I'm surprised they were able to unload this 1br 799 sq ft at that price. There are 2br 1000+ sq ft condos in the area listed only 50K more.
I don't think this building offers water views, so the premium is only for "Gaslamp". Buyer is already underwater!
Hi downtown sideliner,
I don't think this was a bargain at all. I've seen people pay way too much for condos downtown. It almost makes me want to get a real estate license or do some consulting to help them out. It's too bad as this unit is probably worth max $425,000 before sales expenses.
Just by chance, I walked past this building last evening - I saw about 8 real estate lock boxes on the 5th street iron gate! Not great advertising - at least the 50 plus lock boxes here at La Vita, and the countless lock boxes at Treo are in a nice HIDDEN box. . .some of you may have seen pictures of the famous "bubble bench" back in DC suburbs. . .it had about 50 lock boxes on an iron bench. . .after the picture was published, they went into hiding. . .
I am actually looking to buy a unit in the building also. what is the current market price per sqft in the building and neighborhood?
I heard the builder for Acqua Vista was horrible too, Hovnanian.
