Greenwich Village neighborhood two bedroom condo for sale - 06/28/12 07:41 AM
Greenwich Village neighborhood two bedroom condo for sale   The most defining characteristic of the Greenwich Village neighborhood two bedroom condo for sale market is a lack of inventory.   Currently I track less than 10 Two Bedroom Condos for sale in Greenwich Village.  This also includes a few apartments in what most people would consider the outer border of Greenwich Village in NOHO or the East Village.  However any search for a Two Bedroom Condo for sale in Greenwich Village would probably also include these other apartments.   The average pricing for a Greenwich Village Two Bedroom Condos for sale is over $1500 sq/ft.  Another important metric is to follow the time on … (5 comments)

West Chelsea Highline Park Sunny Sunday afternoon - 06/24/12 01:03 PM
The history of the High Line was built in the 1930s,  It lifted freight traffic 30 feet in the air, removing dangerous trains from the streets of Manhattan's largest industrial district.
In 1999, group called FRIENDS OF HIGH LINE was formed, to preserve this track and now it is a elevated public park for everyone to enjoy.
Today is a beautiful day in NYC, after showing some condos near the neighborhood, I stopped by and took a walk on the highland park.

Can I do an inspection on my Manhattan Condominium Purchase? FAQ#10 - 06/09/12 04:45 PM
Can I do an inspection on my Manhattan Condominium Purchase? FAQ#10
The answer is that yes, you could bring in an inspector to do an inspection for your purchase of a Manhattan condominium purchase, but the practice is very uncommon.
I understand that home inspections is a standard practice for any home purchase, however because we are looking at a NYC condominium purchase the process is a bit different.  An inspector will typically not have access to any area's of the building other than that of the actual condominium so they won't have any ability to say if the building's heating … (2 comments)

Can I lease with option to buy in Manhattan condo? (FAQ#7) - 06/08/12 08:43 AM
 Can I lease with option to buy?
Technically the answer would be yes.  There is no law or rule in most condominium buildings that prohibits the ability to lease with option to buy.  However the reality is that in our experience this happens very rarely in Manhattan New York.Most times a buyer who wants to lease with an option to purchase wants a "rent credit" as a part of their deposit for the purchase side.  This type of scenario is very hard to negotiate for a Manhattan condominium.Another common practice for the lease with an option to buy is negotiating the price now, … (3 comments)

Common charge bills can sometimes be paid electronically or automatic bill pay, making it easier to make … (5 comments)

Will the Furniture come with my Manhattan condominium purchase? The furniture does not convey in a Manhattan condominium purchase unless it is openly communicated that it comes with the apartment.  If there is an option to purchase the furniture there will often be two prices, one with the furniture and one without.  The spread between the two prices, may or may not reflect the actual replacement costs of the furniture and will include a convenience premium of being able to move right into the apartment without spending the time to furnish it yourself.
