Did anyone discussing the WT house actually see it in person?
8:00 – not a broker, and not the owner of any of the houses discussed on this thread. doesn’t change the facts though.
7:52 not broker or owner-are you? Just like to have the facts straight.
7:34 – broker or owner?
OK, so president st. house is in 282 – my bad. we saw it a while ago. even without the ps 321 premium, it’s still a nice, renovated brick house in park slope, for less than an ugly, smaller, renovated house in windsor terrace.
keep dreaming.
7:20, let us agree to disagree. This is essentially a 2 BR, 1 bathroom house with a small study, and a small rec room downstairs, on an ok block in Windsor Terrace. yes, it is nicely done inside. Yes, it is 2 1/2 blocks from the park.
But still. It’s in Windsor Terrace. The only subway within striking distance is the F, which along with its other issues, often skips both the 15th St. and Fort Hamilton stops. The houses on either side (and on much of the rest of that block) are even less attractive on the outside than this one. Maybe someone would pay $1.2 million for it, though we would not. Again, for that amount, there are still some nice renovated frame houses of this size in the slope, albeit they are down around 5th Avenue.
But – more to the point – tell me how those sellers are going to settle for $1.1 or $1.2 million when they think they should get $1.45? This smells to me like people who don’t really need to move any time soon – and my prediction is this sits on the market a few months and then they pull it in hopes of better luck next fall/spring. Waste of time all around.
On the other hand, if I’m wrong, then I imagine we’ll see a stampede of people looking to unload their houses in WT since this would indicate prices are at a previously unseen peak and are well above where they were at this time last year. Does that really seem likely?
6:27 If you’re not smart enough to check your facts -President Street house is in P.S.282 school district, not 321 (wrong side of President Street) you have no credibility in commenting on the price of the Windsor Terrace house. You obviously didn’t do your research there either. So you are not qualified to justify prices. Do your homework.
Once you get into the $1.4 million price range as a seller the competition is more tough, it’s true 6:27. But I would think the WT house could get $1.2 million. No house in any of the neighborhoods close to the park that is renovated is under a million. Just the fixers uppers.
6:10, we are on Maple II and after getting flooded (less than one inch of water going halfway across the floor) a couple times during those insane rains last year, we got a new hatch over the back stairs and had the grade at the back of the house corrected with a new drain installed on the new cement. Done. Dry basement ever since including yesterday during the deluge.
995K should do it for the WT one. cute inside, but small and ugly outside, block is nothing special. fail to see what would justify the price they are asking, especially in this market. there’s a house on president st. in PS, in 321 school district, that’s been sitting at $1.4 for a couple months now, and is nicely renovated inside and bigger. if that can’t move at that price, how on earth would this move at $1.5? people are delusional and the broker is just irresponsible wasting everyone’s time trying to flog something so overpriced.
