For some New Yorkers, Madison Avenue represents the ultimate in luxury. Others find themselves drawn to the energy of downtown living. Either way, they're attracted to some of the most expensive areas in the city. However, it doesn't have to be that way. HDFC co-ops are not necessarily easy to find, but shouldn't be counted out as they offer the chance to live in a dream neighborhood for a fraction of the price. We've uncovered prime examples from Nolita to Washington Heights.
What is an HDFC Co-op?
HDFC units were created several decades ago as a way for tenants in poorly managed buildings to take control of the property and form cooperatives. The city sold these apartments to residents for a mere $250 a piece. Obviously they no longer trade for that price, but they do often sell for far less than what a comparable market rate unit in the same neighborhood would.Read More About HDFC Co-ops→
