Consumers know best, so we looked at what StreetEasy users were circling and see some pretty nifty bang-for-the-buck deals in the New York City real estate market this week.
Below are the five most popular listings (based on saves), which have open houses this weekend. They range in price from $2.4 million down to $875K, but the one thing these condos and co-op units have in common is that they’re all smart picks for price and location. Let’s see why:
