Crown Heights Proud, you my friend, are out of touch. Fort Greene is a total catch and the 1.9 is just a starting offer to get the ball rolling. I’m guessing they get at least 2.1
Re: Fort Greene house. anon 12:37. It has some nice detail, and great location, but for 1 million, 9 hundred thousand dollars (!!!!) I don’t want to have to convert it into something else in order for it to work for me. If it was a duplex or even triplex with rentals, you might have a point, but now, in this market, I don’t think so. But as a 4 family – doubtful, from my position as a watcher, not a buyer in the market.
there are 2 1-bdrm open houses at 121 pacific this sunday that i think are worth seeing. no, i’m not the seller (or the real estate agent) but i did just buy a 1 bdrm in the building. i stuck my head in both the places on the market (i think listed by corcoran) last weekend, and liked both a lot. both are lofts, with lots of potential.
the house on dean will need a conversion and seems way over priced. also across from school yard and extrememly noising during the day and on street parking hard
Re: prices, if anything we’ve been emphasizing the under-$1 million houses in recent months to the exclusion of ones like these. These one’s just grabbed us this week.
“As someone who works in the film business…can’t tell you how disgusted I am by the way these brokers are using “celebrities” to market the neighborhood….It’s abominable.”
thou doth protest too much.
Fort Greene is the best thing on the market is ages!
Bidding war no doubt.
Anon 12:20–Mr. B has spent at least half this summer finding less expensive properties to feature. I suggest you check the archives.
Anon 12:22, As someone who works in the film business, I can’t tell you how disgusted I am by the way these brokers are using “celebrities” to market the neighborhood. What do these people think? That if they buy in Boerum Hill, Heath Ledger will come to their house for a barbecue? Or better yet, they spot him at a local restaurant and somehow that makes them feel better about overpaying for their brownstone? So Emily Mortimer and Alessandro Nivola just moved into the hood. I defy the average person to even recognize when they see them. It’s abominable.
Only one of these houses are in Park Slope.. If my calculations are correct, you paid a little over $1mil.. Two years ago, prime park Slope house were fetching is the very high $1mil. to low $2mil. range. Clearly you are not in “prime Park Slope or possibly you stole the house You could not getting anything just above $1mil. Something is either wrong with your math or your definition of prime is not in the majority
