NYU, Cardozo, New School & Parsons: Plenty of time to complete a family purchase of this home and be there for the start of the Fall 2024 Semester but the clock is ticking... Math & Statistics working towards home ownership: If you were going to rent a 24-hour full-service door attendant studio in the heart of Greenwich village, you would be looking @ approximately $3500 per month and that is on the conservative side. Yearly, that equates to $42,000. You multiply that by four (4) years, and you have $168,000. For an extra $257,000, you own it. This formula has been prevalent & enormously successful in my personal experience for many families over my 34 years of sales experience in this building. Supply & Demand: There are 420 units here @ 24 Fifth Avenue. This is one of only a few studios available for sale here. That is approximately 1% availability.
