41-St-Marks-Place-Brooklyn-0108.jpg
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 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.

  1. MEMO to the broker: If you’ve been paying attention and following the comps, which you probably haven’t, you will have noticed that 60 St. Mark’s, a beautiful 1-family brownstone in REAL Park Slope failed to sell at $2.65 million and was taken off the market after many months and many open houses. It started at $2.8 million. Dream on that your listing will be able to pull it off.

  2. Okay folks this place is not in PS,probably needs a ton of work (no interior photos) and is overpriced by @ least $1 million. Now as for the cute but brainless babe she is included in the price…new sales technique for marginal homes in marginal hoods 🙂 haha

  3. Synchronize your watches, folks. It’s now 2:43 PM, and we know every brokerage reads this blog, especially when one of their listings is HOTD. How long do you think it’ll take Elliman to rewrite and repost the description? (Note: this is a test. It’s a holiday weekend, so we’ll see if Elliman’s paying attention 24/7, as any brokerage should on behalf of its clients – to say nothing of the fact that it should have caught the errors before they went live.)
