Sale at 213 East 2nd Street #7

Broker probably wants to sell it to their own buyer not you so they conveniently forgot the keys. Absolutely amazing that this can happen and after property "SELLS- ITSELF" she will get her 40,000 commission possibly 80,000 if she sells to her buyer. What an unbelievable racket!
PANY at least you won't be the buyer paying this person's commssion.

The psychology of this market hurts my brain.

Twice during my apartment hunt was I not able to see units because there were screwups with the keys. In one case, the seller (an estate) had not left the keys with the super as promised, in the other case, the seller left the wrong set of keys. Maybe this broker had a similar bad day. Maybe you didn't express enough interest as a serious buyer to make her want to show the place at another time (you clearly think it's overpriced, and if she's got an offer near ask, why should she show it to an obvious bottom fisher?). If you're actively shopping, get your broker to give her a call and set up an appointment. If you can't get enough real estate porn online and need to see it in person, you can wait until the next open house.

The psychology of the market abusers hurts my brain.

Seeking to double money on a 2011 purchase on east 2nd street and avenue B is pretty nutty. The staircases here take up so much room this is probably north of $2500 per usable square foot. That psychology hurts my brain.
