So, barely a week after deciding it was prudent of me to call off my search for a new apartment I found out my "dream" digs are (dig is?) not only still on the market, but the price has been lowered. Granted, it's not down to my low-ball offer from a month ago. But a second property of theirs that was originally priced the same as the one I wanted is now within $95 of my bid, which definitely indicates they're heading in the right direction. To complicate matters -- confession time -- I still haven't mailed in my lease renewal. My brother suggested I send them a note saying my offer is still good. The place isn't rent stabilized (like my current digs), but it is everything else. (Did I mention the granite countertops, the breakfast bar and the endless closet space -- or the prewar fabulousness of it all????) I'm really confused -- again.Thursday, April 23, 2009
Twist in My Economic Sobriety

Looks like my old bldg 300 w21st. Could it be?
JUST RENT IT for God's Sake... when are you gonna find a chance like this in your lifetime? You and your partner deserve it...
OMG, is that on West 21st Street?
I agree w/ Alberto, just throw a little caution to the wind & rent the place. Everything happens for a reason, and it seems like the Universe keeps giving you chances to rent this place...that sounds a little "meant to be" in my opinion. Change is always scary & nothing worth having is without risk. As my mother used to say "sometime you just have to say 'f**k it!""
If it's got enough room for me to crash with you, GET IT!!
