We are probably going to get married soon. Either way, a lawyer is drawing up an agreement to split it 50/50 if everything falls apart.

2 BDRM on 145th between St Nicholas and Edgecombe (Sugar Hill section of Harlem). It is big (for NYC @ the price), about 1300 square feet. Corner of the bldg, 8th story, and its on a hill so Living room has wide open view of YANKEE STADIUM (w00t). Bedrooms view is south, so you can see the whole city, pretty cool. Basically, the realtors didnt market it properly and they had to drop the price and we figured we got it for about 50,000 below market.

Subway ACBD, is right on the corner. 4 new condos being built within blocks, a 24 hr doorman, and a parking garage (4.23 ALL DAY! or monthly is like 150) in the building.

One thing, Needs major work but we have a contractor and a resotration painter in our respective families, so a total reno will be CHEAP (basically the materials and small fee for labor). Dont need to move in ASAP so Its cool.

From what little bit I know about the NYC housing market, sounds like you got a pretty good deal. I could be wrong. But congrats anyhow and it is definitely good that you have family members that will do work for you, big money saver there.

This sounds like a great apartment. Subway on Corner = CLUTCH.

Congrats.
