House of the Day: 162 Bergen Street
We’re not sure how we’ve managed to not discuss 162 Bergen Street yet, given that it’s been on the market since October of last year. Despite not selling for more than six months, the price has remained constant at $2,300,000. While hardly a give-away, we’re actually a little surprised that there hasn’t been one buyer…
We’re not sure how we’ve managed to not discuss 162 Bergen Street yet, given that it’s been on the market since October of last year. Despite not selling for more than six months, the price has remained constant at $2,300,000. While hardly a give-away, we’re actually a little surprised that there hasn’t been one buyer out there who’s fallen in love and been willing to meet the ask. After all, this place has tons o’ charm and is in a hot location. What’s the catch? Does it need more work than the photos suggest?

all public housing is not the same. I lived on 24th St in Chelsea for 10 years across the street from safe (but ugly) public housing.
some housing projects are more dangerous than others however, and the ones we’re talking about are not good.
I mean, can’t people think at ALL? You don’t have to rule out living near any housing, but you can decide you’d rather not live across the street from a seriously dangerous area
2:42pm, in my experience, your information is incorrect, or at least incomplete. I’ve been dealing with banks & mortgage brokers and although my FICO score is in the top quintile I am getting 7%+ and am being consistently told that the Jumbo rates are sky-high. (This is for a 30 yr fixed…perhaps you’re looking at something else.) I think my issue is that I’m self-employed, so perhaps you have a solid W2 and that’s making the difference, but these are people I sincerely trust and have done business with for years and they are telling me the Jumbo market is insane and second mortgages are even more difficult to obtain.
3:42, WTF you talkin’ bout’ Willis?
poo = racist?!
daveinbedstuy is the biggest jag off on this board . . . except maybe Polemicist when he’s off his meds.
seriously, get a life.
Thanks for enlightening us 3:34. so let’s rule at living in neighborhoods like like Chelsea, Upper West Side, lower east side etc. Living there must suck since they have public housing. Suggest you focus on 5th Ave through Park. 59th to 79th St. That’s about the only area I know that’s not near public housing.
3:40 = racist bigot
Many people who buy a $2.3 mil home will send their children to private school.
I know 4 people who own brownstones just like this one on either Bergen or Dean within 2 blocks and all of their children go to private.
Dear 2:28, a.k.a. Self-Styled LogicMaster 2000:
Must one eat the poo to know it tastes foul?
newbie pinheads suck, end of chat.
