Thoughts on buying or renting an apartment in Washington Heights?
The cost of buying is of course lower than the rest of Manhattan. This is one of the last parts of Manhattan that isn't insanely expensive to buy in. The rents of course are less expensive. Logistics aren't exactly like the Village, but they work for me doing the reverse commute to NJ.
From an investment standpoint, there could be a lot of growth. Living wise, I imagine I would be spending a lot of time in taxis and the subway heading to downtown.
This neighborhood has come along way. It was a mess the first time I saw it in the 90s. I have seen neighborhoods in New York come along way like certain parts of BK. I know people who made investments in such areas before they were hot spots. I am interested in the opinions of guys who have lived in NYC for awhile or who have experience buying here.
Vaun and Clint Barton, your thoughts would be appreciated.
