  1. no, we won’t see who is right. because i’ll still be arguing that current closings are relevant to the current market…and you’ll still be shifting your argument to whatever makes you feel right. maybe it makes you feel better to assume these people with lots of cash are terrible scumsuckers who assumed that the system would go on forever and will thus have their comeuppance. far more likely is that they, just like you, didn’t really question the system which provided them with their livelihood and instead made the most of it for as long as they could. far more likely is that they are equally, if not more, capable as you to see whatever writing there is on the wall and act in a way that protects their wealth. far more likely is that their position when things stabilize will remain, as it is apparently now, materially superior to yours.

  2. Biff: No. We are protected from ourselves, you have to be an Accredited Investor 🙂

    11217: Or you could stake out the store and loudly talk about what poor quality the pants are (or even all pants in general and how they will soon be on sale) .

    11233: “vitriolic” what a great word!

  3. NorthHeights:

    You have to actually look at the deed (click on the IMG button) and go to the Real Property Transfer Report. It’s usually located at the back of the document after the actual sale contract. Under the Sale Information section, you’ll see the contract date and the deed date.

  4. 11233 – Miss Muffett suffers from OCD – a form of anxiety that is soothed by seemingly endless and uncontrollable repetition. This is why she feels the need to report every day, several times a day, that she believes she is in a good position in regards to the real estate market. This blog has basically become a repository for people slowly being driven insane by their obsession with NYC real estate.

  5. “it’s not all me ”

    – Miss Muff it

    Yes, it is.

    Stop posting your inane dribble. If you want to buy a house, buy one. If you want to wait. Wait. No one cares what you are doing or why.

    Your insistance that we all need to read about you and your never ending search is boring and an indication of some serious mental health issues. Seek professional help.

  6. “We’ll see who is right soon enough, like I said. Maybe Brownstoner should set up an off shore gambling outfit so we can all place bets on these predictions.”

    Why does it have to be offshore? Seems like such betting can be done via credit default swaps, which are perfectly legal.

  7. “believe me, there are lots of first-time buyers who are relieved that things are calming down”

    Yes, because so many first time buyers are debating between 2.1 and 2.8 million dollar homes…
