Schedule a Call NowIn a co-op, you buy shares in a corporation that owns the building. In a condo, you own your unit outright. Co-ops are typically cheaper but have stricter approval processes. I'll help you understand which is right for your situation.
Co-ops typically require 20-25% down (some require more). Condos can go as low as 10-15% down with the right financing. I'll connect you with lenders who know NYC requirements.
Budget 2-5% of purchase price for closing costs including attorney fees, title insurance, and various taxes. Mansion tax (1-3.9%) applies to purchases over $1M. I'll give you a complete cost breakdown.
Having your own agent is strongly recommended — I'll negotiate on your behalf and help you avoid costly mistakes. Buyer agent commission is typically paid by the seller, so my services cost you nothing out of pocket.
