  1. arsenic and lace, brownstoner schlubby renter edition.

    “in contract” still means 10% down, that is worth something given that it was a decent (livable) house. when people put their money where their mouth is, it does means something (it means its off the market for any other buyers, duh!).

    also, corcoran did not raise the price on vanderbilt. there was a broker change, i guess due diligence does not mix with lithium on the brownstoner – craigslist edition. the price action overall on this one reads that the seller is obviously delusional or playing a game of poker for one. that never usually works out well. the owner had the thing priced in meltdown at $1.65, and looks ready to throw in the towel. if i liked the nabe, i would be circling right now like a hawk on this one.

    what surprises me is that the crap moved on 15th and hancock sts. that says more to me than anything else.

  2. Forgive me, as I’ve never purchased real estate before: but is it typical when a house doesn’t sell after 6 months to RAISE the price?

    oh – it’s a Corcoran broker, nevermind

  3. Oh, poor, poor stevie.

    First of all, you have them backwards. 632 3rd Street is the one which just sold for 2.15 million. It was a cheap reno which looked like a rental on the inside. Did you see the photos? No detail, no nothing.

    631 3rd Street is a totally different style of house…it’s a GRAND limestone MANSION and is probably one of the finest townhouses in Park Slope.

    Here is the HOTD from the 631…

    If you’re going to compare, you need to find similar listings.

    You just compared a volvo to a bentley, but I forgive you for not knowing the difference.

  4. Did everyone see 631 3rd street sell for $2.15mil in last week’s biggest sales earlier in the week?

    A year ago, 632 3rd street (directly across the street) and which has the same square footage (4,152) sold for $4.00mil

    BROWNSTONES HALF OFF WINS!!!

    Antidope, 11217, and invisible, suck on this!!!
