It’s been awhile since I looked at real estate. I was curious to see how much home prices have dropped since the bubble burst. I didn’t find any real bargains out there.

$299k: Bed Stuy, Brooklyn

Ok, so granted Madison between Malcolm X and Patchen is not the best block in Bed Stuy. But it’s $299k. And that funky fireplace is awesome!

$428k: Richmond Hill, Queens

Even though this is vinyl or aluminum. Even though it has a fugly front addition. Even though the bedrooms are carpeted. Even though I have no idea where Richmond Hill is. This house is pink. And pink homes rock.

$495k: South Bronx

Listed as a “Browns Stone”. This is a one family that can probably be converted to two. Original details, nice back yard. This is sooo up my alley.

In Manhattan, it’s the usual small coops for under $500k.

There were some homes in Staten Island, sure, but SI is on my shit list. Here’s a fun fact: Staten Island was the only borough that went red during this election. They also went for Bush in 2004. And they wonder why we alienate them.
