The Manhattan loft #2B at 161 Hudson Street had a pretty good run through the 2009 market, starting at $2.7mm in March, dropping twice in April (to $2.5mm) and closing June 30 at $2.41mm. That quick history shows that they really wanted to sell, and had a

The Manhattan loft #5G at 260 West Broadway (the American Thread Building) slid through The Market this year, starting on January 8 and finishing on May 6. (Not as fast as the ten week close at 155 Hudson Street that I hit on May 28, but almost as quick a

Agents often tell sellers "your first buyer may be your best" -- I certainly have told Manhattan loft sellers that. It is one of those pieces of accepted wisdom (at least among agents) that seems to me both valid and impossible to prove. (We are never lik

How's this for a lovely trajectory in a challenging market? The Manhattan loft #4N at 155 Hudson Street came to market on February 20 at the wrong price ($2.395mm) but they (apparently) really wanted to sell and they knew what to do: they dropped the pric

nothing to do with Manhattan lofts, per se
If you like Indian food as much as I do, you've probably been to Salaam Bombay at 319 Greenwich Street in Tribeca and to Tamarind at 41 East 22 Street in Flatiron. And you will be pleased to know that Tamarind i

The Manhattan loft #5B at 90 Hudson Street was certainly pushing the envelope when it came to market in September 2007 at $1.495mm (we know this because it did not sell). That ask was roughly $1,500/ft in a no-frills-mature Tribeca coop, but the sellers w

After dropping the price in February to $2.8mm, the 10th floor Manhattan loft sellers at 1 Hudson Street may have gotten a jolt when their 6th floor neighbors put their loft for sale at $2.75mm on March 14 and then dropped their price to $2.5mm by April 9

The Manhattan loft 124 Hudson Street #4A is new to market this week, asking $3.495mm and $2,626/mo (condo; taxes abated?) for "2,473 sq ft" of nearly square space with the master and living room looking over Hudson Street and the 2 other bedrooms (and "1

#4B at 16 Hudson Street is new to the Manhattan loft market today, at a rather different price point (and condition?) than other units in the building I have discussed. This one is smaller than the other two units, at “1,500 sq ft” but has a north ori

When I talked about death-by-small-increments (above) I was thinking about the seller (and agent) being motivated to drop the price meaningfully motivate buyers to think now is the right price, while running the foot-shooting risk that buyers will instead

The Manhattan loft on the 5th floor at 156 Franklin Street is on the market as of this past weekend, asking $2.195mm and $1,700/mo for “1,700 sq ft” that is “newly renovated”. Clearly, the loft has been renovated since the current owners bought it

Following up on the #3A / #3C paid at 16 Hudson Street, the NY Post today provides the opportunity to look at the Manhttan lofts #6C and #13E at 395 Broadway.

If the #3A at 16 Hudson Street Manhattan loft sellers did not know #3C's contract price when they came to market in early September for $2.495mm, they should have found out soon after the September 18 closing. Then it was four weeks before they dropped th

The Manhattan loft #6F at 135 Hudson Street has been on the market since July 2006. It is said to be “1,400 sq ft” with tongue and groove original pine flooring and hints of work to be done (“current configuration is as an open space with three slee
