1:55, yes, I misread that. absolutely agree that my heart is not bleeding for anyone on $2 mill + income. still stand by my original point though. We have been looking to buy ourselves and watching as open house attendance has dwindled and brokers call us all the time because we are “attractive” buyers (ie have nothing to sell ourselves and a reasonable deposit). I think that only on this site does the myth persist that there are currently piles of cash-happy buyers waiting at the ready for that golden opportunity to splash out millions of dollars on a property in brownstone brooklyn. a few such – sure. but why do people on here have such difficulty accepting that the economy does have an impact on people’s decisions about buying real estate?
I think you should go start your own blog, 2:01.
You can call it…

1:46 the jobs numbers from this morning says that wall street jobs and real estate jobs were added. Only the retards are buying the B aand D numbers today and the smart people are shorting the market before people like you understand it. The gov. numbers are wrong! As far as the prices on the townhouses they are wish prices. Manhattan inventory hit 7000 units today. Do you know what that means? People who make 2 million a year live in Manhattan and when they move its to Grenwich or Greatneck. Maybe Brooklyn Heights but def not most of Brooklyn.
Hey, Bloggers
How about us looking through Craigslist and listing weekend “open houses”…then posting them on the blogger?! So that way we can have our “own open house picks”…bc these four are bit ridiculous in price…
No disrespect toward the “millionaires” here on the board:-)
Whaddya think?
Someone commented about the wood frame house being harder to heat…it looks as though this renovation was top notch…wood frame houses are MUCH EASIER to insulate thoroughly than are brownstones.
1:51…
1:41 said someone MAKING 2 million a year is struggling, not someone BUYING a 2 million dollar house…
BIG difference.
And an absurd and rather disgusting comment.
2 million a year income is top 1% of the country. Such an idiotic thing to say they are struggling.
1.40 – what a great yard. Adds considerably to the desirability of that place.
1:34 writes…”These buyers are selling their 2 bedrooms on the UWS and buying the house in Brooklyn outright, in some cases.
You all seem to have NO IDEA how much money there is out there.”
Thank you, thank you, thank you. I’ve been harping on this for months and they just don’t get it…there are tens of thousands of people in Manhatttan who, if they decide they want the brownstone lifestyle,can sell there 2 bedroom condo and pay cash for a brownstone. STILL!!!
What’s with the moron brokers who think any wood frame house must be a “farm house”? Don’t these idiots know that almost all of the cheaper houses originally built near the park, on “the Hill” etc. were wood frame? Anyone who thinks farm houses were magically laid out on a 25×100 grid is a dunce.
