  1. Is it too much to ask for Brownstoner to include intra-site links to featured properties? 13 Cranberry Street has been featured not once but TWICE as House-of-the-Day in the past 8 months. The asking price is (was?) an interesting counterpoint to the rental price.

  2. Reference to the twhat’s comment a few days back about some weird scenario where someone takes equity out of their house to open up a Thai restaurant in Clinton Hill.

    It was just a subtle reminder to the twhat that the war is over, he lost and he needs to get out.

    Sorry Dave, but you can’t put them aside, they exist now and always…renting and owning both have benefits and risks – one is not automatically better or worse.

  4. “Bitter, What, very bitter!! LMMFAO”

    Bitter about what Dave? How is your Hedge Fund going? Taking it you the ass, huh?

    “What knucklehead would pay 35K to live on Henry St. at 2nd Place?”

    davegetsfuckedinassinbedstuy and Sfit Champion. The day of this Mutant Real Estate Bubble is coming to a end. There is no argument for buying anything now, except emotional Asshats.

    The What

    Someday this war is gonna end…

  5. Lehman is tanking, looking to unload Neuberger. Ford, GM and Chrysler will be looking for bailouts over the next year. Fannie and Freddie is just the beginning. This is going to get much worse.
