What to check before choosing an affordable building in Manhattan
- Expect market-relative affordable options, not income-restricted housing.
- Confirm any extra fees and restrictions before signing a lease.
- Look for details on broker fees, utilities, and deposits in addition to asking rent.
- Make sure to verify pet policies, if applicable, as they can vary widely.
- Research building ratings and reviews from current and past tenants.
