Saving up for a New York City apartment is a substantial goal, given the median condo price of $2.08 million and co-ops at $840K. Regardless of whether you're an all-cash buyer or getting a mortgage, monthly carrying costs are crucial. High payments can impact your debt-to-income ratio, affecting your eligibility for co-op board approval or a lender's requirements. Missing payments can lead to lawsuits and, in co-ops, potential eviction.
In co-ops, all shareholders pay maintenance fees, which are determined by your apartment's size. They cover property taxes, underlying mortgages, building insurance, and often utilities. These fees also handle common upkeep such as landscaping and pest control, plus building staff salaries and additional services, resulting in higher fees for buildings with more staff and services.

Condo buildings have tenants paying common charges, covering similar expenses but excluding property taxes. While common charges are often lower than co-op fees, combined with taxes, they may surpass co-op maintenance fees. Charges are set based on unit size and, in some cases, location.
For those seeking lower carrying costs, the listings below feature relatively low maintenance fees or common charges. All have upcoming open houses and prospective buyers must schedule an appointment before attending.
