House of the Day: 41 St. Marks Place
It usually takes a few weeks or months for a seller to face the reality that an asking price is too high. In the case of 41 St. Marks Place, a three-story brownstone between 3rd and 4th Avenues in Park Slope, it only took a few days. Listed at $3,000,000 on January 14, the three-family…

In the case of 41 St. Marks Place, a three-story brownstone between 3rd and 4th Avenues in Park Slope, it only took a few days. Listed at $3,000,000 on January 14, the three-family was reduced to $2,650,000 on January 18. Still probably too much for a stoop-less house on the far side of 4th Avenue, but a step in the right direction to be sure.

actually we have three very close to full prices offers on 112 st marks and a full price all cash deal in the works.WE are still showing till contracts get signed but wow this house is only 2 weeks on the market. Several others want come back with their contractors etc. and the only place we listed it so far was craigslist. we are having our last open house this sunday hopefull contracts will be signed by next week by first offer or all cash deal offer
Do you really want to know my opinion? After seeing the house I can predict that you will be there for the next few years, showing the house every Sunday between 12-2. With that price and the work that has to be done, you (or the owner) must be kidding. Nobody will give you more than 900,000–999,000.
We just listed a 4 story Brownstone at 112 ST Marks place btw 4th and 5th ave at 1.5 million.It has original detials galore.
We will be holding an open house every sunday 12-2 until it sells. The brownstone will be delivered vacant.

I value your opinion on this board , what do you guys think?
Maybe the high price was decided on because the amenities include being conveniently located 3 or 4 doors down from the CRACK DEALERS on the block.
The neighbors also like to beat the shit out of their small children, so you’ll never need to Netflix a horror movie again. You can enjoy a never-ending stream of screaming and wailing just by stepping outside.
If you don’t like that, you can be sure to call the police who will respond by giving the drug dealer’s your address so they can take it up with you personally.
Who WOULDN’T want to live on that block?
OK, nobody will ever read this post as it’s scrolled into the archive. But lordy lord, PDE has CORRECTED the description, DAYS after all the comments above. It thinks.

Revised text: “It has full basement exits to the lovingly garden.”
So much for Prudential Douglas Elliman catering to high end clients (whether sellers or buyers). Think maybe a few of the people with over $2M to blow on a brownstone speak English? If a brokerage can’t even be trusted to write a grammatical sentence, who in their right mind would trust it to sell a building?

OK, folks, that’s all she wrote. It’s now 6:38 PM the day AFTER we ranted on this listing, and Elliman STILL hasn’t corrected its text. Looks like their office (Oh, horrors!) DOESN’T READ BROWNSTONER! Is there any more to be said? Prudential Douglas Elliman is clearly unqualified to sell real estate in Brownstone Brooklyn!
The problem with your assesment 10:58 is the bank will finance a percentage of what it appariases at TODAY, not 2011, 2015, 2020, or even 2006/07. The only thing that matters are what the comps are in 2008. If you are buying this place cash, then by all means spend the 3 million. BTW, we can easily say that a gallon of milk, a ride on the subway, a ticket to a ball game are going to cost more by 2015. Big deal, especially predicting real estate will rise a year after a dowturn has occured. If my aunt had balls she would be my uncle. How is that for a keen sense of the obvious.
you could buy all of florida with the sale of a carroll gardens brownstone these days.
i really have a hard time imagining too many people moving to florida these days.
besides sunshine, it really doesn’t have a lot going for it.
i recently read that it will be at least 20 years before florida goes back to 2006 home price levels.
