isn't it obvious?

You must be joking. And many people on this board have met all three of us.

We have not met you, desperate honesy.

??? prickbreath

ar, just waiting for you to show all of the "incorrect info i have been spouting for months"

here is something that shows how correct i have been this whole time:

report abuse i am sorry but those are not articles, they are opinions in blogs wit absolutely no data to substantiate any claims or hopes. show us the data of rents going higher and we'll talk.

I don't need to show anyone any data. other people here are doing it for me. there is another thread here (very recent) about rental concessions being taken away. my line is this:
1. inventory levels decrease IN DESIREABLE NEIGHBORHOODS (I don't really care about Fidi, Midtown West of 9th ave, Bklyn, LI city or the neighborhood next to the housing projects behind the time warner center. you want to live in those places, good for you)
2. landlords, noting the decrease in inventory will begin to take away concessions in select circumtances (this is already happening)
3. rents will increase

WATCH IT HAPPEN! If you don't sign a long term lease on a "deal" apartment you will be priced out

I do this everyday, I see it everyday

MOre like Groupthink

Hey...I take it as a compliment.

You're both better than I am.

Much nicer...well, at least AR is.

remarkable consistency:

report abuse i think it's funny to see something in print that i have seen coming for a while now. i am sure i am not the only busy rental broker to notice. the people right now who are unwilling to pay a fee are frankly only seeing a portion of the market. inventory, has indeed tightened up. that has and will invariably lead to a tightening of concessions of all kinds. soon prices will rise. unless of course you are willing to live in the financial distict, above 96th st, west of 9th ave in the east 30's, and 40's. or brooklyn.

Much funnier...although I certainly set a low bar there.

And far better informed although I'm trying.

cc, we should get together soon.

Honesy, your record speaks for itself. Such as it is.

Good luck.

if you are trying to be well informed, cc, pay attention to what i have been saying for months. if you would have paid attention way back when, you would have been reviled, but you would have been right.
instead you are a stupid sheep cocksucker like your friends

I was actually talking about being informed about world events not the lunatic ravings of a desperate low life rental broker.

sure, i am going back over my greatest hits now, ar....its funny that everything i said will happen has happened, and is happening now

now, i am not saying i am right in everything. this just happens to be my business, i'm good at it, hence the accurate prognosticating.
i would'nt tell you for example, how to raise children poorly. that i am sure you know how to do all by yourself

Honesaroni...

What's your exit strategy?

on that note (good father and husband i am) time to take the baby for a walk. i use a bjorn. i figure it's good bonding.

i'll give all of you time to try and formulate a response, but in reality, you've lost. you should know it. go gracefully

cc would love to know what selflesss profession you have. please tell. bet it's something worthy of big-time respect.

I just can't wait to bring this thread up again. The gift that keeps on giving.

Honesy you know some sheep who need housing today. You don't know shit about demographics or macroeconomics.

Sleep well, asshole.

so, ar, i'll take that you're admitting that i am right now, but you hope to God you can prove me wrong some point in the future. thanks.

report abuse Does the baby know that the father is a low life blood sucker? Are you hoping that the baby follows in your footsteps?

as a healthy, well-adjusted, intelligent and successful person? yes absolutely

what do you do for your $$$ cunty?

smacks of a badly proven point of view ar....almost like saying i told you so when you are flat wrong

Provide value.

that's funny, so do it. so you are a bloodsucker as well, to someone, since i assume you charge money for your service. some of them probably think they can do what you do for them themselves. unless you are a dr. otherwise, you should shut the fuck up about how people make their money

You are a sad, sad baby.

You don't understand that businesses can provide value?

Be sure to explain that to your poor baby.

i understand that business' can provide value.

i have yet to see one that doesn't charge for it's service. my business increases value. it's all in the eye in the beholder
i say if you can call me a bloodsucker, i can call you one. i just don't pass judgement on what other people do. since you do, you are a cocksucker, among other things. so again, fuck off.

But...you don't provide value.

At best, you provide access.

Very, very different idea.

That's quite the supposition honesy.

No, you were wrong, you are wrong, and I suspect you'll be wrong in the future, possibly hugely, although I rather hope not.

You seem sooo desperate. I don't. cc doesn't. w67th doesn't. just you.

Is everyone here suffering Paxil withdrawal?

Just you asshole

AR/CC/W67: We know you're three different people. Now stop feeding the troll.

If a baby's mother is taking Paxil, is that safe for the baby?

cc, such a lightweight. can only see it from one side huh? value is to the landlord, not the tenant. fool.

cc, try and look up a synonym for desperate please. i think even people who might have seen things your way can see that you have been proven wrong.

Where is the value to the landlord? You sucking his dick?

yesterday i was hfs, and others. today, i am desperate to prove my point, when it has so clearly been proven for me. my story has always been very straight foward and simple. lower vacancy rates = higher rents and fewer landlord concessions. all of those points have proven out nicely in the last couple of months. what has your story been ar?

Can someone who has been institutionalized for mental illness (even if temporary, only one year) be a licensed broker?

