Eh Asshead, most of the “stories” are coming in from mainstream media (Bloomberg, WSJ, NY Times, etc.). What do you mean by ” And in neither case do you bring any facts/insight about the sources, quality of reporting, etc. of any of the material you cut & paste”.
Why don’t you parse your own information and come up with you own conclusions instead of jumping into the “Metoo Asshat Group”
“Amazing that a few can be so oblivious to whats going on in nyc. Truly astounding. Like I’ve said, some require a brick to the head to wake up.”
Cornerbodega I invite you to join the Bear Mafia! Just Chill 2009 is going to be very painful for the Assheads….
” think these guys, dibs/sebb et al are just f*cked up psychologically.”
No they are retards…
The What (Obama will save us, just you wait and see..)
Someday these retards are gonna end…
so Pete u r saying home prices in CG have fallen less than 25-30% peak to right now or more than 25-30%?? if u r saying CG has fallen less than 25-30% from its peak(whatever month u wish to choose) u r making my point…until i saw a few recent sales(including President St) i believed mkt was off 25-30% from highs(looking at my own house/getting an appraisal and attending 3-4 open houses 2 weeks ago where asking prices have fallen roughly 25% from original offers) i believe going forward that CG/CH houses will be much more resilient than Manhattan/nat’l avg simply on account of limited supply
Amazing that a few can be so oblivious to whats going on in nyc. Truly astounding. Like I’ve said, some require a brick to the head to wake up. Give these idiots about 4-6 more months to fully admit what 98% of new yorkers already know whats coming. I think these guys, dibs/sebb et al are just f*cked up psychologically. They refuse to accept the inevitable. The biggest losers are the ones who cling onto denial esp in the face of certainty. People like dibs/11217/sebb obviously have vested interests in property valuation. Since thats the case, IT SUCKS TO BE YOU, BAGHOLDERS!
“CG houses r currently 25-30% off their highs of Spring ’06-just like national mkt ” –
what are crock of b.s. Buyers would be very happy if only true.
Show some evidence instead of talking nonsense. Prices here didn’t even peak until end of 2007.
bb, please provide tweezers and a magnifying glass, thank you.
All you naysayers suck on this.
Parkedslope,
You mean like cutting and pasting an article suggesting that lower sales at Ford means we are in another Depression, and then 10 minutes later saying Ford, Fix or Repair Daily.
Yeah, I see your point.

My second hand Volvo has 145,000 on the clock and shows no signs of stopping. I think it was really a Volvo when it was made and not a Ford.
I can’t understand why anyone would buy a new car. They lose 25% of their value the instant you drive them off the car dealers’ lot.
