Alissa is relocating to NYC from California, and Victoria (who I moved into Perry Street a few months back) recommended she come to me for her apartment hunt! We set out to find her a one bedroom under $2000 in the West Village or the Upper West Side. We saw 4 in the West Village that kept getting better and better, and then headed to the UWS to see if she liked that vibe. Once we got of the subway near the Museum of Natural History, it was pretty clear that the UWS was nice, but not as good a match as the West Village.
So she loved this one near Abingdon Square, but she wanted to see something else in the same part of the West Village to compare. Unfortunately, there just weren’t any more under 2K there–but there was one for 2300 with one month free!
So we headed there…HOLY COW!!! Huge, brand new renovations, awesome block, gorgeous and sunny!! But, there were at least 2 other parties there too!! We raced back to my office to complete the application, and I then RAN to the landlord’s office to claim it!! YESSS, we totally beat out the competition and scored the HOT apartment! Yay!
Congratulations and WELCOME TO NYC Alissa!!
You give me hope! This apartment search is worse than a roller coaster, my poor blood pressure. I can’t wait to meet next week and see what you have in store.