Comon W81st... Once the feeding stops the comedy stops.

Does one find comedy funny if taking or withdrawing from Paxil?

jim_hones10 I totally agree with you. Aboutready, cc, 67 are ridiculouus

Thanks finallyjoy

New troll, please. You are getting tired. We want something big, something new. A full 9 months cultivating a new persona to have it deteriorate like this? I just expect so much more.

And please, whatever you do, please don't try to come back as a rental broker who sits atop of the Manhattan food chain, making the big bucks, Titan of Industry. Suspension of disbelief only carries so far in a movie, at some point even the most devout fan says "Oh, come on!!!."

Hi finallyjoy, welcome to SE.

So, what do you for a living?

Jimhones. I will take you at face value. Look, I'm not anti-broker, and I'm not against anyone making 3% of a multi-million dollar transaction for a few minutes/hours of work. It's not theft, and salesmanship is salesmanship. However. All this braggadocio is making you look like a total ass. Yes, I believe a broker who is working the trenches, meeting potential buyers, renters, sellers every day has something to contribute to the discussion. But if you don't step away right now from the keyboard and take a deep breath, you will have much more to lose if you are ever outed than w67-ar-cc-inonada since this is your bread and butter and they're just on for fun.

I have been added to the Three Muskateers? I'll change my name to D'Artagnan if only jimhones would acknowledge me so.

Wasn't there a baby #4 musketeer, son of one of the 3? Anyway. I have fact-checked Jimhones once before and he was right. So not a total blowhard, but you gotta wonder with the latest postings.

Maybe, don't know the muskateers that well.

FWIW, the post I put up above was one of jimhones's first. The mimicking of the hfs manifesto when he first got started (pre-hfs) is the first giveaway, the banning alongside hfs and rufus is the second, the brilliant deleted hfs-hones coverup thread is the third, the general trolly behavior is the fourth, and this latest blowup is the fifth. Despite saying he's an old poster with a new name as of 9 months ago, he now says he's only posted under jimhones09 and jim_hones10.

Let's just put it this way, is any other poster here so acerbic?

is any other poster here so acerbic?

yes.

There are a number of posters that make Rahm Emanuel sound like Mr. Rogers by comparison.

There are a number of posters that make Rahm Emanuel sound like Mr. Rogers by comparison.

Actually the poster I'm thinking of isn't fond of salty language.

Intercourse means the same thing as...

And now I'm done with this topic. Honesy has some trollish qualities but he's here generally to discuss real estate.

The other, not so much.

nada, even your friends can't go along with your story. give up. i know it's a lot easier to make stuff like this up than it is to admit that i have been spot on in my analysis. but that's what adults do. try and learn from this, and give up the multiple poster nonsense

How bout them Mets A.R? You think they'll do well this year?

Is Paxil withdrawl worse in the morning?
What about on a rainy day?

They'll do better than my team, the mariners. Teams are like children, you should love them no matter how they perform. Luckily my child disappoints me far less often than my sports teams.

If your team wins the world series, is that depressing?

Honesy you've been wrong for months. Likely years but we didn't have the pleasure of knowing you back then.

"try and learn from this, and give up the multiple poster nonsense"

You're the one who said you have posted under multiple names:

Why do you deny it now? Who were you posting as before? What do you have against ar, w67, and cc?

sure, your right. i sometimes post under the handle "30_years_re" i can't keep track.

by your count, how many is it?

keep ignoring the issue....i've been right all along, you have been terribly terribly wrong

I was wrong. I said that rents I was tracking were flattish compared to 2009, that they'll eventually go up, but that I had seen no such evidence yet. The TREGNY / Citi-Habitats report bore me wrong: rents are up 2% compared to last year.

You on the other hand have been right all along, starting with your Nov 2009 proclaimation that rents were up. I proclaim it's noon right now.

So, what made you feel compelled to switch handles on an anonymous board. Why did you find ar, cc, and w67 intolerable? Do you still find them intolerable?

so, you were wrong. are wrong. what's it like to have such a big brain, expensive education, and be incorrect about something so elementary? you have no business spouting ill formed opinions about the re market in this city. leave that to people who know what they are talking about

I feel so humiliated, like my life is meaningless. How could I have said that the market was flattish when it went up all of 2%, in line with inflation? Why wasn't I telling everyone that the market was up back in Nov 2009? Rather than saying it'll eventually be up, I should have just said it's up already and waited for thing to bear me out, all the while spewing my hidden agenda against the people I secretly hate for some past grievances on an anonymous message board. I am so ashamed of myself. I'll leave the spouting of ill-formed opinions about the NYC RE market to professionals like you.

Now that that's settled, what made you switch names on an anonymous board? What did cc, ar, and w67 do to hurt your feelings?

'nah, no worries.

jimnutz wouldn't understand a confidence interval if it came with a 6% bonus brain points.

i thought you were going to ask for me? still waiting.
do you really think, with everything i say here, that hurt feelings would have anything to do with it, if i was in fact switching names.

let me know what se says, k hun?
