The Morning After: Open House Data Dump
Since we didn’t make any open house picks last week, we’ll just open the floor to the readers who stayed in town this weekend. Anything of interest?

I saw the house at 163 Bond – the interior is far from being a “wreck” but it isn’t the biggest house.
I looked at docs for Bergen on NYC Acris — — My guess is divorce arrangement where husband sold out his part to wife. Both names purchased prop in 1997.
Can only wonder if when sales stats are done for 2006 – will this show up?
To Anon@ 11.11 AM. 12 Wyckoff appears to be a related party transaction, i.e., it was not an arms-lenght sale. 141 Bergen appears to be something similar except that it might be a foreclosure or deed-in-lieu of foreclosure tranfer. In other words, neither of these 2 properties would have been brokered.
No way a house on the 100 block of Bergen went for $860k. Put a 1, in front of the 860 and it would be closer to market.
The house on Bond is interesting. Yes, it’s a two bedroom. And it seems like the only way to add another is to blow out the back wall and putin a new master br/suite. It’s a fab block though as I live 1 block away. The broker said there was an offer already. Which means we’ll be seeing more open houses all the way into the new year. 1.2? seems like a decent price.
I saw these 2 sales (Boerum/Cobble Hill) from Propshark which seemed very cheap to me. Certainly do not remember ever seeing either of them listed for sale.
Anyone have any clue who was realtor?

Is that house only a two bedroom, as advertised, or could you make three?…I was walking on 8th Ave. & 11th St. and I saw a nice building, nothing special, being worked on. I saw a Corcoran “for sale” sign on it and that there was an open house later in the day. I went home to see how much it was and was blown away that they were asking 2.2 for it. I didn’t go look at it on principal but now I’m curious if anyone else saw it. The agents who are listing it have a number of properties for sale around there and it seems to me they are pricing things very aggressively.
I agree with Crouchback that at the price point there is likely a couple ready to move in and take the house — it’s not very big and not my preferred layout, but I am sure there are others who would be happy to take it as is.
163 Bond Street. I won’t comment much on the interior condition (one person’s concept of move-in condition is another person’s vision of wreck). However, the price point ($1250000), given the north-south sized lot (100 ft) on an east-west block (typically 75-80 feet), is, although probably at the upper end of the range for that sized building, very interesting.
