Q: When is a $998K apartment considered an incredible bargain?
A: When the neighborhood median price for similar units is close to $1.2 million.
All kidding aside, New York real estate can appear daunting. Median prices of $1.82 million for condos and $820K for co-ops (all figures per CityRealty data) would appear to reinforce that impression. However, by looking closely and digging deep, there are some true steals to be found. The following apartments are located in highly coveted Manhattan and Brooklyn neighborhoods, listed for under $1 million, and come in well below the local median price.
