My old sh***y 2 bedroom rental in the East Village with less than 500 sq. feet of space, in a poorly maintained tenement building with no amenities other than a common deck for garbage, is now back on the market at a shocking $3200 a month.
Socal, what 2 bedroom / 2 bath apt. can you find for $2000 a month in Manhattan?

Wow I rent out my place on 42 Main 1330 sq ft. w/ a 15sq ft terrace for $3500.00. At least I can sleep at night since I’m not robbing people blind.

Socal, the problem is you still think people living in Brookyln have no choice because they can’t afford Manhattan. Believe it or not, some people actually Choose to live in Brooklyn. I lived in Manhattan for year’s and decided to make the switch to Brooklyn because I love the vibe and wanted a change… and I have no desire to move back. As for the price tag of a rental in dumbo… I wouldn’t pay $4000 for anything I don’t own… even in Manhattan, but that’s just me.

Peter,
Collecting way below market rent helps you sleep at night? You need to get out of the landlord business. Become a social worker.
