We knew the NYC real estate market was crazy, but we didn't realize it was Satanic ritual crazy! Upset "Manhattan millionaire" Daniel Farash tells the Post that he listed his Upper West Side three-bedroom apartment at 310 West 79th Street with Warburg Realty in 2003. When Farash came home one weekend, the real estate agent holding the open house was naked and screaming, after apparently urinating on his beds, breaking various objects, arranging things to "look like a woman giving birth" - and pooping in a closet! And people, that is what your 4-6% is getting you.
Farash is now suing Warburg Realty, charging the incident resulted in him selling his $1.4 million apartment for $500,000 less than market value. He also says it's left him suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder.Interesting - if you have an open house, and the broker knocks over something, the broker is not responsible? We suppose most brokers would pay for damages - but the ones with Satanic and bodily function issues probably wouldn't. What we'd like to know is whether Warburg paid for cleaners. Farash has brought his sensational lawsuit to the Post because Warburg is being "uncooperative," which surprises us because you'd think the realty would want to keep this quiet.The broker was identified in court papers by her company as former real-estate agent Julie A. Johnson.
According to a deposition, the firm's president, Fred Peters, admitted the company knew she was mentally unstable, having discussed her anxiety and stress issues with one of her therapists. But Peters insists the company is not responsible for the damages.
Peters and the company attorney did not return calls for comment.
And not that we know the details and highlights of Farash's old apartment, but in 2002, a 2-bedroom in the same building sold for $1.75 million.

Unholy Crap! hahahah. Did you see that woman's picture? she looks like an cherubic angel except for her devil eyes. Fucking scary.
You gotta love her bio. Here's the first red flag - former actress:
With her astonishing energy, Julie is the firm's undisputed leader in total transactions for six years consecutively, and is among the top ten performers in dollar volume. Whether it's a townhouse, loft, or traditional apartment, her love for architecture and design helps her find the perfect place for you to call home. She also possesses expertise in all types of rentals. A New Yorker for 20 years and former actress, she had a contract role on One Life To Live, and appeared in over 60 national TV commercials. Let her real estate magic work for you today!
Bizzare story. Maybe real estate companies should start testing their sales associates for drugs just like many other companies do.
Anyhow, if this happened way back in 2003, why does Warburg Realty still have her listed on its website? (Warburg praises her "astonishing energy".)
The Red Eye' are perfect!
On a serious Note: Hope that lady got help!
Note to self: do not use satanic rituals when trying to sell apartment.
Even with those problems, us guys like em crazy.
and, running around naked and screaming??
That's standard operating procedure for crazy girls.
for some reason, the girls I know who are crazy would strip and go nutso. Like it's punishment for us if they strip naked. uh, no, we like em naked.
Must be Daddy issues.
Wow. This woman is clearly mentally ill - I feel kind of sorry for her. I'd imagine Warburg would have paid for just about everything just to keep this hush-hush.
To the commenter who hypothesized that these agents should be tested for drug use....it's my understanding that cocaine (among other drugs) fuels the real estate industry.
I actually worked at Warburg Realty for over a year and assisted the top brokers. Julie Johnson was one of the brokers I worked for. The incident happened before I started working there. She is actually a very sweet person, though she did have some problems and would get really stressed easily.
I can't stand Warburg. I'm glad they are getting negative press.
yeah, 4-6% commission well deserved.
Yah, he should sue, but how could it cause post traumatic stress disorder? That is ridiculous!
and i thought my broker from brown, harris stevens was bad when i tried to sell my place. he just refused to ever have open houses and never returned my calls. and then just quit one day. he actually made me show my own place once because he wanted to go out of town that day.
i guess i should consider myself lucky!
re: bill brasky
cocaine fuels pretty much every industry.
ps. i heard you once ate the bible while waterskiing.

I don't understand how the incident could cause the value to drop by $500k from market value. It seems like you would clean up the damage, fire your broker, hire a new one and sell the apartment for market value. The incident may have scared a few potential buyers, there may be costs involved with clean up and it may have taken longer to sell the place by having to do all of that, but 500k seems like a lot of value to lose from one incident.
Oh God, yeah that bible thing is true. Sheesh. I also once punched a hole through a cow just to see who was coming up the road.
And I agree about coke being in many many other industries too.
She still has current listings and a ton of sales. Maybe I can go to an open house she is having, crap in a closet, and buy it for $500K under market value too.
What kind of a wuss gets "post traumatic stress disorder" from a little poop in the closet. Dan Farash should apologize to her. If Ms. Johnson can sell an apartment using her real estate magic where can I sign her up.
Yea, but like any demonic/black magic you conjure up you will eventually pay a heavy price (at least that's what happen in those Vicent Price movies). As it so happens it cost the owner that $500k. I guess that's what having Beelzebub as your real estate agent will cost. He ain't going for 6%.
Johnson's fee to Farash was eternal damnation for his soul plus the usual 6%.
I wouldn't mind this little cutie running around naked in my apt. I'd keep her away from the closets, tho.
and she wasn't fired because of that incident? I bet right now she's shitting in one of her client's closets after reading & seeing her own picture in a newspaper.
Pooping in a closet?
Running around naked in an apartment?
Some people charge a hefty sum for that type of entertainment.
I don't get the Satanic Ritual refs and the "arranging things to look like a woman giving birth?" What things? Explain? Anyone?
Johnson, ran around the building (I wont go into details.)
Farash was homeless after that.
I wouldnt call him a wuss, not to his face. But if you would like to.... it can be aranged, after you sign a disclaimer!!!!!
The story in the post. Wasnt a tick on the pitbulls ass. It will come out. And you wont sleep that night!!!
I understand the real estate community is somewhat up in arms over this event. It really isn't good for the industry.
The article in the Post covered maybe 5 percent of the factual information (and the sensational and irrelevant 5 percent at that.)
I am one of the few people who are entitled to have an opinion, not because I may have suffered, but because I know the facts. With all due respect, you all do not.
It is appalling that the New York Post printed Ms. Johnson's name and terribly misguided that her image was exploited. In the law suit, she is not mentioned by name, only as Jane Doe. She is not being sued. Do not hold the journalist responsible. Journalists report to editors and so on and so forth. (This is only my opinion.)
Making fun of this or her is despicable and cowardly.
The truth is not on my side, but it will be shortly. And Ms Johnson's name will be restored.
