The ‘high life’. Good for you

[@fluffymuffi1]

Ha ha..I do live the "high" life because I live on the 18th floor of a 27 story building next door to this house. I look down into their backyard, and east to Central Park... but I don't live in a multi- million dollar brownstone like theirs. They do have an elevator but personally I'd hate to have to navigate stairs or even a slow private elevator to get from my bedroom to the kitchen. One thing I've learned from being in many multi- million dollar homes is that everyone just sits/ lives in one or two spots in their home no matter how large... the question is how much walking do you really want to do to get from one place to the other in your home. I've decided 10 seconds bedroom to kitchen... ha ha, not a cross country trek in a huge house! They actually sold this to move to a regular private house in a suburb probably just to get rid of the multiple levels of stairs...

So it’s a leasehold then? How would you need to have to pay a maintenance fee if you bought that property? Are you only buying part of the building???
