    We were given a TCO. *Supposedly* we are one signature away from a permanent C of O. I’m holding my breath.

    Do you know what the unit closed at? Haven’t heard the official number yet, but rumour has it somewhere around $920K.

  2. The Amity St Average Reader Appraisal was $2,850,878
    but that was because the widget wouldn’t take anything lower than $2.44MM – widget’s got a built in range something like -37% to +12% ask.

    There is some charity going on here. I grew up in Gravesend, and about half the homes in the Eastern part of the nabe are old Italian retirees. These are my folks’ friends.

    One day, Mr. and Mrs. Romano reside in their run-down home, living off his pension as a dye-maker. Next thing you know, they’ve struck it rich. Hello Florida, here they come!

  4. DIBS – I figured… wouldn’t this money be better spent investing in their local Schul and supporting their communities’ amazing charitable organizations? Or is paying CRAZY amounts for real estate (having no real positive impact) the best community value they could come up with? Makes me a little sad.
