This is a fantastic opportunity for someone with a long term view who sees opportunity in the correction New York City is experiencing right now and who agrees with Jerry Seinfeld’s opinion on Manhattan being the greatest place on earth:
“ When I got my first apartment in Manhattan in the hot summer of 1976, there was no pooper-scooper law, and the streets were covered in dog crap.
I signed the rental agreement, walked outside, and my car had been towed. I still thought, “This is the greatest place I’ve ever been in my life.” “
If that resonates with you, we need to talk!
