the top 2 floors and small for a 1.5 bedroom, but I’m use to seeing these advertised at $2500+.

I think one thing that folks are missing here is that we need to know if these are new listings or how long theyve been on the market. All new listings get big hit the first coupla weeks. Then things start to slow down. ESPECIALLY in this market. Things can remain steady for a little while if it’s priced right. THEN, if there’s a price reduction, boom..you get another hit. It’s a good feature to have BUt it doesn’t really tell you why
Sorry, I did forget that one…but he’s in a truly different category. We don’t know where the Whuh and cornholedinthebodega live do we?.
sam is in awe that I’m related to Polly Noonan.
