Q. I have two young boys who do what boys do: Run around a lot, play with their toys, occasionally yell or cry, nothing out of the ordinary though.
After my downstairs neighbor complained, my husband and I put rugs throughout most of the apartment. My neighbor complains frequently to the co-op board, most recently asking them to evict us by terminating our proprietary lease.
Can we really be evicted over this? Is there any chance she would win?
So it’s been months, and your apartment still hasn’t sold? Here are some possible explanations and suggested approaches:
1. It’s overpriced.
There is no single strategy for how to handle this.
BrickUnderground is extremely pleased to announce the relaunch and expansion of our Agent Referral Service, designed to take the Russian Roulette out of finding a good New York City real estate agent.
The basic premise remains the same: Rather than find an agent by clicking on a random apartment ad or walking into the nearest brokerage, you can ask to be matched with one from our small, curated network of Manhattan and Brooklyn agents.
Not that we're counting, but since BrickUnderground launched in 2009, we've published nearly 2,000 posts, including hundreds of tips and insights on buying, selling, and renting a NYC apartment. It has been an incremental voyage of discovery toward creating NYC's richest repository of practical real estate advice and firsthand experience.
