[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Native Manhattanite here: if he likes grilling and lawns so much, rent a beach house in the summer and he can come there on weekends. Buy a three-bedroom on the Upper East Side (in District 2). Good schools, lower taxes, lower commuter costs, and much, much, much shorter commute. We lived in the suburbs (Long Island) when we first moved to NYC in my childhood and were so much happier after moving to a much smaller apartment in Manhattan.[/quote] This this this this this [/quote] I vote for this too. Big apartment in the Upper East or West Side and country house in the Hudson Valley. Another thing nobody has mentioned so far is that CT is experiencing some sort of fiscal crisis right now and apparently property taxes are expected to rise substantially if they haven’t already. I don’t know the details but just wanted to flag it as a consideration.[/quote] I think there is some serious risk to buying property in the NY suburbs right now. [/quote]
