Washington Park listing is a 4-family. Facade needs work. Houses on both sides of it are in crummy shape. BP should take a look at the other comps on Wash Park that are not selling, and realize that the one that sold last year at $3 million was a 1-family, museum-quality perfect restoration and renovation.
As for the walk to DeKalb, I live on Clinton Ave (another 5 blocks east)and it’s 15 minutes tops.
Stop already…if it’s more than 10 min it says more about you than the distance. I do it everyday from a little further out in 10. If you don’t like to walk you won’t like it, but it it takes you 20 you need the exercise.
Those two Corcoran agents selling the Midwood house never learn! They have a house on Stratford that they over-priced at 1.595 and a month later, they’ve had to reduce it by 250K. Now they’re doing the same thing here. If they priced realistically from te beginning, they’d be much better off.
Talking about it ad nauseum… is well, self explanatory.
Discussing ease of transportation for each house IS talking about the house, 3:20. Subway options are a key consideration. Plus the open houses are Sunday not today. Nobody’s seen them yet.
What about the houses?
That’s a long walk to DeKalb in the winter. At least 15-20 min.
Google maps says it’s .6 miles from 166 Washington Park to the intersection of Flatbush and Dekalb (where the Q train is). If it takes 15-20 minutes to walk a mile (at normal pace), it should be about a 10-minute walk, give or take, depending on your mileage.
