the owner is dreaming. most likely had a few brokers come in and tell him lower numbers that he didn't like and decided that he can do a better job and get more money...... sure

I actually saw this apartment and it is so NOT worth the asking price, not even close. The "updates" were probably done around ten years ago, and the layout is awkward. That pantry they mention, behind the dining table. So you need to move the table every time you want to access the pantry. The closets are awkward and the layout is only good if you have minimal furniture. The terrace is nice, but you only have morning sun since it's a low floor and you're tucked on the inside of the "L" shaped building, so the apartment was really dark in the afternoon. For the price, I could get a much nicer recently renovated apartment on a higher floor. The owners are delusional and greedy if they think there is someone stupid enough to pay this price for that apartment. Plus, you can tell how greedy they were by their previous asking rental prices for this place. I think the previous posters were correct in their assessments.

Hey spinny, I cut my teeth on the bromley in 1996 to 20001, I traded some units there for $315psf in 1998 so the fact se only goes back to 2003 does a real real real disservice to the bubble parabola on a chart. Flmao. And did I sell too soon, absolutely but I made my 50% in 3 months. :). I'd still do that anyday, get out after 50% pop in 3 months. Flmao.

We wouldn't want to see you get all caught up in making $$$ in the bubble factory now would we?

I wonder did we offend someone?

Listing is "no longer available"
