Manhattan NY Condos & Apartments For Sale 7498 Listings

Private condos are standalone units within a condominium complex. They offer full ownership of the unit and often provide more privacy and autonomy compared to other condo types. When you own a private condo, you have the freedom to make changes to the interior, decorate it according to your taste, and even rent it out when you’re not using it.

When on the market for a condominium, you’ll find large complexes with hundreds of units or small converted homes with two to four units. The ownership of these condos might differ; they might be leasehold or freehold. In addition, condos are managed by condo associations that impose certain rules and restrictions on owners.

NYC Single-Family Home Values Forecast to Drop, Led by Manhattan

Without core values, creating a home with everything you need + nothing more is a moving target where each decision you make is based on how you feel in the moment, not on a set of beliefs. Make sure you’re consistently reinforcing the values you want to instill in your children. Take turns playing different scenarios, and talk about how different actions align with different values. We can’t expect children to embody “leadership” “honesty” etc if we’ve never exemplified what that looks like. Role playing is the perfect way to further learning around core values. Reading books about core values can be a great way to introduce them to your children.

Why everybody who’s anybody in Manhattan real estate relies on Jon Mechanic

Why everybody who’s anybody in Manhattan real estate relies on Jon Mechanic

Jonathan Mechanic was gazing at the sweeping view from the 22nd floor of One New York Plaza, a skyscraper at the southern tip of Manhattan. In the twilight down below, a frenetic New York scene played out, as boats trundled every which way across the harbour and helicopters zipped to and from landing pads on the East River. Mechanic was focused on the buildings. To New York’s uber real estate lawyer, each was its own saga, with reversals of fortunes, convoluted deals and colourful characters. Lots of heroes, not many villains. “I can tell you the history of the buildings: who sold it to who, who financed it, when it traded, who the major tenant was, when they left, why they left, who the new guy coming in was,” he said.

Then he began to do so. “Seventeen State Street?” Mechanic said, glancing at the cylindrical tower just outside his
