Thxs w81. Crazy if id a bought H unit for $2.5mm in 2007 and just saw b close for $3.3mm, I might have to commit harikari. That's some serious 'equity' loss. Oh btw I believe 18b closed for $4.1mm 8 months ago. I.e. They are 'underwater'. That's a record of somekind,no?
it's funny but I corrected the spelling of "tranche" on another thread, haven't used the word harakiri since college in an english lit class but used it religiously for 7 yrs in banking, : ), harakiri... it is

(I am just discovering this thread, was at the beach & offline for all of August and then distracted . . . )
west81 in re: 320 west 86th, 8A/8B I DId bid on that before I had discovered Streeteasy - I went to the first open house the day it started showing and bid $2.5mn. I was rebuffed by Amelia & Andrew as being disrespectful to the building and the opportunity. Said they had another offer already considerably closer to the offering price and I was mistaken in my views about the possibilities the combination there offered.
. . . did I just type "before I had discovered Streeteasy" . . . I guess I did. and then I sent it before I had did proof-read what I had done typed . . . apologies to all.
Using the SE map, I found quite a few properties close to the beach in Amangansett from high 1m to mid-2s. Would a good strategy be just bidding 1.5m on the 2.5m properties (most of them nicer & bigger than the one on Surf Dr)?
Most of the websites I troll around in never want to meet face to face 'cause we'd have to take off our latex body suits & masks and anyway it's always soooooo embarassing when the lights are turned on . . . (that was a joke - just for 67th street & a few others). Would def like to come to one, but the scheduling just hasn't worked so far.
As for looking in the Hamptons, as above, we spend the month of August out there and as our kids get older we will likely try to extend that to July & potentially June as well (I can work out there which makes it possible) so we're open to buying in either place at some point, if & when the right opportunity comes along.
re: out east - I think that really MIGHT be a good strategy actually. 78 Maidstone is a very pretty house & is still absolutely walking distance to the beach (small further from the beach as it's north of Marine towards Central on Maidstone) but has no pool. I stress that the pool is a big deal. Particularly as you get closer to the ocean it gets very difficult to put in a new pool as the conservation & wetlands issues are tricky, and the town of East Hampton has gotten very very reluctant to allow new pools. But yes, I think the sale I posted here is potentially one that will cause sellers to reconsider their levels - there are listings out there that have been on the market for 500 days and longer -
in re: marine drive - put this into google maps - 110 Marine Blvd, East Hampton, Suffolk, New York 11937 - and then go almost all the way in, and you'll see that very few of the houses nearby have pools (the one right to the west does) - everyone who owns those houses is either nouveau wanna be rich like me, and would definitely want a pool if they could have one, or has owned the house for 30 years and has a cost basis of $15,000 (really) and would have taken out the home equity loan to put in the pool as a giggle already 'cause they have so much gain in the property if the town was in a pool allowing mood.
Is it really that impossible to get a permit? What about replacement of an existing pool?
Any thoughts on the clutch of properties nestled N. of 27, S. of Buell's in the high 2s, low 3s range? Mill Hill, Borden Lane - think there's going to be sig. traction on those prices?

interesting insight wrt 134 East 93rd. Where did you see the floor plan of the higher apartment that was used for a comp? It's not on SE...another source? Care to share?

Good set of comps, with just about the same layouts. It'll be interesting to see what 14G goes for, as an indicator of what buyers will or won't pay for a renovation. That 11G kitchen is great! Hardly ever see an untouched original kitchen. New gaskets on the dishwasher, or just use it for storage, and you're good to go with a paint job.
just out of morbid curiousity---assuming even a $250 K differential for condition at 11 5th ave, what does the buyer for 14G think when he/she discovers closing price on 11?
11G and 10R seem like highly significant sales to me. Those are large, ultra-prime 2 bedrooms selling way, way off peak comps.
By the way, this speaks to something I have been noticing in the village: a widening of the gap between pre- and post-war apartments. Prewars in the prime village seem to be holding up much better than this.

AR: That's a bitter pill for partnership that bought the fifth floor. Looked like a good deal at the time, way after the peak: $4.689MM vs. a final, reduced ask of $5.25MM. $3.6MM mortgage. More than half of their 23% equity is gone already, without even considering the expenses involved.
I love these lowballs, the Brevoort G-line one is interesting. I think that prewar holds up better than postwar generally in Manhattan (assuming location equality, same level of maintenance). They don't build them like they used to.

I just found this - 145 east 37th, asking 3.85ish with Corcoran last year, looks like a single-family renovated TH in Murray Hill. It was then relisted with Massey Knakal with no list price asking for all offers.
Closed for 2.2ish. What a deal, unless there's something I'm not seeing.
NYC10023: 145 East 37th appears to have changed hands in late 2002 for $1.45MM, then for $2.275 in August 2009. There seems to have been a shift into an LLC in 2003, followed by a binge of borrowing that might have financed renovations. Was the August sale a bargain, or a puncturing of overly optimistic expectations? Maybe a bit of both.

I realize it aint Manhattan but it is less than 250 feet from one of the 7 or 8 nicest beaches in the world with a pool . . . there is a link between these two marketplaces and sales like this one ought to give buyers renewd hope & determination to make offers if there are levels at which they would be comfortable buying.

