    Thank you for sharing. Since it's a new construction why did they install mini-splits and baseboard heat rather than traditional hvac with duct? Is it a new trend around nyc or because it's preferred by Asians and they are the targeted buyers? By the way, great to see you hanging out with your mom and seeing her in the video. It's a good reminder that I need to catch-up with my parents. 😉

    Thanks for the open house tour. 👍
    Nice all-brick exterior construction home.👌
    Agreed, this is a terrible investment for anyone seeking to build or preserve wealth.👎 An approximate 15k carrying cost with 25% down is not sustainable. The rental income will not offset the cost.
    Is it a common design for modern detached homes in NYC to have separate/external access between the main and second floors, electric baseboard heaters (forced air noted in the brochure)?

    What you get for $2.2M in NYC? High taxes, lousy weather, migrants, the mentally ill and drug addicts on the streets, violence and property crimes, police who can't enforce the law, etc.

      NYC taxes are lower than surrounding suburbs and in most of Northeast. Weather is nice apart from a couple inches of snow in Winter and a little humidity in Summer. I'd trade it over Florida, the Carolinas and the increasingly hot and arid Southwest. Mentally ill and homeless drug addicts, a blight in any community, are not as omnipresent as certain news outlets would have you believe. Come visit, you may be surprised.

      @@JohnBogle286 welcome to America!! Of course the two areas look and feel feel different. The population density of NYC is 6 times that of Nassau Co., and 20 times that of your sister county to the east. A high population density has a concomitant high density of social problems. Likewise, I'm sure parts of Kentucky may feel alien to a Yankee from Nassau but Kentuckians may cast an eye of derision your way when they hear that discordant irksome accent. Then again, Long Island would probably look and feel like Kentucky without the economic engine of NYC. For the most part Long Island is bland and endlessly boring.
