Open House Picks: Six Months Later
Because of the Christmas Holiday six months ago, there’s no Open House Picks: Six Months Later post today. Any recent sales that have caught your eye?

Someone please buy this sad little house and fix the porch, it hurts me to see it looking so sad.

funkymonkey you can go to an auction or you can buy a foreclosed property like normal thorugh a broker that deals in them. They’re in the regular realtor.com listings.
416 Pacific is a tough price given that 398 Pacific (or is it 400) is also at the same price and shows much nicer evne though it too needs work — plus there is the possibility of negotiating in the extra lot.
Also across the street from 416 there is at least one house in far better condition asking $2.475. (I think there is another in that range as well, but I can’t find the other listing right now). Personally I think that is also 20-30% over where it should be.
Given that 416 has to be $800K of renovations (minimum), it would seem that it should be asking $1.6 at most and then go down from there.
The exclamation point regarding 416 Pacific is included b/c it appears the place has been gutted; no pipes, electrical wiring, some broken windows (pigeons now live in there)
anyone know anything about the foreclosed house being sold by Brown Harris Stevens at 416 Pacific St.? They’re still listing it for $1,995,000!
No sales of interest, but as for contracts signed I heard that 100 Nevins (Open House pick on Oct 31 and followed up on on May 1) was in contract for close to 1.2M, or 1/3 off its ask this spring. It’s an unusual layout IIRC, so I am not sure if that price level will be followed in the rest of the neighborhood.
134 South Oxford sold for $ 1.1 million

how does that foreclosure thing work? does it go to auction? or can you just get it for this asking price? does it have to be all cash?
