I don’t want to engage in the “I didn’t say that”, but….I didn’t, 4:16. I log into this site, with the little typekey logo. If it doesn’t have that logo, I am not the author.
For what it’s worth, I would never say anything so stupid. Wash Park Ave, anywhere in Fort Greene, for that matter, is a great neighborhood, and if I could have afforded it, even back then, I would have moved there years and years ago. I’m not the one slamming your hood.
Hey anon 1;30 I think anon 4;00 has a valid point. Most women under 30 have some kind of landscaping work done. For women under 25 it’s seems to be mandatory with most opting for some sort of severe topiary> manicured putting green type lawns. I for one find the 1970’s style to be most pleasant. I like my nature unspoiled. And oh yeah the F.G. house will sell for 25k less than asking so the buyer can tell his friends he didn’t pay full price.
Just noticed the google map shows 181 Washington Park not 191. The house is exactly mid block between Dekalb and Willoughby, not at the corner of Willoghby as shown.
The Washington Park house seems to me to be a mixed bag. It is in a good location but is split into four units, none of which seem to have new kitchens. It would take a good amount of work and money to turn it into a one or two family house, which is definitely a risk in an uncertain real estate market.
Ah, yes. Crown Heights is in the house. Perhaps, CHP, you haven’t been to the park lately… it’s changed since 1977. That said, I can’t imagine why people are so divided on the park. There are way more muggings and murders in Prospect Park and loads of shady dealings go on in Central Park and people still covet apartments and houses there… I just don’t get the bad p.r.
anon at 3:18…10 South Oxford sold for 2.35…isn’t in shark yet as it hasn’t closed….there’s another one somewhere too either oxford/portland that went for 2.3-2.4…
To anon at 1:30:
Methinks you have not seen a vagina in a while!
The Wall St. bonus argument didn’t do much this year, and it won’t again (and remember, bonuses are just projected right now, not promised, and as far as real estate goes, they are MILES away on the horizon). There are few buyers left…even these hedge fund guys don’t need 6 brownstones a piece.
For the broker that posted about current owners having to put their money back into housing – not quite. You are subject to capital gains AND NYS and NYC income taxes on anything above your exclusion whether you roll the entire amount into a new property or not.
