From left to right: 322 West 57th St. Apartment 30B2; 322 West 57th St. Apartment 45M1
|
These two condos are both on high floors of a new conversion, with nearly the same square footage. Apartment 30B2 looks west toward the Hudson, whereas 45M1 has views of Central Park. But does that—and an extra half bath—account for a $330,000 price difference? Hardly. No, the discount is for patience. The listing broker for 30B2, Astrid Pillay of Halstead Property, says the unit’s definitely available for sale—but not for move-in. A tenant is living there, with a lease that pays $84,000 in rent per year to the (current or future) owner, and is expected to stay until May 2010. If you can’t wait and have an extra third of a million dollars ready to go, 45M1 is ready for a new owner immediately.
