  1. As a fellow socialist told me after the election: “If only we were getting the socialist that the right wing accuses us of voting for…”

    As for data, I would check the Case-Schiller Index for NYC from 1997 to present against household incomes for the same period. I get a 35% real drop that’s yet to come as the market shakes out excess inventory. Though brownstones in popular neighborhoods, I’m guessing, will probably fall less than that. ‘Cause they’re all pretty-like.

  2. “Just the beginning. Where are the handful of morons who have no data to support a theory that brownstones will fall 50, 60, 70%” ~dibs

    dibs a reminder:
    1. Your POS property is in the ghetto. Brownstone bk does not include your s*hithole.
    2. You’re at the highest risk in all of nyc mr. Ghetto speculator.
    3. Have a great weekend!
    4. Oh its just the beginning 😉
