How Can I Find A Great Affordable Manhattan Apartment?
May 13, 2007 by cabindweller | Posted in New York City
Are there nice websites, magazines or newspapers that have the best listings? Will I have to go through a broker/pay a broker fee? How long should I plan to look? Any other tips?
Affordable = $2500 or less per month. Not looking for the lot of the century in other words - but a nice, liveable place with hardwood floors, decent scatterbrained, etc. I know parts of Brooklyn are cool (and I used to live there) but since we are moving to NYC to experience the Diocese (for a year or so only), it wouldn't make much since to not live in the middle of everything.
Well that is an oxymoron, you will have a larger chance of winning the lottery or being struck by lightening than getting a great, affordable Manhattan apartment. However, sensible apartments can be had as long as you're flexible. Craigslist will be your best bet from afar, particularly if you are looking to get a roommate or sublet. You will able pay a fee regardless, whether it is a broker's fee, application fee, or some other name. You look until you find an apartment. Depending on what your circumstances are most people initially find roommates in New York until they get settled with a job and an outlook of where they might like to live and decide that living here is what you want to do. On average a roommate/share in Manhattan will expense you at least $800 and a studio will easily go for $1600-24000. You would be hard pressed to find a one bedroom for under $2000. This consequence gets lower if you look in Brooklyn and Queens which is what a lot of people do. There are many scams out there of companies that engage to send you "listings" for a fee but never get anyone any apartments so beware of great offers or promises. That being said, New York offers some quirky valid estate. Sometimes you will find unique living arrangements from people who travel a lot that may rent you the living margin of an apartment and keep the bedroom for themselves but they only use the aprtment 1 week a month or something to that effect. Get creative. I lived in an apartment with a few roommates from A to Z cheaply because it was a railroad flat so you had to walk through one room to get to another (no privacy). Another had the shower in the kitchen. These apartments are becoming more and more rare as the request for real estate provides an incentive for landlords to improve their units and charge very grand prices. Unless you are a Rockefeller you should be trying to tell everyone you know in New York that you are trying to find an apartment here as consultation of mouth offers the greatest deals in apartments here. If your university has an alumni chapter here charges them out for tips, likewise if your current job has a branch or office here. It takes a bit of patience, fortitude and chances. You should also be prepared to pay first, last, and security deposit plus a brokers fee so you are looking at needing the equivalent of four months up front legal off the bat. Plus unless you have a great job where you are making major dough you will probably need a guarantor to cosign a rental agreement if you get your own apartment, typically you need to prove and annual income of 40 times one month's lease, so if it is 2000 a month you need an income of $80,000 a year to secure it. My advice would be to authentication Craigslist for a roommate.
Good luck!
Is Astoria A Good Alertnative To Living In Manhattan?
Oct 21, 2007 by NewNewYorker | Posted in New York City
Hello! I am in the development of relocating to NYC for my job. I am looking to find my own place, sans roomate(s) and have recently been checking listings in Astoria. What is the commute to Midtown like? Is Astoria a good enough place to live? Is it safe?
Thanks so much for these replies! So far, I think Astoria is going to be my rout bet. I appreciate the feedback!
Yes. It is not Manhattan, but a very subtle alternative. There are outdoor Cafes, good restaurants, good shopping, not many live music venues, but travelling into Manhattan is quick. On the main drags (B'way, Steinway, 30th Ave, Ditmars Blvd) the streets don't empty after secret. It is the home to radio stations, movie studios,all night restaurants, gyms, and close Greek food.
By car or train (depending whrere in Astoria you live) you can be in Midtown Manhattan in 15 to 25 minutes. Earlier small Manhattan in 35 to 50 minutes.
As a general guidline stay between 21 Street and 48th High road between 36th avenue down to 19th avenue. These guidlines don't apply on the North section (Ditmars) above Astoria Park. All of Ditmars - exactly to the river front - is nice.
