  1. southslope, those doors are gorgeous.

    Is it, in fact, across the street from “government housing”, which we understand may be some euphemism for one of the Clinton Hill co-op buildings? Just curious…trying to determine if this is the same place that was listed three months ago for 1.2.

  2. Thanks Nokilissa. You just proved my point even further!

    Anyone making 2 million per year and having to “tighten their belt” are real scum of the earth wasteful mother f*ckers if you ask me.
    Poor darlings…

    BTW, to the ignorant person claiming that 7,000 inventory is high, how long have you lived in NYC? a year??

    7,000 is a HISTORIC LOW for inventory here in this city of 8.25 million people. Places like Miami (roughly 1/10th the size has 200,000 homes on the market).

    Sure, 7,000 is up from 5,000 in 2005, but you really show how ignorant you are when it comes to real estate by saying that number as if it’s BAD!!

  3. Contrary to some opinions, good houses do seem to being going into contract. Over the past few months houses on Adelphi, Dean Street (Hoyt and Nevins), Montgomery Place, 2nd Street, 4th Street, 7th Street, Bergen and Lincoln Place have all gone into contract or sold. Some required price cuts after the brokers and sellers finally faced reality (2nd Street and Mongomery). The Bergen and 4th Street houses accepted offers after one week.

    Houses that need exstensive renovations and/or obscenely priced will languish.

  4. As the economy falters, MORE people will be interested in Brooklyn. Not less.

    Manhattan prices are STILL rising. People are more than ever starting to look at Brooklyn as a cheaper alternative and they know that prices will go back up eventually, as they always do.

    I have no idea what houses you are looking at, but we were just OUTBID on a home two weeks ago in Park Slope. And we bid full asking price….

    So I guess we are seeing different things than some of you naysayers are…

  5. Uh, actually 1:55, people making over 350K are in the top 1%.

    Anyone making 2M a year is considerably higher up on this income scale than that. Top .001%?

    I don’t know. But I do know this is an often misunderstood thing. families (FAMILIES, not just individuals) making 77K a year, for example, can barely believe they’re actually in the top 15 or 20%.

  6. Re: Fort Greene

    1:42, I think the original front house is semi-detached. Although you’re right, the very long extension would probably be the equivalent of a fully detached house from an energy perspective.

    I don’t think termites are a particular worry unless there’s past evidence. A good inspection will sort that out. Given that the mechanicals are updated (or so says the listing), I’d imagine that the seller has kept the property in good condition and there’s no issue.

  7. “Manhattan inventory hit 7000 units today. Do you know what that means?”

    Yes, it means that it’s about 1/4th of what it was pre 2001.

    You posted the exact same comment last week, btw. Have it saved so you can post it every week??
