of course Pigeon, google maps are not guaranteed recent photos. They don’t update them just because a construction site is now complete or someone just replaced the windows.
Miss Muffett,
A week or so ago, I looked up the Bergan Street house using google maps, as the house seems reasonably priced. My surprise that the realtor’s photo of the exterior was misrepresentational was only moderate, as we all know that misrepresentation is a large part or what realtor’s do.
As mentioned by BST, above, google maps is a great way to get a sketch of a property’s exterior and a sketch of the block on which the property sits.
I live on this block, so I’m totally biased anyway. Just ignore me:).
ALL overpriced.
Bergen Street is the Size of a button.
Prospect Avenue is chopped up like nobodies business. And realtors, STOP labeling rooms without windows bedrooms.
Bay Ridge House is cute, but chop it by 10%. It does have a coveted garage which on this block is needed.
Crown Street only has a few pics but looks nice and overpriced the most.
Nice, I wrote that about this place last time?! No forgiveness needed IJ!!!
We’re 200K below May 20 and I’ll venture to say another 200K to go before it’s taken seriously.
Perhaps I should have said poor “soul” instead of “fool”….I must have had an extra dose of bitter buyer’s rage that day. So forgive me!!
I don’t mind low stoops in the slightest, but you cannot trust Realtor photos. The street view of the bldg itself looks just dismal. Bergen is fine in certain spots, but noisy as all get out. The 2-way bus and truck traffic I believe would be substantial.
That just doesn’t scream 1.6 million dollar home to me. Thumbs down.
Something made the Google Street View car start driving really fast in front of the Crown Heights house…
The Bay Ridge house needs a 50% price cut. I just found out a nasty woman lives nearby.
MfN, I like you. Forgive me.
[Sic]
Let’s all say this togethe:. The market is beyond inflated. This property listing is our jump the shark momrmt mu friends. A desperate grab for cash by A&H to cash in at the tail end of one spectacular bubble. Just pathetic. Pity the sellers, being sold a pile of dog crap by A&H. Of pity the poor fool so pays even close to asking and loses their shirt.
