looks like Agyness Deyn just closed this week on an apartment in Williamsburg for just under 1 million dollars.

I’m surprised that the co-ops in that building were only going for 781k two years ago. The square footage is fairly large.

Maybe he didn’t buy another place but is taking advantage of some great rental deals.

I’ll pay $500k + me throwing 300k CD copies of First Impressions Of Earth at his head. Final Offer. Doesn’t get any better than that.

According to ACRIS, Albert finalized the loan process for his co-op in February 2005 for 770,000. I don’t know whether that’s the selling price of the apartment or just the loan amount. And about three weeks ago, he took out a second lien on his apartment, I guess, to refinance his loan? Real estate people, help me out.

In the last two years, the most anyone has paid for an apartment in his building has been $781,000 which happened two years ago. And he was selling his–in this market–for $1.2 million, initially.

I just don’t see the point in selling at a time like this if you don’t have to.

I believe he moved to meat packing district. i have not seen him in the east village in a long time. i bet he wants to sell it at any cost so he does not have to pay duel morgage.

the “upper side”? whatever that is, albert wouldn’t move above 14th street.

omigosh. i had no idea so many real estate hounds were reading this!

i mean if we want to get technical about the real estate deal, he probably would not make much out of a deal like this. They are ASKING for $899k, which in this market, will probably NOT be what it will sell for (if it sells at all). Factoring in the probable resale fee of selling his co-op, he’d be really lucky to make $100k on this, IMHO.
