    Top NYC commercial property sales last week

    September 7th, 2010    Posted in Brooklyn New York, Hamptons New York, LIC Real Estate, Manhattan Real Estate, New York Real Estate, commercial real estate
     
    The most expensive commercial transaction last week in New York City was the $56 million purchase by the Wolfson Group of a minority interest in a Midtown office building. The next four deals were much smaller, with none breaking $10 million. Bed maker Dux Interiors sold its Midtown office building and a company called NY8 Properties bought a Chelsea development site.

    Where are the most desirable apartments?

    September 7th, 2010    Posted in Brooklyn New York, Hamptons New York, LIC Real Estate, Manhattan Real Estate, New York Real Estate, commercial real estate
     
    Judging based on price discounts, time on the market and ratio of closed sales to available listings, Sofia Song, vice president of Streeteasy.com, compiled a list of the 10 most populous Manhattan precincts and “most sellable” type of apartment likely to find buyers. Topping off the list was the Upper East Side, where post-war two-bedroom co-ops are most popular, followed closely by pre-war two bedrooms, with a median closing pricing of $995,000, according to New York Magazine.

    When the subject of the day is rates for commercial residential mortgages, I must once again quote the famous former pitchman for the bankrupt electronics retailer Crazy Eddie stores: “These prices are insane.” The rates of the day are those being offered by savings and commercial banks to owners of rental apartment buildings for fixed-rate, first mortgages in the New York metro area. Today, an owner of any apartment building can secure a fixed-rate 5-, 7- or 10-year term at rates below 4 percent. Yes, I said, below 4 percent for rental buildings in the New York City metro region.

    Cassa becomes home to Showtime characters

    September 7th, 2010    Posted in Brooklyn New York, Hamptons New York, LIC Real Estate, Manhattan Real Estate, New York Real Estate, commercial real estate
     
    While the average writer likely wouldn't have a mirrored floor -- and ceiling -- in his study, and your typical cancer patient would never keep a bowl of onions in her bedroom, these touches could mean the ideal abode for some of TV's favorite characters. And if they existed outside of a TV program, they might feel at home at Cassa NY, which has teamed up with Showtime in the channel's third Showtime House exhibition. The Real Deal got a sneak peak at some of the newly designed rooms today (see the slide show above). The exhibition has brought in 14 different teams to design rooms inspired by seven of the channel's shows: "Californication," "The Big C," "Dexter," "Nurse Jackie," "United States of Tara," "Weeds" and "The Borgias." The installation, which was held at the Tribeca Summit condominium last year, will be open to the public on weekends between Sept. 11 and Oct. 23 at the hotel and condominium development at 70 West 45th Street between Fifth and Sixth avenues.

    When TLC means a major renovation

    September 7th, 2010    Posted in Brooklyn New York, Hamptons New York, LIC Real Estate, Manhattan Real Estate, New York Real Estate, commercial real estate
     
    The phrase “needs TLC” -- as in, tender loving care -- is increasingly being used by real estate brokers to describe a property that needs repairs or renovations. The New York Times visited several apartments described by brokers as needing TLC and discovered that this phrase can mean different things to different people. “It’s a question of how someone wants to live,” explained Madeline Williamson, a broker with Prudential Douglas Elliman. Williamson included the words “needs a good dose of TLC” in a $1.1 million listing for a townhouse in Brooklyn Heights. [more]

    Federal home loan program targeting underwater borrowers enacted

    September 7th, 2010    Posted in Brooklyn New York, Hamptons New York, LIC Real Estate, Manhattan Real Estate, New York Real Estate, commercial real estate
     
    A federal plan to try to halt the nationwide foreclosure crisis is going into effect today after months of planning, according to the Associated Press. The initiative, overseen by the Federal Housing Administration, specifically targets underwater borrowers, allowing lenders to grant loan refis to borrowers if they wipe out 10 percent of the original mortgage balance. Between 500,000 and 1.5 million homeowners could potentially be eligible for the program, which was first announced in March, the FHA said. [more]

    Hotel occupancy rate still going strong

    New York’s hotel industry is one of the country’s strongest, according to the Wall Street Journal.

However, the higher occupancy rate was partly because owners have kept room rates down. [more]