(I am just discovering this thread, was at the beach & offline for all of August and then distracted . . . )
west81 in re: 320 west 86th, 8A/8B I DId bid on that before I had discovered Streeteasy - I went to the first open house the day it started showing and bid $2.5mn. I was rebuffed by Amelia & Andrew as being disrespectful to the building and the opportunity. Said they had another offer already considerably closer to the offering price and I was mistaken in my views about the possibilities the combination there offered.
. . . did I just type "before I had discovered Streeteasy" . . . I guess I did. and then I sent it before I had did proof-read what I had done typed . . . apologies to all.
LP: you ever going to come to a real life SE meetup? Pretty bang on with the 2.5m number.
Are you looking in the Hamptons too? That forum is pretty anemic.
LP, don't look out east but, holy smoke is that a great deal!
Nice change.
Using the SE map, I found quite a few properties close to the beach in Amangansett from high 1m to mid-2s. Would a good strategy be just bidding 1.5m on the 2.5m properties (most of them nicer & bigger than the one on Surf Dr)?
Say, this one? 78 Maidstone Drive - listed at 2.55m.
Most of the websites I troll around in never want to meet face to face 'cause we'd have to take off our latex body suits & masks and anyway it's always soooooo embarassing when the lights are turned on . . . (that was a joke - just for 67th street & a few others). Would def like to come to one, but the scheduling just hasn't worked so far.
As for looking in the Hamptons, as above, we spend the month of August out there and as our kids get older we will likely try to extend that to July & potentially June as well (I can work out there which makes it possible) so we're open to buying in either place at some point, if & when the right opportunity comes along.
Where do you go in the Hamptons? Thinking of renting out there and Fire Island next summer.
re: out east - I think that really MIGHT be a good strategy actually. 78 Maidstone is a very pretty house & is still absolutely walking distance to the beach (small further from the beach as it's north of Marine towards Central on Maidstone) but has no pool. I stress that the pool is a big deal. Particularly as you get closer to the ocean it gets very difficult to put in a new pool as the conservation & wetlands issues are tricky, and the town of East Hampton has gotten very very reluctant to allow new pools. But yes, I think the sale I posted here is potentially one that will cause sellers to reconsider their levels - there are listings out there that have been on the market for 500 days and longer -
That sucks, there's one on Marine Drive at 2.895m. No hope of a pool there?
in re: marine drive - put this into google maps - 110 Marine Blvd, East Hampton, Suffolk, New York 11937 - and then go almost all the way in, and you'll see that very few of the houses nearby have pools (the one right to the west does) - everyone who owns those houses is either nouveau wanna be rich like me, and would definitely want a pool if they could have one, or has owned the house for 30 years and has a cost basis of $15,000 (really) and would have taken out the home equity loan to put in the pool as a giggle already 'cause they have so much gain in the property if the town was in a pool allowing mood.
Is it really that impossible to get a permit? What about replacement of an existing pool?
Any thoughts on the clutch of properties nestled N. of 27, S. of Buell's in the high 2s, low 3s range? Mill Hill, Borden Lane - think there's going to be sig. traction on those prices?

There might be less here than meets the eye. BHS sems to have priced this duplex based on the comp directly above it, which was originally an identical apartment. But at some point, #7A apparently lost a chunk of its upper level, leaving a much less valuable property.
West81st,
interesting insight wrt 134 East 93rd. Where did you see the floor plan of the higher apartment that was used for a comp? It's not on SE...another source? Care to share?
Falcogold1: The tipoff wasn't the upstairs listing; it was the undersized dimensions of #7A/8A relative to the original "A" duplex layout.

Good set of comps, with just about the same layouts. It'll be interesting to see what 14G goes for, as an indicator of what buyers will or won't pay for a renovation. That 11G kitchen is great! Hardly ever see an untouched original kitchen. New gaskets on the dishwasher, or just use it for storage, and you're good to go with a paint job.
just out of morbid curiousity---assuming even a $250 K differential for condition at 11 5th ave, what does the buyer for 14G think when he/she discovers closing price on 11?
"I love my $700K kitchen!" or "Gee, maybe $450K was too much to pay for three floors' worth of view..."?
'lemmings come in all shapes and sizes'. There are $100k lemmings and the special $700k lemmings.
11G and 10R seem like highly significant sales to me. Those are large, ultra-prime 2 bedrooms selling way, way off peak comps.
By the way, this speaks to something I have been noticing in the village: a widening of the gap between pre- and post-war apartments. Prewars in the prime village seem to be holding up much better than this.
tribeca conversion. not exactly cheap, but quite a bit less than what it was first listed at already in contract. and 24% below final ask.

AR: That's a bitter pill for partnership that bought the fifth floor. Looked like a good deal at the time, way after the peak: $4.689MM vs. a final, reduced ask of $5.25MM. $3.6MM mortgage. More than half of their 23% equity is gone already, without even considering the expenses involved.
west81st, the penthouse could still be yours for just under $8mm.
25% below ask in a new development

I love these lowballs, the Brevoort G-line one is interesting. I think that prewar holds up better than postwar generally in Manhattan (assuming location equality, same level of maintenance). They don't build them like they used to.
West 81: more fodder for my "cheap estate sales lead the way" theory?

I just found this - 145 east 37th, asking 3.85ish with Corcoran last year, looks like a single-family renovated TH in Murray Hill. It was then relisted with Massey Knakal with no list price asking for all offers.
Closed for 2.2ish. What a deal, unless there's something I'm not seeing.

NYC10023: 145 East 37th appears to have changed hands in late 2002 for $1.45MM, then for $2.275 in August 2009. There seems to have been a shift into an LLC in 2003, followed by a binge of borrowing that might have financed renovations. Was the August sale a bargain, or a puncturing of overly optimistic expectations? Maybe a bit of both.
