Slim pickings this week! Maybe everyone’s holding off until the new year. Anything interesting that we missed?

  1. compare the park place @ 899K – in all of its glory, including

    Details in tack from original state
    shatters, a victoria tubs!!!! oh my too Faboulous!!!

    with this piece of absolute garbage on mcgolrick park in greenpoint, REDUCED from 1.1 million for all 12′ x 35′ of it.

    oh, MAN, it’s not a tear-down, as a building 12′ in width, book-ended by 12′ buildings, isn’t worth a fart.

    everybody is nuts.

  2. I’m getting to hate the brownstone market. This entrenched idea of sellers that they have the god-given right to make a bundle, no matter how recently they bought, is doing nothing but taking all the liquidity and choice out of the market. If brokers are crying over vanished liquidity then they should stop telling the sellers that they can hold out for 10% more than what a similar place sold for last season, and instead be realistic. Do you want to sell a house, or are you just fishing for payday?

  3. The Park Place house is asking $899,000. The block is (arguably) among the most archiecturally attractive and intact townhouse blocks in the area, rivalling Dean Street in its range of style and level of detail. Furthermore the location is very good, considering it’s proximity to Nostrand Avenue, the subway and Brower Park. While the price seems high to me (who bought four years ago one block away for considerably less), it seems to reflect the market based on comparables. If the level of detail in the house matches the expectations inspired by the photos, it’s a remarkable house. I wonder about the condition of the mechanicals, and the kitchen, which is not shown. I will try to make the open house on Sunday,

  4. 836 prospect is a development play, this is being marketed as a teardown, regardless of what they say about move in ready, etc. We all know that no one is going to pay $1.75M to live in 3200 sq. ft in crown heights.

    This was listed on a commercial RE site as being a development site with 18,000 sq ft and cited numbers for the profit if the property was torn down and condos built.

    Hopefully the recent landmarking on Lefferts will scare away any developers with this plan.
