Maison 78 Review in NYC - June 2025

I am writing this review to give others a real update on this property.

Pros: This is a brand new building that is beautiful and has great views from almost all sides. Courteous staff and great appliances inside the apartment with a lot of amenities like a garage, shared work space, nice gym, dog area and Lennox hill which has a ton restaurants.

Cons: (A lot of them) - For this price the apartment is nice but not the street it is on. Since there are a lot of restaurants the trash is rampant ,i mean all over the place on 78th street between 1st and 2nd.

  • Rats are everywhere when you walk up 78th from 1st to 2nd due to the trash (bad smell too)

  • Amenities- They claim they will be done in June (they said this May), they wont be done until September or maybe even November they have a ton of work to do. (This includes all amenities other than the Gym which is done but nothing else looks even remotely close to being done)

  • No Keys - You have to use a fob to open the doors

  • Elevator - due to all the construction they only have one elevator for the entire building that you have to cal the front desk to use, very inconvenient.

  • It's a lottery building for rent control and tax savings so while you are paying full price price others got to get in using this lottery for rent control and PAYING 1/3 of what they are asking for in price now.

TLDR: Nice building but trash, rats and smell is pretty bad for the price you are paying and the lack of amenities and all the construction. I will be looking to move in a year when my lease comes up, if I would have known this I would not have rented here at this price point.

North Carolina – “One to Buy; Two to Sell”

I realize I will likely have to contact a real estate attorney but also hoping to hear insights and experiences from others! I have a house in NC that I bought by myself in 2009, and paid off, in full, in 2022. I got married in 2023. My spouse and I have not lived in the house as our "marital residence". We have maintained separate residences even after we got married. (That a separate topic!). I am now selling this house. Realtors have told us that my husband has to sign the deed at time of transfer but I am not convinced since the house has not been our marital residence. The realtors like to use the phrase "one to buy; two to sell", which seems like a broad-stroke statement which is not applicable under all circumstances. And of course, the realtors don’t realize the details of my specific circumstances: I purchased and paid for the house in full prior to marriage Only my name is on the deed And most importantly, we have never lived in the house as a marit...

Making offers on houses not listed for sale.

I want to buy a home for retirement. I am looking at lots of options, mostly focusing on the locations that appeal to me. I see lots of Zillow estimates of homes that look like great deals to me. Are these estimates accurate, even though similar houses in the same area that are for sale are usually priced much higher? If so, is it realistic for me to try to make offers to owners that do not have their homes listed? Would a realtor even consider helping me do this? Or, do these values indicate that the houses listed for sale are overpriced, and I should just lowball until someone accepts? Are houses today tending to sell far below list prices, or ??? submitted by /u/chewybrian [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/RealEstate/comments/1o4mcon/making_offers_on_houses_not_listed_for_sale/
