House of the Day: 185 St. James Place
We were poking around for houses on the market in Clinton Hill yesterday and realized that there are hardly any for sale right now. Strange. One that is, and that has flown beneath our radar despite being only a block away from our place, is 185 St. James Place. From what we can, the four-story…
We were poking around for houses on the market in Clinton Hill yesterday and realized that there are hardly any for sale right now. Strange. One that is, and that has flown beneath our radar despite being only a block away from our place, is 185 St. James Place. From what we can, the four-story brick is quite attractively priced at $1,200,000. We haven’t seen anything of this size and charm for sale in the area at this price for a long, long time. Are we missing something or is this actually a good deal?

Agreed 5:32. Let’s all move on now.
5:26 – people make irrational decisions all the time. We need look no further than our current government.
5:12 – that is a pretty sexist comment. Had 4:55 used the pronoun “he” you would have no issue. However, since 4:55 used “she” you automatically assumed that instead of using a pronoun to describe an unknown individual, 4:55 must have known the sex of the individual.
He and she I am not an English major, but I do recall that it is perfectly acceptable to use the pronoun he or she when describing a person of unknown sex.
Dealing with 3location- sounds about right to me. They are not the most professional people.
How can you do any CYA or get evidence from a 90% anonymous blog?
“Well I read it on Brownstoner”
If there is a bidding war, there is usually a final closed envelope bid (been part of 3 of these as buyer, and sold our apt this way)
What is this “i’ll bid 20k over” BS?
5:12 – how can it so “clearly” be a lie if you already also acknowledge that the agent could have divulged the info?
I agree with 4:59. You are definitely the broker doing a little CYA action or the winning bidder trying to get some “evidence” against the broker. Hilarious!
4:55 bidding the place up like that just creates a higher comp and leads to the one you will eventually buy being priced higher. You just screw yourself in the end.
4:55 you will find a home, hell since you people are always talking about foreclosed homes in Bedford Stuyvesant there are some really nice ones that are going up soon one is 119 MacDonough Street in historic Stuyvesant Heights its like 400K. The other one is 259 or 257 not sure which one very nice home on Hancock Street check out the photo here: http://www.nyc-architecture.com/BES/BED017-255-259HancockSt.htm
