So, what's McC doing with the taxpayers' money this Sunday? Here's the info on houses on the taxpayer funded bus tour through the city.
Few notes:
The Ardsley Rd house has been for sale since June 1, 2011! McC is NOT having any luck selling it because it's been on virtually every open house and yet look how many reductions in the asking price. And McC REFUSES to reassess these the city, this proves he is NOT competent to be mayor. The house is assessed for $185,000 but after 18 months no buyers at the dollar amount the city claims the house would sell for (assessed value), and it hasn't even sold at a price 20% below the the assessed value. But remember how the INCOMPETENT mayor and INCOMEPENT assessor claim that home values have only gone down 4%
The houses with the "X" are houses which the owners have alrady fled the city, the houses are shown empty
The taxes of the two with asterisk are very wrong. They include all the old age and war combat exemptions which most people won't get, but again, using false information is what McC is doing, hide the truth
442 Arthur stCity claims value is $77,000, asking $114,900!
Woefully outdated. Check out the 30+ year old refrigerator! And the kitchen sink is probably the original. Cabinets are terrible. And that ceramic tile! I mean really, buy a house for $114,900 and spend $30,000 to redo the kitchen? And really, look at the poor condition of that garage door! Ad says “…maintained..” Are they kidding? ANY realtor would list that with “needs work” and “sold as is”
937 Francis Ave. Taxes said to be $2,101 per realtor. It’s quite obvious that the realtor lies just like his buddy DV because the taxes indicated include exemptions that a buyer will NOT get.
1077 Glenwood Blvd. Ad is laughable. The only photos are the outside of the house and pictures of the windows.
1702 Guilderland. Taxes per the ad are not accurate because includes old age exemptions, again, realtors lie. Then you have to wonder, when a realtor writes “wonderfully maintained,” but decades old wallpaper? Decades old paneling in the living room? And “updated kitchen and bath” but then does not provide photos of the kitchen, was it updated 30 years ago? The bath has 1970’s paneling! Big money to update.
1100 Palmer Ave. McC and his cronies at Key Bank are sneaks, this house is NOT in Schenectady, it’s Nisky! But he wants to take the credit for it. Didn’t McC review the ad in the paper before approving it?
