somewhere in the bottom part of....Ubottom

congrats fellow lemming. i'd be interested to hear any more info about your digs if you'd be willing to share.

joedavis, it was a pleasure to share this process with u. You are a smart buyer. Hope to be your neighbor by the end of next year.

JD: do you have an email?

Felicidades! Suerte!!

go joe!!!!

Way to Go Joe !

congrats!

hey, if nothing else, you got yourself a 25-30% discount, at least! Nothing to sneeze at...

At least you have a sense of humor. Use your tax credit wisely, remember Ikea stuff just won't do anymore. : )

Congrats!
Another happy home owner!!!

Believe in America!

Ayi yi yi yi...............

Big congrats, Joe Davis!!!

While I am not certain you are at bottom, I am certain that you did much better than you would have a few years ago... So enjoy your home. And thanks for your input.

thx to all for the comments

it's a brownstone by morningside park

Congratulations Joe. Not just homeownership but HOUSE ownership...and in a beautiful area that will only get nicer. Who cares if could have gotten a few thousand dollars cheaper if you waited a little longer, you will be able to ENJOY it that much longer.

lyzyank, I am familiar with joedavis buy and I can tell u he got a very, very good deal that prices in a possible future drop. He was a very dedicated buyer. He was my Harlem hunter buyer buddy. I am very happy for him but I will miss our daily exchange of info. Thanks to SE for being a meeting place for people that are in the same trip and willing to help each other.

well done! a buyer has followed your footsteps and got my place (board interview last night went well) so I hope to be following before too long... much as I enjoy these boards, I'll be glad when i can kibbitz from the sidelines.

Congrats Joe! I ride down Manhattan avenue a few days a week from Wash. Hts. to ride in Central park. Beautiful area, best of luck.

Congratulations to you too trinityparent, good luck on your search for the perfect "smaller nest".

Joe: I was advocating buying a townhouse in some other thread because it appeared to fit your circumstances perfectly.

Joe, you were one of the earliest contributors to the UWS niche on this site. Thanks for your thoughts. Best of luck with you purchase. And I advise you to never look back. Hopefully we all can find something that fits our needs.

Say it ain't so, Joe! Happy homesteading. Don't look back.

What's the info on purchase? Just curious what was bought and how much was paid. Thanks!

Don't the kool-aid taste gooooood!

We closed Sept 1 and I am in day 18 of consecutive 16 hour days redoing my new place. Best of luck Joe. I'd say more but I'm falling asleep.

Joe Davis, thank you - we appreciate all your contributions here and wish you all the best! Will miss your entries, though!
