Discussion about

so we are paying $3700/m for a 2b/2br. time to renew. about the apt, good things: new appliances, washer/dryer, central air, 1000 sf., low 70's and columbus, elevator, rent stablized. bad things: VERY poor soundproof (both interior and exterior. although got used to it somewhat but still it's quite annoying), no gym. basically it's a poor quality low rise building in a good neighborhood with good stuff thrown in. where would you see this priced at? thanks.

State of bathrooms? That's a good school zone. I think they could find someone to rent it for that.

Did you check either nybits.com or urbansherpany.com for rental price comparables in your area?

Would you consider this a comparable apartment?

A similar apartment in our building in low 80's rents for $4900 - I would stay put.

lobster, thanks for the links. I would say the second one on w77th is more comparable given its location. it seems to have a good size and good exposure. has a doorman. interesting that the ask was raised by $100.
