BuyMyApt.com? This FSBO takes charge!
A: I saw this comment on Curbed.com today by Julie. Julie is selling her apartment on her own and reserved the domain www.buymyapt.com to help market her property! After a quick call to the owner for the OK to help in her marketing efforts, here it is. Good Luck!
301 East 22nd Street: OH Sunday 12:00 - 3:00PM
ASKING: $699,000
SIZE: 725 Sq. Ft.
MAINT: $933/Month (Low?)
After some quick investigating I found this one in same building whose seller is using the services of a broker, yet is listed 80K cheaper? Taking into account renovations expenses, I'm wondering what is wrong or different with this unit than the above FSBO?
301 East 22nd Street; Asking 619K; 1BR/1BTH; Marketed w/ Bellmarc
I guess we can throw that 'brokers don't bring anything to the table, they just add on 3-6% to the asking price as their fee' talk now!
More ACTIVE comps for this Gramercy neighborhood:
1. 235 East 22nd; Asking 645K; Elliman

It's a different line in the building...smaller with no empire state building views (looks at another building) and hasn't been renovated recently. We have high-end appliances in the kitchen and bathroom. Didn't realize that you were gonna take my listing to be nasty. Do more research dude.

I dont think I was being nasty Julie? You have every right to add on to your asking price for all the renovations you did and I was very clear in the post that: "...Taking into account renovations expenses, I'm wondering what is wrong or different with this unit than the above FSBO?"
There is much more to a listing than what you see on the web. Renovations, Layout, View, Sun, etc..These features are worth money and should be added to asking price.
All I did was bring up comps.
I still wish you best in selling your unit, and was only trying to expand your marketing while being fair to other units out there; especially when the original curbed.com comment feed was going into brokers adding on their commission to price! In the end, buyers will see what is out there and we are left to analyze!

To understand the price difference we must see the object. Simple as that.
