new Manhattan loft listings + closed sales in last 7 days

Dec. 1, 2008
Categorized in: Market Data - reports
There were only 13 Manhattan lofts reported as new to the market in the last 7 days and only 8 as sold, in a real turkey of a week; 8 of the 13 new ones are offered between $1mm and $3mm, while 4 of the 8 closed sales were between $1mm and $3mm; only 1 of

pretty negotiable as 17 White Street #3A closes

Jul. 30, 2008
The Manhattan loft #3A at 17 White Street came to market on March 13 at $4.5mm and found a contract within about six weeks -- the kind of trajectory that often implies a deal at or close to the asking price. In this case, however, there was an 8% solution

17 + 55 White Street dueling open houses at $3.75mm

81 White contract / far east Tribeca condo under $1,000/ft

Dec. 19, 2007
At “1,982 sq ft” and asking (most recently) $1.75mm, the Manhattan loft #3E at 81 White Street looks like a bargain for a condo in a “classic Tribeca prewar loft building that was completely renovated in 2005”, doesn’t it? Particularly with the

perils of over-pricing / 36 White comes down again

Sep. 30, 2007
Chances are that people interested in this micro nabe (east of Church is a very different area than prime Tribeca) have seen this listing (live or on the web) when it was priced at nearly $2mm. Chances are, they rejected it as 'not worth it'. Having done that, it is hard for many buyers to take a fresh look when the price comes down, particularly when the price comes down in dribs and drabs.

you want an authentic loft? 265 Water + 35 White qualify, both new(ish)

Sep. 26, 2007
Categorized in: what makes a loft a "loft"
Two new listings fit my paradigm of “authentic” Manhattan lofts, though they are very different from each other: the 3rd floor at 35 White Street and the 4th floor at 265 Water Street.

Aug. 31, 2007
Categorized in: open houses
(remember to check the agent websites Sunday morning to see if open house is still on) None of the Manhattan lofts reviewed for last weekend are having open houses this Sunday (not surprisingly) (... [Read More]
