How Much Do You Tip The Super When You Move Into A Manhattan Apartment?

Aug 26, 2007 by newmover | Posted in Renting & Real Estate

I'm pathetic into a Manhattan apartment (not a doorman building), and was told that I need to tip the super when I move in. There will be 4-5 smallish renovations that will be made before I move in. But do I lack to tip him now, or should I hold off until Christmas? Or is this all about setting up goodwill?

Is It Possible To Buy A 250sq Ft Apartment In Manhattan?

Oct 23, 2006 by CyndiLauperfan | Posted in Other - Home & Garden

Friends and myself are looking to buy a miniature one room efficiency type apartment in Manhattan as a vacation property. We're talking a bed, closet and a microwave along with a inconsequential bathroom. Any thoughts? Is this a ridiculous idea? How mush would it cost?

I of you can even find 200sqft. Search through the many real estate search engines or broker pages for Manhattan to get an suggestion for ranges.. Obviously will depend on location.

Remember Jerry Seinfeld's Apartment Set On Seinfeld. How Big Is That Compared To Real Apartments In Manhattan?

Apr 24, 2009 by PER92 | Posted in New York City

People say affordable apartments in Manhattan are miniature. I'm just curious how they compare to the Seinfeld apartment seen on the show.

There are two things you have to rate:

1) Seinfeld was fantasy, nobody wants to watch a TV show set in 600 sqft studio apartment over a Chinese restaurant. His "apartment" was a well brought up size for Manhattan.

2) Seinfeld was filmed in the early 90s, back then, rent was far less than what it is today. His apartment in the 90s might have gone for $1,800 or so.
Today, that same apartment, a one bedroom, elevator construction, intercom system, would probably start at $2,700—and that's if you're lucky.

My apartment is in the Upper West Side, 2,200 sqft, two bedroom elevator, doorman, intercom, particular terrace and private video surveillance, on-site gym, and it's $4,200 a month to give you an idea of competition Manhattan rates.

Depending on what you're willing to sacrifice, which part of Manhattan you're willing to live, and how hard you look (I'll be square, I didn't spend near as much time as I should have viewing and looking at apartments), you could find an apartment for much less. However, finding anything under $2,000 that isn't in the projects is a Windfall.
