The Weeky Wednesday Wrap Up – Hoboken Condo Sales and Activity for The Week of January 26th

Categories: Weekly Wednesday Wrap Up

There is no question now that inventory is creeping up again. More new listings and not as many sales. This has got to put downward pressure on pricing. A previously much discussed unit closed this week at 508 Garden so for those who were curious, this short sale went for $500k. Another unit of interest to me was 65 10th Street. We actually met with the sellers about listing it and I have a very clear memory of our discussion about pricing. The owner said something along the lines of the first number having to be a “6” and I thought to myself, “I don’t want this listing”. It sold for $545,000 after almost 6 months on the market. Guess he had his 6’s mixed up.

Finally, of course we are disappointed about the Jets but that is overcome by our joy that the New Orleansnola saints Saints will be going to the Superbowl! The National Association of Realtors held their annual convention in NOLA just after Katrina and we attended and took the requisite tour of the 9th ward. It was the first convention after Katrina to be held in the convention center that housed so many stranded people during the hurricane. Having been another site of real devastation, seeing the stadium a scene of such joy and celebration was truly heart warming. “Who dat? Who dat? Who dat say dey gonna beat dem Saints? Who dat? Who dat?”

Want to Receive New Listings & Price Reductions Daily?

If you would like to be emailed the new listings and price reductions each weekday in either 1br, 2br or 3br categories just email us at [email protected] letting us know which size(s) you would like and we’ll add you to the daily email list. A word about that – if you have an ongoing relationship with another agent we are not going to email you. That means someone you’ve been working with on a regular basis and whose services you are happy with and to whom you feel loyalty. We respect that relationship. If that is the case, ask your own agent for listings. If, however, you’ve gone to an open house or you’ve seen several properties with several different agents, that’s not an ongoing relationship. Showing someone a single property, or even a few, does not necessarily a relationship make. You are the consumer – you get to decide with whom you wish to work. So we will ask you before we email you.
You can always contact us at 201 993 9500.
Thanks for reading and, as always, we welcome your comments!
