Both must be bargains; both sold.

I guess it goes against the grain of the losers on this forum who keep waiting for the "bubble to burst". They don't realized the bubble never bursts in Manhattan. Keep waiting! LOL!

Most likely the Flatiron one. Anything called a "Great Room" must be worth spending over $1 mill on.

May I just say that there is something that feels a bit crazy about spending $1 million on a studio? Okay, glad I got that out.

The studio at 15 Union Square West is a maids room or guest suite only purchasable by an owner of an apartment in the building.

"The studio at 15 Union Square West is a maids room or guest suite only purchasable by an owner of an apartment in the building. "

how lax are boards generally to turn a blind eye, assuming no other owner in the building wants it for their "maid."

It appears the property at 15 Union Square sold for $488K, not >$1M.

"assume for a 30 yo single nephew who may start a family but is probably gay." I don't quite follow the relevance, but I find the guidance to be quite funny.

Hilarious -- the OP is too cheap to pay and has trouble with math.

does it have to do with it being restricted only current owners for maid's room?

first one seems to have closed at $999,921..

...is there a feature on this thing to limit to maid room searches? yes im cheap

ss400k: Help us understand your objectives. You're all over the place - starting off with asking which unit we prefer and shifting to finding studios which are reserved for maids.

Are you looking to buy a studio for your gay nephew? And your budget is around $1M despite being cheap? And you'd like to get in the best building you can, but now you are discovering some studios are reserved for residents and their maids? So you're trying to figure out how to get around a building's board to buy a studio which has these restrictions?

Where is this going? Help us help you.

Or are you the gay nephew with an aunt or uncle who is about to buy you an apartment with a budget of $1M? And you want to be in a killer building that only has studios available in that price range? So you asked us to help you pick? But now you see a hurdle which is the maids room dilemna?

Trying to make sense of this thread.

I guess it goes against the grain of the idiots on the board who don't realize the bubble has already burst...
