[@holtrealestate]

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed the video

[@davidkilmer5268]

Great video. Informative, thank you

[@holtrealestate]

Glad to hear David. I'm going to insert a neighborhood guide in the comment section and pin it to the top

That 3 bed apartment looks amazing

😍😍

[@anitahenriquez2082]

The Q line is fantastic for getting to Broadway and theaters!

[@holtrealestate]

Game changer!!

[@TrainsFerriesFeet]

Thanks for the info; I'll be moving to the City when I retire in a couple of years and the UES is definitely a consideration.

[@holtrealestate]

Glad the video was helpful! I will add a link to the UES neighborhood guide where you can find stats, what to expect, properties for sale and more. I'll also be coming out with more videos and adding them to the Upper East Side playlist. One will be a comparison between the Upper West and Upper East which I think you'll find very helpful. If theres anything you need feel free to reach out anytime! livingnewyork.com/neighborhoods/upper-east-side

The UES is definitely a great neighborhood, but I would strongly consider somewhere in Brownstone brooklyn as well if I was looking to retire in NYC. You get the same level of lovey histric architecture, you're the same distance from lower Manhattan, but the bulidings are smaller, the streets are quieter and at least in my experience there tends to be more community.

[@waccamatt7533]

@@jimbo1637 I prefer Manhattan. I'll be "retired" from my long term career, but I'm still going to work.

[@jimbo1637]

@@waccamatt7533 makes sense!

[@kaspar_1982]

In my opinion you can never go wrong living 2 blocks either side of the park from 59th street to the museums, 50 years ago, or 50 years from now. I spent my summers growing up at 20w 64th and in my own apartment in my 20s. my only regret in life was not keeping my fathers apartment when my brother gave it up under rent control, i'd be paying 900 a month and the last middle class person left in the city.

[@holtrealestate]

Ah yes rent control apts are so rare. Its a crazy time to rent here too. Right now is the lowest vacancy since the 60's and the rental rates set a record this year. Prices have fallen a lot for sales but still expensive. Its a good investment play for those who have the cash to play. You are right about location, the premium areas are west of Lexington but quite expensive.

[@kaspar_1982]

@@holtrealestate I retired at 50 and after traveling extensively for 10 years i find myself at 60 in good physical shape but priced out of a return to NYC. my sweet spot would be a townhouse between riverside and the park within short walking distance of Zabar's. and so i must live in exile at the beach in summer and the desert in winter on the west coast with only short visits to the city that never sleeps. the center of the known universe.

[@holtrealestate]

@@kaspar_1982 Sounds like an amazing routine. If you ever are curious about renting or buying here just lmk! Glad to help you weight things out and send over options. Wheres your top 3 favorite places you traveled? I know its hard to pick Im sure!

[@erhs79]

the upper east side is a DREAM ..... All PROS !!!!!!!!

[@holtrealestate]

Lol I love it there too

[@jameshicks6435]

Transportation is the biggest con about the UES, in my opinion. It's the #1 reason I'd never consider living in that area.

[@holtrealestate]

Noted! Which area do you like most in NYC?

[@stevieg6418]

Get a taxi dude...

[@terrymorganfairchild8944]

Michael I've got two days in NYC after I've been to The Met and The Guggenheim where to next ?

[@holtrealestate]

Ooo if you like museums theres also the Frick in the UES and of course Museum of Natural History, Moma... Other than these its rooftop season. I'd definitely go to one of those! Here is a link to a list I made, enjoy! maps.app.goo.gl/jASx9Xm4mCLF5KeS9

[@tgraves12]

Can you show Riverdale?

[@holtrealestate]

Its a little far from me but I'll make my way there eventually!

[@stephenssloggett1320]

Do some billionaire row reviews 😅like Steinway tower Central Park tower etc

[@holtrealestate]

Will do!

[@websterfenoff8936]

Promo sm 😌

[@superdonk9891]

Great video, but you need to work on the sound, music is to loud compared to your voice. ;)

[@holtrealestate]

Thanks for the feedback! This was actually my 2nd video I've edited! Curious to your thoughts on some of my new ones! Heres a more recent kzbin.info/www/bejne/i6qblINne8Skh68

[@sashalee8132]

the lot tax of that town house is 10,000 US dollar per month????? I don't understand this math, who the hell can afford such high tax???It does not make any sense...

[@holtrealestate]

Actually it is an apartment! The taxes are $4,742 and building charges $5,115. In NY monthlies are certainly amongst the most expensive in the country!

[@hankfrydman2165]

With respect maybe under 5 minutes

[@maxinef6654]

Nice looking guy. 👀😍

[@holtrealestate]

😊

[@ARYOUNGvideo]

Why is older apartments a con? No one wants new apartments. Thats why the UES is so expensive.

[@holtrealestate]

I was referring to apartments that need renovations. I for one love the older pre-war style with all the character that’s been well kept or needs some light updating!

[@hankfrydman2165]

Too long

[@holtrealestate]

Thanks for the feedback! This was my second video and that's the first thing I realized that they were long besides the chapters. My goal is to keep them under 10 min now. My newer videos are a bit shorter 👍

[@brianog5267]

Quite enjoyed this video…would love to see some lower priced properties as well for we mere mortals!

[@holtrealestate]

@@brianog5267 Lol I'll include lower price points on my next videos I film!
