House of the Day: 489 16th Street
It’s not really our cup of tea, but someone’s obviously put a lot of effort into renovating this three-story brick townhouse at 489 16th Street in Windsor Terrace. The look is a little too “new condo trapped inside old house” for us. That said, everything’s new and the location, just a block from the park,…

It’s not really our cup of tea, but someone’s obviously put a lot of effort into renovating this three-story brick townhouse at 489 16th Street in Windsor Terrace. The look is a little too “new condo trapped inside old house” for us. That said, everything’s new and the location, just a block from the park, is very nice. The house was purchased for $925,000 back in 2005 and is now asking $1,595,000. What do you make of it?

Good one brickoven. You’re on fire today.
And by fire, I mean an idiot.
LOL…not to encourage brickoven in the slightest but, that actually that does sound like Madoff’s M.O.!
Let me talk to him, CW. When we spoke last week, he said he wasn’t accepting any new clients as he’s been absolutely swamped.
He goes by referral only, so I’ll let you know what he says. He usually deals with much larger accounts than mine, but since one of his really great long standing clients is a friend of mine, I got in with him.
11217 uses Madoff securities cwb.
As reported above the recent sales comps have already proven you wrong.
I don’t care what it “ought” to go for; I am saying, outright, it will not sell at all in the next year for over a million, period. Prove me wrong.
Not to mention that only 6 in 10 Americans even have anything invested in the stock market in the first place.
To make a sweeping generalization as MM did (the wealth of the older generation has been decimated by stock market crash) when 40% don’t even have a financial stake in the stock market just goes to show how utterly out of touch with reality she is.
I agree totally Denton. My father is similar to you…down about 15% last year and up a bit this year so far.
You would really have to be a financial idiot to have been “decimated” by this.
Or really greedy.
Hey 11217 do you mind if I ask who your advisor is? We went to a guy in the slope but aren’t super thrilled and are thinking of switching.
11217 youre financial advisor is a liar then avg losses are much greater. He must have been giving numbers for this year. Most people are down about 40 percent
