142 W 49th St
New York, NY 10019

3 Mitchell Plaze

Neighborhood: Manhattan/Manhattan Valley

2207 Broadway and 390 West End Avenue

Surrey Suite Hotel
Neighborhood: Manhattan/Upper East Side

20 E 76th St
New York, NY 10021

Seamus M. writes: I like the Upper East Side, you can feel the money as if it is in the tap water. The streets are clean and safe and the park is right outside your door. I would live in this neighborhood but I don't have the $500,000 a year job to pull that off.

Neighborhood: Manhattan/Midtown East

950 3rd Ave Fl 24
New York, NY 10022

Neighborhood: Manhattan/Lower East Side

177 Ludlow St Apt 2C
New York, NY 10002

730 Columbus Ave
New York, NY 10025

460 Park Ave S
New York, NY 10016

Kimberly Hotel
Neighborhood: Manhattan/Midtown East

145 E 50th St
New York, NY 10022

Knoll Gardens

Mara Rd
Lake Hiawatha, NJ 07034

Stacey B. writes: This is a good apartment complex. It's huge, so there's usually an opening at any given time. The staff maintain the complex well -- keep it well-lit, lawns mowed; just when the bushes become too huge for you to walk past, they trim them. The…

37 3rd Ave
New York, NY 10003

Lara R. writes: I can't say enough positive things about Citi Habitats. Sure, it's not cheap to have a broker. But neither is it cheap to move... and after having moved once into Mahattan, I hope a lot of time passes before I feel the need to do so again. Not fun.…

2112 Broadway
New York, NY 10023

Washington Mutual

192 Smith Street
Brooklyn, NY 11201

95 Horatio St
New York, NY 10014

Scott S. writes: NO FEE APARTMENTS!

Jersey City, NJ 07306

Neighborhood: Manhattan/SoHo

580 Broadway
Ste 1013
