LIC real estate video watch: Toll Brother’s 5SL

what a cute little neighborhood.

I am not a fan of the windows in this place.

They apartment doesn’t seem very distinctive. Very cookie cutter Toll Brothers.

I bet this was made for foreign buyers/investors who cannot visit the place.

how many LIC residents are there?

#9, let’s try not to be juvenile and instigate a building vs. building war. I seen both building very closely. Citylights has pluses and minuses, so does 5SL. Neither is better than the other. It’s all about what you want. I’ve made my choice and I am happy, and I’m sure the other side is as well. What you are stating is your opinion, which really isn’t worth much in situations such as where to live as personal tastes vary. I’m sure there are people who would say both buildings are crap.

Come on – people aren’t stupid. Do you think anyone who bought there did it because they thought they were buying a loft? I don’t know if its the best condo in the hunters point area, but it certainly is in the running. Again as some one said its a matter of personal opinion. Clearly you have never been involved in sales. There aways is a bit of hype and exerragation. Be a big boy and get over it.

Hey # 13, I haven’t posted in a while now, and I always post with my name. Again, someone who can’t think before they speak, and again with the insults.

Charlie.

Ignore #9,15. Clearly trying to instigate the whole which building is better war. Clearly nothing better to do with his time.

What the hell are you talking about, # 15? Do you think I am # 9? I don’t even care what the new buildings are all about. If I had something to say about any of them, you’d know it. I don’t hide behind “anonymous”. You sound like you’re one of the posters from curbed.

Charlie.

You are rght # 19. I strongly suggest that liQcity do something, concerning these posters like #15 and kc, with their slanderous remarks.

Chalie.

Ugh. Logins are not the answer. If liq forces me to log in I will no longer post comments.

First, LIQCity, thanks for the unexpected exposure. It certainly added a couple hundred extra views of the video. Much appreciated.

Second, yes, those of you who said that the video is too long, I agree. This was my first attempt at a “professional” production and the people who edited the video work in television and usually produce half hour reality tv programs. Short is sweet and next time I’ll try to keep it to a minute or so. I’m also working on a LIC montage, LIQ, I’ll give you a heads up when it’s out. I do believe that the video helps. Someone may see the video of 5SL who wouldn’t ordinarily give it a look and may like it enough to come in person. Conversely, someone may see the video and eliminate the option altogether. I guess it’s all about efficiency.

Third- whoever is calling me a “snake oil salesman” -get a life. Selling real estate is my job and the fact that you are talking about it only proves that I am doing it fairly well. The “snake oil” in this case happens to be the best priced 2 bed at 5SL, in the front (doorman) building, and it’s an even better deal if you consider the lower closing costs being that it’s a resale.

If anyone would like a look in person, I’ll be holding an open house tomorrow (Sunday) from 12-1. I’ll have cookies from City Bakery waiting for you.

Finally, LIQCity, keep up the good work. I love your blog , you give us at afineblog a great run for the money on LIC!

#25 – Well said and agreed.

#27 – Let him shill his so called “luxury apartments” on his own website. There is no need for him to ruin Liqcity.

#28, LiqCity linked to A Fine’s video, how can that be A Fine’s attemp at “shilling” here? It came from his own site! He comments here often, so responding to people bad talking him is not an attempt to sell apartments, its a fellow reader defending himself.
I really enjoy A Fine’s blog, almost as much as this one. Very informative, and good for anyone who has real estate interests in this area. And a lot less of the pointless bickering that goes on here. Keep up the good work Andrew.

No offense #30 but I’m with #28. Liqcity may have posted the video. There is a difference between that and Fine’s shilling in this thread. He should be happy they posted the video and should have left it at that.

I agree 32, the video is not shill. the comment in this thread certainly is though.

just another yuppie building oh oh oversized windows -just another excuse for some midwestern jackass to move to nyc and think they are a big shot
