Manhattan 2nd Quarters prices UP YoY

swe, you are sooo delusional. Underwater? what's that? I'm far from underwater on any of my properties. Selling one of my properties to unleash the equity for other investments/personal use is I think pretty normal.

easy swe, your starting to pant again...easy...sit...stay....good girl!

> Underwater? what's that?

rotfl. SteveF doesn't know what it means... but then is completely sure it doesn't apply to him.

I love it!

Sorry, SteveF, most of us were here when you were desperately trying to unload, and you told us you bought at peak. Whoops.

> Selling one of my properties to unleash the equity for other investments/personal use is I think
> pretty normal.

Sure, it is. Of course, when you keep performance chasing and basically just connect a string of bad investments, it might be normal, but its pretty dumb.

"wow, when steveF is on your side, you know you have problems..."

Sorry, what is this board coming to? Your best "argument" against someone is that another poster you constantly berate agrees with them, so they must be wrong? Amazing.

swe...foam...the foam from your mouth is bubbling up...... I don't know what to say to you dude. I've made money with my real estate investment. Sure, there have been some hectic/unfortunate times along the way but being an owner has been mostly good to me. I've done very well relatively speaking. I've provided housing to people who have done their thing and developed all good relationships with my tenants. Even that late paying Argentinian guy when I first started out. So I'm happy with the choices I've made. I don't think you are too happy with anything.

bjw, swe knows the tides are turning and is not looking forward to the wrath that will be bestowed on him once proven wrong. Trying to seize victory now is an understandable strategy, but swe himself has always said that the "timing doesn't matter just the fact that it happened at all." Hee Hee Hee. Stay with us swe, this will be fun to watch.

> swe...foam...the foam from your mouth is bubbling up......

No, steve, those are your tears...

> I don't know what to say to you dude.

Yes, everything you've said has been wrong. I'm not sure what you got left.

> So I'm happy with the choices I've made.

All your whining, crying, complaining, trying to get folks kicked off the board to the contrary!

"No, steve, those are your tears..."

How did his tears get in your mouth? Odd.

> swe knows the tides are turning and is not looking forward to the wrath that will be bestowed on him
> once proven wrong

Juice, Juice, so sad. There is no way to "uncrash" a market!

Sorry, you lose again!

btw, all this talk of trying to prove me wrong, are you finally going to admit you were???

Come on, juice, you can do it!

> Hee Hee Hee. Stay with us swe, this will be fun to watch.

Watching you still try and squirm out of the huge mistake, yup, its hillarious! Has been for months and months and months!

Come on, juice, do it for another 6 months!

> Trying to seize victory now is an understandable strategy

Again, Juice with the superstrawman.

Sorry to burst your bubble, honey, but you're being dishonest again. I've been calling you out on it for over a years now.

Sorry, toots, you lose again.

You are right about one things... it is funny to watch you squirm!

swe, JuiceMan is right, the real estate market is gaining confidence every day that passes. It was a rough ride back in Q4'08 and Q1'09 as the market froze when "the world was ending". But that time is long gone. People realize that if we can survive the Lehman, AIG, Citi, GE, Goldman etc...disaster then we can survive anything.

> swe, JuiceMan is right, the real estate market is gaining confidence every day that passes.

No, he's not. The speed at which we might or might not recover from a crash doesn't make those who said "there will be no crash" (actually, sorry, juice actually said "not gonna happen") anything less than wrong.

> disaster then we can survive anything.

You are confusing surviving a bubble pop with returning to bubble pricing. How is your pets.com doing?

Sorry, steveF, you're not just lousy at investing, you are lousy at logic, too.

(and, make sure you don't look at that thread about condo prices dropping 7%... you REALLY don't want to see that one)

> It was a rough ride back in Q4'08 and Q1'09 as the market froze when "the world was ending".

Shhh... don't tell Juice, he still won't admit it happened...

Unfortunately, things are slowing down in Manhattan real estate. It's going to be a very slow rest of 2010. The economy is not good all over the world. Where will the crazy money come from?

steveF and perfitz.

Pull the string and watch the monkey bang his symbols. LMAO.

sad part is how Juice and SteveF doen't get they're just projecting...

lol

somewhereelse,

If I could possess 2% of the wisdom you have :-)

You Rock!

bjw2103,

Are you in love with somewhereelse & myself? Bugger off. Hypocrite.

Says the guy just chomping at the bit to troll on my thread. There should be a word for someone who calls others hypocrites but is actually the culprit. I'd call it mutombo, but that would be doing further disservice to a great basketball player and nice guy (none of which applies to the SE incarnation).

bjw2103,

Stay classy.
