All you crying bears, show me ONE 2007 closed condo that has sold at a lower price

LALALALALALA I can't hear you.

LALALALAALLAALALALA I can't hear you.

Condos that closed in 2007 and are back on the market are, for the most part, not selling, so it would be kind of hard. Ask us again in March, maybe May if you allow some time for closing.

I'm a smiling on the outside, smiling on the inside kind of bear though, so maybe I should just have said...LALALALALALA I can't hear you.

Is there a prize for the winner?

No soup for you Esawoy with your fancy sounding name! Dude your name alone must be worth like what $10MM? No?

Oh... savoy=sawoy... you know what I mean....

Well, first of all, pretty poor of all of you to have failed this challenge.

Second, w67, you have serious problems and I don't say that because of your posts on this particular discussion.
And, Esawoy was developed because I saw a banner ad for Savoy, so I made it Sawoy, and then an E at the front of it for no good reason.

Unthinkable Happens: Manhattan Apartment Prices Fall

http://www.nysun.com/business/unthinkable-happens-manhattan-apartment-prices/84900/

1st, 2nd and 3rd... if you think the "real" market anyway you define is not cratering right now... you have a problem :) No soup and no bread for YOU!

my hero.. alpine292... you I still like.. ESawoy aka... couldn't just keep "savoy" cause my mind is totally on drug and must explain this to crazy w67th... the article is from summer 2008... but you're right the market just corrected and we're all saved and you apt is totally like not under water... PEACE OUTA!

Failed? Wouldn't that require trying, or at least caring?

Do you actually think this "dare" will prove anything, or do you just enjoy wasting people's time?

Interesting, so far not one single example. But a lot of loudmouths viewing the market through their own narrow point of view.

look at SE listings for 10 west end ave and 555 west 59th street. There are one or two apts in each building which are asking less than what they paid for them in 06 and 07. They have not sold yet even at those prices.

E Sawoy, did you not read my link?

The link had an article. Show me one apartment that sold now for a lower price than it closed for in 2007. Show me a flipper who sold for a lower price. Don't show me that a listing has declined. Don't show me a quote of a broker who said that an UNNAMED listing is down. Show me the a specific example.

This unit is selling for a 10% loss:

This is certainly interesting:

Less than 05 levels in this building...

Come on man, this is just flame bait, asking for a single example amount the thousand or so apartments sold in Q4...

I bet you could find one example (for who knows what reason) in the boom times.

Show me ONE idiot that still doesn't think the market is sliding down.

Oh yeah, that would be this thread.

jgr... hold his leg... Harlem-Condo, grab his arm... Alpine292 hold his other leg... West81st grab his other arm....positivecarry pile on and kick him in the head..... alright alrighty... now clear out and let me remove that mask.....

OMG! It's Agentrachel.... :)

Pls bf anyone gets their undies in a bunch... it's just a little humor :)

that's humor? work on your act.

i love when people do these SHOW ME ONE threads, then they get shown about 20, and they keep saying SEE YOU CAN'T SHOW ME ONE!

It's a co-op:

4G 2-BR $1,149,000

Listed for a significant discount over a lesser apartment (lower floor, no view, bad layout) that sold in 2007:

Case closed.

Alpine wins the first award.

Harlem_Condo - you also win an award, although I had wanted to specify prime Manhattan, but I didn't so you win.

w67, good job continuing to say nothing. You are definitely that master of noise on streeteasy the past month or so.

stevejhx, very good effort, but I know you have seen a lot of units, so follow the rules and find one that meets the criteria, not two that can be stitched together along with a lot of explanation.

the first award? you asked for JUST ONE. game over, right?

ESawoy, the rate of turnover in Manhattan is too low to find many properties. You'll just have to accept that.

holy cow, we did this is 2 other threads already with multiple examples.

one is not good enough. 5 will not be good enough. That listing wont count because of ..... Why even bother falling for this stupid game. Besides, we did it twice before and listed at least 7-10 properties. where did that thread go?

ESawoy, this is a pretty silly "challenge." Even finding one doesn't prove anything - urbandigs is right and there are other threads on this.

bjw, urban, all very nice for you to comment, but if you didn't want to play, why comment at all? You basically have proven that you can talk (congrats on being a loudmouth), but you haven't shown any examples which ought to be embarassing for guys who think they know the market.
So of 34 comments so far, we had 2 winners and one very good try, plenty of blah blah blah, a bit of crazy, lots of excuses, several insults. But only 2 winners.

Winners and losers, which one will you be today?

oh, i thought the game was over. you asked for one, you got a bunch. game over.

This thread is soooooooooooooo last year.

Let it die already. Stop beating the dead horse.

"if you didn't want to play"

How old are we?

IGNORED! Like I said, we did this twice already. I see where deals are happening, so listening to your rants is just entertainment to me.

savoy -aka.. lower net worth....
I'll end it like it should have died with one comment....

LAALALALALALALALAL I can't hear you.

Can someone show a condo that sold in 2007 that has closed at a higher price since then?

225 fifth ave sold 1,620,000 in 07 (+ sponsor closing costs/transfer tax) . sold for 1,550,000 1/20/10 (+ transfer tax)

apt 10S that is

"Can someone show a condo that sold in 2007 that has closed at a higher price since then?"

Many at 15 CPW. Some higher resales at 170 East End as well; however, these were 2008 initial closings rather than 2007

sideliner, I was not aware of that
