  1. I absolutely hate their website – for all the houses they have listed. Microscopic pictures with grainy details, no full-screen. Seriously, they look like they were taken with a camera phone. As much as Corcoran gets on my nerves, I think they have the best website of them all.

  2. halvewit— as Minard indicated they don’t know how to price hence the $1mil chop and now they have no momentum. the market is about momentum.. the pictures and the presentation could be better

  3. Two inexperienced brokers who have no clue of the Park Slope market. Why do sellers— in this case executors hire brokers who have never sold houses in Brooklyn?

    • why would it matter if the brokers never sold a house in Brooklyn?
      I would think that buyers in a tight market do their due diligence and go see every house they deem worthy.
