[quote=Anonymous]My studio in Tribeca now rents for 4500-5000 a month. But, I was a fool and rented a penthouse apartment in a 53 story building. Yes. It had a doorman and amenities, like an onsite laundry, gym, pool, sundeck and a few other things. You can live quite well in NYC for 200k. Start up costs can be high, since renters may be required to pay a broker fee. Usually about 15% of a year's rent. So in addition to the security deposit, first/last months' rent for a 2k apartment, your looking at a broker fee of 3600 dollars. So, try to find "no fee" apartments or unadvertised apartments (ask the doorman).[/quote]
