Before you start shopping for an apartment in Manhattan, you must understand our unique housing market. New York City is unlike any place in the real estate universe.

As of month of January 2009, more than 75% of Home ownership in Manhattan New York City is in cooperative apartments. The rest are condominums, condops and townhouses. Most new construction developments are condomiums. Most pre-war apartments are co-ops. Manhattan apartments are either pre-war (WWII) or post -war (modern.) Most Townhouses or Brownstones were built in the 1900s.
