  1. The website for 192 President is truly barf inducing. Pretentious, ugly, soul-less computer renderings. I sure as s*** hope the end product is more attractive. But however fancy it is, it’ll never make this price for 1/2 a house!

    p.s. I think Helen knows what she is doing she has been in the business long time. I bought my house through her in 1986.

    I don’t know her personally (her listings are two or three stratospheres above our current target), but I do know of her by reputation. She moves a lot of property, much of it high end.

  3. mopar – I agree, I find sites with long flash intros and slideshows are the r word. Kinda stupid palate makes the less than transparent navigation annoying. Just effing keep it simple. Too clever by half.

    So if you go back to the site, they have some gibberish about what their company does…but it sounds like it came out of the same months long committee at big corporate that developed the new and improved mission/vision statement. You know, instead of the vaguely phrased we’re-blowing-smoke-up-your-but-does-it-feel-good approach, how about a little transparency.

    “With over 15 years experience in the development, real estate, and mortgage industries, light/house was founded as a boutique development company with the goal of filling the need for large, house-sized apartments within historic Brownstone Brooklyn.”

    WTF does that mean? If that is what your company does, then give us a link with your past work. Oh…sorry, you meant to say you are full of shit. No problem, but I really wish you would have went with something along the lines of “Bob, Dave and Joe started a company to make big apartment condos because we think there is more of a market for that than floor through units that normal people can afford. We’ve never done this before, but we’re smart guys, and have worked on some aspects of development before we did this. We used high end materials and reputable contractors.”

    OK, I totally fabricated that whole last paragraph. But IME, when somebody tells you their company has 15 years experience, 9 times out of 10 that DOES NOT mean they have been at this since 1995, but (oops!) they have three people with five years experience. I was just really put off by their whole approach.

  4. I actually love seeing ppties way way overpriced in prime hoods. the slow drift in prices I’m hoping for will take a while before it drifts to price I can buy. so as those listings do the thousand price cuts, it’ll coincide with the mkt drifting and then viola, it get to my price and I’ll have more saved to buy it.

    if something is priced well today, some deep pocket would’ve bought it already and no shot for this regular joe.

    that said, please all just these listings up by another $1M each
