Math & Statistics working towards home ownership: If you were going to rent a 24-hour full-service door attendant studio in the heart of Greenwich village, you would be looking @ approximately $3500 per month and that is on the conservative side. Yearly, that equates to $42,000. You multiply that by four (4) years, and you have $168,000. For an extra $257,000, you own it. This formula has been prevalent & enormously successful in my personal experience for many families over my 34 years of sales experience in this building.
Supply & Demand: There are 420 units here @ 24 Fifth Avenue. This is one of only a few studios available for sale here. That is approximately 1% availability. This is a prolific example of how homeowners @ 24 5th Avenue are reluctant to relinquish their stake in this Classic Prewar building.
Presenting 24 5th Avenue-Apartment#712. If value is what you are looking for, you will be impressed by some of the details of this unique offering.

Many New Yorkers refer to this small area of Greenwich Village as the Gold Coast with good reason.
