I don’t think you are foolish to believe that stoep2conquer.
But you are foolish to believe that one of the greatest cities on the planet would be inexpensive.
Keep in mind that NYC isn’t even one of the most expensive cities in the world….I believe it ranks 22nd.
Buy a house in Sunset Park for about a million bucks. While the neighborhood’s services are still lacking, its the best value in Brooklyn.
Homecrest – WTF????
$3M??
There better be gold in the basement.
I am thiiis close to giving up on trying to buy a home in NYC. How can people find such value in these houses? It’s crazy. 5.4M for a townhouse? 1.8M for Gravesend?!
I guess I was foolish to think there would be some reasonable deals to be made after the credit crisis an bank collapse. *sigh*
He’s repeating the Warren Street house because this is the weekly “last week’s biggest sales” post and … it was last week’s biggest sale.
Same thing happened with the Jennifer Connely mansion.
Folks;
For those who don’t venture past Brownstone Brooklyn: Homecrest is the area between Gravesend and Sheepshead Bay. There is a growing Sephardic population in this area,and that is most likely who purchased the house shown. They pay top dollar for these types of homes.
lol that house is a 3 million dollar house? that’s it. im selling my 40 ounced to death kidney for 500 gazillion trillion dollars. dont you tell me it’s worth any less!
*rob*
He’s just trying to aggravate you, Miss Muffett. I’m sure the “Last week’s Biggest Sales” post is ALWAYS very aggravation to you, BHO, & cornerbodega.
