House of the Day: 106 Lincoln Place
Except for the recessed lighting on the parlor floor (and the lack of some crown moldings), the brownstone at 106 Lincoln Place in Park Slope is looking pretty tasty. (The single-family house is one of six in a row designed by Brooklyn architect F. B. Langston in the late 1880s.) There’s some drool-worthy woodwork and…

Except for the recessed lighting on the parlor floor (and the lack of some crown moldings), the brownstone at 106 Lincoln Place in Park Slope is looking pretty tasty. (The single-family house is one of six in a row designed by Brooklyn architect F. B. Langston in the late 1880s.) There’s some drool-worthy woodwork and a permanent parking space to boot. The price of $3,150,000 feels pretty 2007 to us but it’s certainly not impossible for something like this in move-in condition.

I’ll bring cupcakes to the closing.
This house and the ones on either side that were listed in the fall are all owned by the same guy. He has listed them with different agencies hoping to cover as much of the market as possible. He didn’t tell all the brokers this at the time. Several were more than a bit miffed on sunday. Don’t know why they were surprised given he did the same thing in the fall.
All are way over priced and the wood work is not that nice up close.
As for those saying it will sell, they didn’t sell a few months ago. Why now?
I agree that Sterling house is nicer if you want a high-end, but narrow house.
Yippy, we found a buyer.
3:50 – is going to offer asking.
Anybody want to counter offer?
Oh, you rich people always want the best rates.
We could pay nearly all cash.
The wife and I bought a 2 bedroom on the Upper West Side in the early 90’s for 150K and just sold it for 1.7 million.
We’d be able to put that into the down payment and then some money the wife inherited a couple years back. We’d probably have a mortgage of maybe 600K or so.
In a rental now looking for the right house and have focussed on PS because of the schools. This in ps. 321?
@2:11:
If you know someone giving out $2.4m super jumbo 30 fixed rate mortgages at under 6%, could you pass on the information?
I’m having trouble finding anyone willing to do it at any rate, and even below $2m they want 8%, which makes the monthly payment $17,600, mostly not deductible, of course, so the banks are looking for better income coverage than usual. Basically, they want verifiable income (not bonuses) of about $800k for this.
Morgan Spurlock is the name of the guy from Super Size Me that I was referring to. Couldn’t remember his name.
I’m 3:39…and I meant Sarcasm.
Bad me.
Union Garage is 500 a month.
That’s 6000 a year.
or $180,000 for 30 years.
So yes, I’d say 250K premium to have it right there on your property sounds about right.
