Huh. I am totally confused. I could have sworn that three months ago either this or another similar home on Washington in Clinton Hill was listed on ahrlty.com for 1.2 mil. In fact, we spoke with an AH agent about that listing and were told, “well, the parlor floor is a stunner, but, well, there may be an issue with what the family wants to do ultimately, but if you’re seriously interested….” They made mention of “government housing” across the street from that listing. Is this the same place, I wonder?
This might not be the same house, but a half million dollar difference? WTF?
1:28 — Anyone who says “Stuff has been selling like hotcakes in the sub 3 million dollar brownstone market” is clearly a broker, or otherwise has a stake in propping up the market.
These are not overpriced. Get over it. I would not be surprised if Carroll Gardens and Prospect heights properties get multiple bids. And I am not a broker. Quality properties sell. Anyone who can afford 2.2 million is not affected by the economy. These are not 450000 Toll Bros. houses in a surburb of Columbus Ohio nor are they overpriced condos on 4th Ave.
Maybe there should be a segment ‘Cheap open house picks’
I’m looking in Bed Sty, Sunset Park, Bay Ridgeand Crown Heights and would love to see open house picks in those area for around 800K. There are plenty.
This site is geared for the rich.
@1:25Pm Brownstoner definitely finds the most rediculously priced lsitings to generate a lot of discussion and no that he has dropped the 6 months follow up to HOTD, there is really no point to this.
I’m just curious 1:29…what exactly has changed with all the people who, 6 months ago were looking at 2 million plus properties that you now think they’ve disappeared or somehow lost all their money??
I’d say 10% of these buyers were Wall Streeters, so fine…maybe they are feeling the pinch, but I doubt it. They are saying bonuses this year will be 11% less than last. That’s still a SHITLOAD of money.
People are still working, getting paid, raising families. Manhattan prices are still shooting up and MANY people are looking at Brooklyn even more these days hoping to get more space before the next run up in prices.
Rents are also expected to skyrocket this fall. I don’t understand why you think all the sudden things have changed just because CNN says so.
Personally my finances are better than they’ve been in 3 years. I’m sure there are people struggling, but they really aren’t the people spending 2 million on a house. 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.
This is BROWNSTONER.COM. We talk about brownstones here. Bronwstones cost a lost of money.
If you want to talk about properties of less than a million, I suggest, akronrealestate.com
Whatever happened to the 6-month look back? Is it because very few houses are actually closing within 6 months anymore?
They all have well done yards/gardens (except for the first, which we can’t see). makes a more copmplete package to sell.
brownstoner seems very disconnected from the present economy
