Hey Dan, is there a link to the new FSBO on Maple? I have a friend who’s looking in the nabe.
“FYI to the PLG lookers, the $975 on Maple St. is in contract–not still sitting on the market. However, there’s a new reno of a limestone without the extension (smaller than some) just ready to view, FSBO (flipper), at $975.”
And, as someone mentioned, there’s also the fully renovated 4-story brownstone on Rutland in PLG:

(scroll down about 1/2 way)
margaret–what is the link on the Maple FSBO? I thought all Maple street limestones had at least the first floor kitchen extension, no? As for the other one at 975, I heard it went for under 950. I need to buy soon, so I can’t wait for any crash. But I agree with the person who thinks prices are already going down. I’m being very careful to not pay full asking and to be sure I get a decent deal, since I’m sure prices in the areas I can afford will decline soon. I liked the Maple street house, but there was no way I was going to pay 975 for it! I probably won’t want this one either, unless the renovation is much better. I know its risky, but in a year I’ll be glad I held out for a better deal.
Guy who’s waiting to buy…Are you figuring in your current rent plus the possibility of interest rates going up? Don’t mean to be negative, but I’m just curious.

“I had just bought a house and found it worth at least 15% less in a few months.”
When did you buy, ’89-’91?
We at this computer would buy the Sunset Park house at/near this $$…..
Sunset park is a good play right now
6:34, my 100K figure was based on a 10% reduction of a house currently going for 1M. For the Slope house, I’d expect a savings of closer to 290K, but I still wouldn’t be able to afford it. I’ll grant you that price decreases in prime slope will be lower (percentage-wise) than those in PLG, Sunset Park, BS, etc. But there will be decreases. Actually I’d expect more than 10% decreases in PLG etc., but we’ll see.
What’s up with the music when you try to see the Sunset Park slide show? Gives new meaning to the term “real estate porn”.
