2:43…why oh why do you insist on being so obnoxious?????
Love how bitter brokers who don’t want people criticizing their listings do this thing, where they paste huge long posts so they turn everyone away.
We KNOW it’s you, silly!
Just to comment on the topic way back about having to make appointments instead of a true open house. Someone said:
“I would guess that yes, it’s to weed out the tire-kickers, but sometimes those tire-kickers become buyers.”
True! WE were tire kickers when we found the house we bought. Lucky for the seller too, because they listed during a bad time of year and didn’t have any other offers but ours. Whenever we sell one day I would never never refuse to have an open house.
If a homeowner is worried about theft then take everything of value and put it in storage. That’s the solution, not skipping open houses.
i went over to 1220 8th as well and i agree that the dollhouse comment was overblown. rarely have i seen a renovation of the quality of this one… anyone else open any of the kitchen drawers? every one is groove fitted… no nails. man, you never see that kind of precision and craftsmanship these days. plus, anyone else notice that the cabinetry was all cut out of single pieces of wood to preserve the consistency of the grain. nice touch. seemed that level of attention to detail was preserved around the house as well, right down to the quality of the mechanicals in the basement. all in all, very solid. i would put it in the $1.85mm to $1.95mm range.
It was a full 20′ lot and nothing conservative about assuming there was an offer over 1.6. Even with your math, that wouldn’t make it “well over 2 mill”.
I saw it. It wasn’t for me because I haven’t the time for the project of bringing it into better condition. You didn’t even see the listing let alone the house, so I don’t know where you get off declaring it in need of 400 thousand minimum.
Sorry for the double post. I thought I had stopped the first before it went out. (Mis-spelled ‘split’).
Mister Brooklynnative, is that sarcasm I’m sensing? Doesn’t become you.
if it needs an appointment, its not an open house. Its just the normal way of showing a house.
Imagine that, Nokilissa was almost fooled.
So that’s it on 1220 8th? Anyone else see it? I’m just curious because we’re thinking about putting in an offer…
