I have a 2bd/2ba in FiDi, luxury building, penultimate floor, 1300 sq ft. All brand new furnishings. Can have it furnished for only cost.
8k a month. Could flex the bedroom if too pricey.
I can’t PM you for some reason, but if that’s within your budget, message me.
8k a month?? What’s the average rent for this area
Rent fluctuates greatly depending not just on area, but the actual building itself.
8k is rough for a two bedroom, but I just got two applications this weekend.
I based the asking rent on what other similar apartments are currently rented for in my building. I think what allows me to ask for such a relatively high rent is the fact it is a newer building, white glove doorman and a very high floor. To be fair, most of my applicants are established professionals or DINKs, but in the pay I did rent to a junior banker who had a parent guarantor.
$8?!?!? Even if I was looking at my whole place it would only be $5 for the mortgage. 2BR, 1 BA Astoria, top (14th) floor views of the Hell's gate and 900SQFT.
I'm guesstimating a 7% mortgage.
For that apartment, my mortgage is over a million. It’s about 7k a month mortgage and escrow for taxes plus 1.6k a month for common charges.
So the 8k a month rent I’m getting doesn’t even cover everything for me.
Luckily, I just got a renter. She’s 35, but I made her dad sign as a guarantor.
