House of the Day: 47 Sidney Place
The oddest thing about the new listing for 47 Sidney Place in Brooklyn Heights is the broker the sellers chose to use: Tabak.

The oddest thing about the new listing for 47 Sidney Place in Brooklyn Heights is the broker the sellers chose to use: Tabak. We can’t recall them ever having a Brooklyn listing, and they’re not likely to get a whole lot more giving the lame, lazy effort they’re making on this two-family house. With a price tag of $5,250,000, you’d think they could take a nice shot of the exterior and include some interior views as well. As it is, it’s pretty hard to comment on the pricing. The description makes the house sound pretty fancy schmancy, but without pics there’s no way to know whether it’s well-done, or just nouveau cheese.

For what it is worth, Sydney Place is a lovely, lovely street in Brooklyn Heights. I would move there in an instant if I could afford it.
for that kind of price, I hope the prominent lightpole is included!
I got a reply back from the broker who said he had just listed it and “the photographer will be taking pictures and they will be up soon.” The he reminded me of the open house.
So, no help whatsover from Mr. Melnick.
Maybe only 3% Adam.
5.25mm 6% commission 315k
ok let’s say 5% commission and co broke so 131k
Spring for the digital camera and maybe even a website to market this property. Cheapskate.
…and which one did Sarah Palin shoot first??? SnarkSlope
Dave, your post at 1:29 was the funniest thing I’ve seen here in ages. Personally, I would have no idea what it’s like to feel like an idiot on Brownstoner 🙂
As for the listing. Why on earth do people cheap out like this on brokers? Especially when trying to move a $5MM+ property in this environment? And would you buy Brooklyn property from a firm whose motto is, “the only company to exclusively sell and lease Real Estate in Tribeca.”?
So, a lesbian, a rabbi and a moose walk into a bar…
And there’s obviously nothing more than speculation to write about the listing given how bad it is so don’t all jump on me for off topic stuff. I sent Tabak an email asking where the photos & floorplan was.
I put it up there to see who would bite. You could have come up with something more creative. But, alas; just like I pointed out on the other thread, the jokes here are getting as lame as all the new SNL stuff.
