wow, just saw the 14th st house and it is WAY overpriced. Sure it has original details throughout, but those details are in desperate need of repair/restoration. The moldings and trim have layers and layers of cracked, bumpy paint. Every inch of the plaster walls is cracked. The new kitchen is tasteful and well done. The new bath (and only owners bath) is okay (finishes will probably not please too many). And the new extension is a dismal, poorly laid out bedroom for the rental unit so it may not add much to the value of the house. I’ll be surprised if they get even close to 1.4, but if they do, I will be celebrating since I own the same exact house just a block away in much better condition! Keeps fingers crosssed!
What does overpriced mean?
Anyway, I cannot find more than 1900 square feet in the 14th St. house.
“a 3 story 16 inch house….” (gemini10)
Heehee, it’s not quite THAT small….
“Funny how we all think houses are overpriced, but some of them sell.”
And a lot of ugly people are married. Don’t mean they ain’t ugly.
14th street is listed at 781psf. 2112 square feet seems about right with the extension. still, i dont see more than $1.4 here max.
That poor, cute little Williamsburg house is totally doomed, isn’t it?
388 Stuyvesant is in contract for over a mil. Fillmore has got a new website up and all of the listings hvent been syndicated over yet. Called thier Fort Greene office where it was listed out of.
“The inventory is low.”
Trust me, I understand basic microeconomics. Built into a demand curve is the concept of ‘price elasticity.’ This is where the real estate market in this little town is truly fucked.
The price of housing stock shouldn’t be as elastic as a pair of Air Jordans in the late 80s!!
Funny how we all think houses are overpriced, but some of them sell. The fact is that there are some houses that are old listings and haven’t moved, but as someone pointed out, there is very little inventory for someone who is serious about buying. It’s interesting to ponder what causes one house to sit on the market for months and another to go in a few weeks.
On the renovations, there a quite a few houses that have had renovations done with nothing filed, and there are also instances where the renovations have created illegal use. I can think of two, one sold, one hasn’t yet.
LOL, IMBY. What % of homes in brooklyn do you think have permits pulled with the DOB for their renovations??? My guess would be 20% or fewer.
