disgusting. they raise it 6% every year and then take our MFH housing vouchers to charge ANOTHER maintenance in middle of year

oh yeah don't forget the eternal "one-time charges" that stick around forever

I just bought a studio in Manhattan. Coops actually charge less than condos in Manhattan, that's where u got even more theft.

it depends on the coop honestly. the more "prestige" buildings charge enough that you're basically paying a more refined form of rent

I'm talking about regular buildings, comparable condo (fee+tax) is higher. My building is not the cheapest just because there are only 4 Apts per floor and most Apts have balconies. But even if u take the cheapest buildings in nyc maintenance+tax is significant enough that as a piedaterre it makes much more sense to buy in europe.
