House of the Day: 242 Washington Avenue
We had already started to write up 242 Washington Avenue as a House of the Day when it hit us: We’ve been inside that house. We were guests at a lovely al fresco dinner party last summer. In fact, Mrs. B had just been talking about how the owner’s duplex would make a good interiors…
We had already started to write up 242 Washington Avenue as a House of the Day when it hit us: We’ve been inside that house. We were guests at a lovely al fresco dinner party last summer. In fact, Mrs. B had just been talking about how the owner’s duplex would make a good interiors post. Given the conflict of interest, we’ll steer clear of opining about the $2,300,000 asking price, and just say that the owner’s duplex of this five-story, 5,500-square-foot house is really nicely done in a simple but elegant manner. We’ve never seen the upper three rental units, but judging from the photos they’re not as nice. They do, as the listing points out, generate over $50,000 a year in income. This’ll be an interesting one to watch.

It would be more fun to give our homes to the marshalls than to a schmuck like you!
“…significant rent decreases as well as home price decreases…”
From the last bust ’87 to ’95.
“It is going to be hysterical in a few years when all you trolls are going to be so out priced and over. Stupids…we owners in Fort Greene and Clinton Hill WILL NEVER LOWER OUR PRICES. Got that.. NEVER. WE will leave these homes to our children and their children before you ass farts think you will get them.”
…meanwhile, as the city marshalls knock on the door…

Mature perhaps not but S-M-A-R-T. Go look in the Stuy if you even can afford that!
9:31,
I’m smarter than you but that’s not saying much. So they go down a half a percent, that’s still down, not “will always go up exponentially over time”. My claim that rents go down are from an old NYT article quoting a Carrol Gardens broker who cited significant rent decreases as well as home price decreases. So I’d expect more than a half a percent down. Take out the broker propaganda and we probably have that now.
Were you really the one who said rents go up exponentially?

Agreed, by the way how much did brownstowner earn by this thread alone. Smart man. You are all ass holes. Brownstoner did not do anything here except line his own pockets.
that was mature, 9:33.
