House of the Day: 905 Lincoln Place
Here’s a new listing that probably would have been priced $100,000 or $200,000 higher a few months ago. It’s a three-story, two-family limestone at 905 Lincoln Place in Crown Heights. The block is lovely and the house has amazing wood moldings and floors; no word on the bathrooms and kitchens. Anyway, there’s something refreshingly solid…

Anyway, there’s something refreshingly solid about this one: Beautiful but not grandiose house priced at a level that a non-Wall Street family can afford. Think it’ll go for the asking price?

3:23 – I’m 3:15 and if you think I’m waiting to find an inexpensive home on brownstoner YOU – YOU are delusional.
Yes, 3:23 this is the only site I visit to view listings. This is where I get all my information.
I’m following the advice of ‘The What’
We’re not all idiots here.
I *like* the agents’ funny little hats!
But what happened to the propellers?
Sorry, and the price is below $650k!
I have a lead on a 4 story brownstone on the 300 block of Hancock Street. Email me at Gotham_Greatest@Yahoo.com if anyone is interested.
3:15, if you want a cheaper fixer-upper, why are you wasting your time with corco?
hit the pavements, look for signs, ask neighbors if anyone wants to sell.
DON”T wait to see it on Brownstoner. when you see what you like, don’t wait to ask your uncle joe and the guy from your office whether it sounds like a good deal. buy it.
i saw a place MUCH NICER than this one across the street on Lincoln Pl. listed on CL in december.
accepted offer was 7-something, within a week.
625.
“Lincoln Place is only one block north of Eastern Parkway, so the subway is literally around the corner”
Wish is a good thing, so you can quickly get home before being robbed.
It’s crown heights, people. Crime is up in that neighborhood.
That house is worth….your life???
Nice house for 700K tops.
Don’t pay more than that.
In 2010 that will be what this house is worth.
Asking price should be $789….and I’ll offer $725.
I’m very biased AGAINST Corcoran, when I see a listing from them I cringe.
We were looking to buy a house in Crown Heights. We went to a couple of open houses by Corcoran, didn’t like the houses, but we spoke to the agents there and told them what we were looking for and how much. They said they’d get back to us.
Well, we had a couple of phone conversations and we were trying to set up a time to see a house, but then the agent never called me back. NEVER!
We eventually dropped the search for a house waiting to see what the market does. (we don’t have alot of money, so we need to spend it wisely – we were hoping prices would drop a little).
I think Corcoran is not interested in a buyer unless they can plunk down over 1 million on a house (and we can’t).
Our cut off is $750 – anybody know of anything.
Still dreaming of a fixer upper in a crappy neighborhood to call my home.
