House of the Day: 212 8th Avenue
Another classic Park Slope beauty, 212 8th Avenue just hit the market this week. It’s everything you would expect, from the parquet to the mahogany to the pier mirrors. It will be very interesting to see how the price tag of $2,995,000 flies in this market. It wouldn’t have cut the mustard a few months…

It will be very interesting to see how the price tag of $2,995,000 flies in this market. It wouldn’t have cut the mustard a few months ago, we suspect, but psychology is definitely a little better right now so we shall see. We bet it’ll go for more like $2,750,000 but we shall see.

“hmmm, sounds like both 11217 and fsrq are in the finance industry”
hmmm…sounds like you have the reasoning skills of a toddler.
As many people here know, I work in a field not remotely associated with the world of finance.
“Good for them, but what about ordinary working families who pay taxes that get used to fund TARP?”
Why don’t you take a look at the percentage of total income taxes paid by the top 33% of earners (i.e. including all your “wall street crooks” and presumably excluding all your “ordinary working families”) and then get back to us.
Yeah, I object to the everyone-who-is-in-finance-is-a-crook attitude too . . .
But, anyway, what cls2000 writes is what’s important here. “The owner wanted to let the buyer make those design choices for themeselves.” It should be priced that way then. Maybe they feel it is? Maybe this would be a $3.5 million house if all “design choices” were completed? Um, I don’t know. Can’t even read the floor plan to venture a guess.
“Everybody here thought I was nuts. ”
Not me, dibs:-)
Dandel, I am not a wall street crook and am living where I like. And the seller is not being priced out of anywhere, they are choosing to sell.
hmmm, sounds like both 11217 and fsrq are in the finance industry. Figures.
11217 – LOL
Wanna go get a 6-pack at the local Duane Reade and put back a few?
We unite FSRG!

dandel – this is (mostly) a RE blog, and this post is about a house on 8th Avenue, so Ill just address you like this.
1. Everyone who is ‘rich’ isnt a crook – even many many rich people who work/worked in Finance.
2. Life is unfair – get used to it.
Dandel:
You know you lose a little bit of credibility when you use the expression “Wall Street crooks” in every one of your posts.
I know this will be shocking to you…but the vast majority of Wall Streeters are not crooks.
