How not to buy Real Estate aka How to plant a story
This appeared in the NYPost
"Jake Gyllenhaal is house hunting this holiday season. He recently checked out a stunning two-bedroom, two-bathroom penthouse at 65 Thompson St., which is asking $3.55 million.
Gyllenhaal has been buzzing in the news this week when he revealed on “Ellen” how he hurt his hand on the set of the upcoming “Nightcrawler” indie film. “A mirror broke in the middle of a scene that I was shooting,” the actor said.
The penthouse he toured comes with its own “Hamptons-like” entertaining space and private rooftop zone.
There is also a fireplace, chef’s kitchen and walnut wood panels in the foyer. The listing broker is Bond New York’s Pawel Ciercwierz."
It sounds like perfect place for Jake the bachelor doesn't it? Right neighborhood -SoHo, chef's kitchen, "Hampton-like" entertaining space, hardwood floors.
Now why is it a plant? aka Why Jake will never buy the place.
1. Give everybody the exact address why don't you. Jake - Mr. Private, would never buy a place that has had the address published for millions to see. And that's all kind of dumb if he did.
2. Two Bedrooms?!? - We all know that Jake needs at least 3! One for Mama, and one for the nieces! ; )
3. When has Jake been house hunting? He only got back to his "new hometown" this week or did he? Because there are more sighting of him in London than there are of him in NYC.
Real estate is always an investment in the future. Even when it comes in inches. (just in the paper?)
