New Media, Not Investors, Investing in Rentals. What?

NYC Luxury Condos - Media Investing in Rentals

New York City, ever known for taking the real estate and rental advice from the rest of America and throwing it out the window, is now going through a more unexpected demographic change. When we think of who actually rents luxury rentals, the first group that comes to mind is usually investment bankers, mainly those in their 20s and 30s who fill the tangled streets of Lower Manhattan early in the morning and seemingly beat rush hour both to and from work. That was true until recently, and while financiers still comprise the largest portion of renters, they no longer form the majority that they used to be. Instead, an eclectic tech-savvy generation has usurped traditional business, and in turn, the rental market.

Luxury Rentals Market Cools Down a Few Degrees

Luxury Manhattan Apartments - Rental Market Cools Down
Last week, Citi Habitats and Prudential Douglas Elliman released a second quarter report claiming that the Manhattan rental market was on fire, and things weren’t going to cool off any time soon. Rent prices were supposedly at an all-time high and weren’t expected to drop in the near future. This was music to every Manhattan landlord’s ears, but a punch in the gut (or wallet) to everyone searching for a luxury rental in Manhattan.

Mercedes House Revving Up for Its Opening As It Nears Completion

Mercedes House Luxury Apartments in New York CityThe Mercedes name conjures up images of luxury and grandeur. These same images that are associated with the car company are associated with Mercedes House, which gets its name from the fact that it houses the Mercedes-Benz of Manhattan showroom. It is safe to say that this is one of the few opportunities in Manhattan to live above a car showroom. Unfortunately, it will not be like Oprah, where everyone gets a free car, but there are many other reasons why this building is being talked about.

One of the more notable things about the Mercedes House is its interesting design. The building rises up with a step-like pattern, one section being a story higher than the next. At one end of the lot, the building turns and continues its step-like like ascent into the skies.

This spectacular rental condominium building in Clinton is nearing completion. There is only one section of the building that needs to be completed, but condominiums are already on the market. Mercedes House is one of the newest condominium buildings with luxury rental listings to hit the market in New York City. A truly unique building is a seemingly perfect fit for the unique city that is Manhattan.
