Condo trades for under $850 psft in the UES

marco_m, you have to be an insider to see the data, could you please post it here?

closed for 1.1 -- 215 east 80th - 7B -

thank you Rent or Buy, I can see that now,
but sq ft is not mentioned, how did you come up with the $850/sq ft marco_m? thank you

you should change ur name to lowend for not payin the $10 to be an insider. sq. ftage is in the listing..

marco_m, you are the best on SE, you look like a broker

This traded at 2005 pricing (reference #6B, 1.1M, 3/30/05).

Is this really a big deal?

Do you guys consider this a remarkable value, the place looks pretty shabby to me.

I think the sale is further onfirmation of the fact that prices are headed lower.

lowend..not a broker..just find cheap people annoying

marco_m, you are pretty annoying
bulls?

fair enough

"I think the sale is further onfirmation of the fact that prices are headed lower."

Sorry marco, while I agree there's still downside risk, one sale at 2005 levels isn't really confirmation of anything. There have been much better deals out there, at '04 or even '03 levels.

Not that i want to start a whole manhattan vs outer boro thing but...
many people on these boards always bash buying in the boros bec prices in manhattan have come down so much that the cost savings is minimal
Currently luxury new construction in bklyn/LIC is selling for 600-700psf and in some cases less. this cookie cutter/ parquet floor/ 1980's kitchen & bathroom job is selling for 30% more, and this is a good deal worthy of its own thread.

sorry, this apartment is no more than 1000sqft... do the math.

Have to agree with marco_m, highend00--you are a joke.
