12/2/07 Some NYC Apartment Updates

By
Services for Real Estate Pros with Avalon Real Estate Agency

The first of the month is here and the inventory is starting to fill up.  

There are some great deals in Inwood New York right now like a gut rehabbed Studio, 1 and 2 bedroom unit close to the train and great local atmosphere for $1000 to $1300 a month. 

If your looking on the Upper East Side don't expect to be below $1500 a month for a 1 bedroom with a few exceptions. The 80th -116th street seems to be holding to those numbers.

I have a wonderful one bedroom with a huge bathroom and nice sized kitchen / livingroom combo. for $1595

Low 80's Rail-Road rehab, I just hosted an open house for brokers at a wonderful Flex 3 with exposed brick, sun drenched exposures and a new kitchen for $2995.  While the "flex" bedrooms were a little small, its still very close to the subway.  For roommates it could makes sense to have 3 in the apartment as a dinky, studio a few blocks south just rented for $1500.

6 floor walkup penthouse...  What? Yes but the best part is the terraces that have almost more space than the unit.

I personally would stay away from studio apartments when possible.  It's better to have some space if you can swing the extra $100 a month by living 20 blocks further north. Plan your search 1-2 months in advance so you can make an informed decision.

 

As always feel free to email me or call me if you have questions regarding NYC properties or are looking to rent an apartment.

Andrew, My dream is to live in the city for one year (I think that I could find everything I wanted to in that time)!  I have always lived on Long Island and get into Manhattan as often as I can, it's always full of surprises.
