Overpricing Not Working in Carroll Gardens

“What the heck is going on in Carroll Gardens?” we asked back in January. Our question was prompted by a rash of ridiculously priced townhouses in the area. Well, since then, three out of the four houses we looked at that day woke up to reality and one is still clinging to its delusions of grandeur. 329 President has since been reduced by $605,000 and 78 3rd Place by $795,000; 44 1st Place, the nicest and biggest of the batch, appears to be off the market.

OK,
There are too many comments to read.
Carroll Gardens doesnt have a grocery store.
I don’t hate homeowners unless they as dumb as you, 9:34. Nor do I insult them except when they are as pigheaded, small-minded,shallow or money-grubbing as you. It doesn’t bother me to pay rent to live in a decent place- I happen to have a great landlord. I respect their choices and they appreciate good tenants. Owning a home os not for everyone but if you don’t understand that, it’s your problem, not mine.
Obviously you don’t have the mental capacity to understand the real estate system in its entirety or much about society. Being a homeowner doesn’t do anything for you but make you a homeowner. You aren’t Einstein (you do know who that is, right?), You aren’t Picasso, you aren’t anyone except a guy with a bunch of bricks- some of them in your skull.You only proved my point since calling me fucknuckle was your best shot. Hint: that probably impressed them in 4th grade- doesn’t work with adults.
11:43- if you don’t get it, well, you just don’t get it. so they’re wealthy? Bush ruined the country and Spitzer just blew his career and marriage out the window. Or were you too dumb to get my point? Why am I asking- of course you are.
Yes, Spitzer, Bush and Koch do all own.
You know what else they have in common??
They are all wealthy.
No wealthy person I’ve ever met rents.
Period. End of story.
Ed Koch rents.
Bubblehead.
9:07, if you hate home owners so much, why do you pay his/her mortgage with your rent.
You are a fucknuckle.
sex and real estate are inseperable.
God invented eal estate for sex, or vice versa.
We humans are like those birds who make nests in order to attract the lady birds in order to have sex.
sex = real estate.
that, and viagra, may account for the current bubble.
“Can we just all agree that renters are the scum of the earth and owners have golden ten foot cocks?”
Why?- it’s the other way around. Seriously- what’s the big deal if someone would rather rent than buy? What are you people? House Nazis? Jeesh. I rent and I am happy to do so. It’s my choice. I like brownstoner because I love old houses- in case some of you haven’t noticed there is a forum about old houses and fixing them up on the site too. So tough sh*t if I rent and read brownstoner. If all house owners are like you people I can only wait for the renters concentration camps you seem to be plotting to build. If owning a house is the only reason to respect someone, you have some pretty damn shallow lives. Spitzer owns. So does Bush.
I thought Park Slope kept the world goin ’round.
