You still had your ass handed to you. You look like an idiot on this thread and nothing you write from here can change that. It is immensely satisfying for me.
“You had your two faced ass handed to you on this thread.”
I call it a skin breach. A direct hit home. The irony.

Implications? You had your two faced ass handed to you on this thread.
“Hey BHO;
Spare me your trite observations about life in the Great Depression, you ass. My parents grew up in the Dreat Depression, both children in broken immigrant homes. I grew up with their haunted memories of what life was like for them at that time.”
Eat one, Benson. My people were lynched during the Great Depression while trying to escape 50% unemployment (versus your 25%). With all due respect, what your parents went through aint touchin’ that. I’m haunted everyday about what my people went through (and still are going through), the latest episode curtesy of the NY Post.
“It is exactly for that reason that I find people like you to be despicable, people who would post their glee on the internet over the prospect of another Great Depression, so that they could pick up a ‘deal’ on a house.”
You goddamn right I’m gleeful. Gleeful about a price collapse, not a depression. But I can’t have my cake now can I? THEY (all who participated) wrapped the global economy around home prices, not me. This depression is a means to an end. It was all good in the hood when prices were 3-4 X income.
“Why don’t you grow up and think about the implications of what you write on this site?”
Implications??? You guys give me too much power.

the attys tended to be “referred” by the mortgage company.
Isn’t it true that NY State is the only one in the country to require that buyers and sellers hire an attorney to represent them during a purchase? I thought I heard that when I bought.
If so, you’d think that these guys might have halted *some* people from getting into something perhaps they shouldn’t have…
I hear ya, mopar. There were definitely predatory swindlers out there. But at what point does personal responsibility get considered here?
If the deal sounds too good to be true, it probably is. If you don’t understand the terms of a loan, get a lawyer.
Houses keep selling, BHO. Which part of this do you not understand??? Your inability to comprehend is utterly amazing.
“I find that funny that Team Bear thinks they’re PWNING someone in this thread about Last Weeks Biggest Sales and the prices that were paid.”
It’s hilarious. $2M in all of brownstone Brooklyn. Now that’s one for the record book.
