Money Downer
A neighbor just approached me to ask if he should buy the unit he is renting in our condominium. I told him the building is great, but the board is not effective and the management company is even worse.
I added that there is mush work to be done and that in NYC everything is done by the book.
Also, my daughter Sabrina is an interior decorating expert and she has taught me a thing or two. Here my suggestions to hire a contractor, while keeping your budget sanity and costs under control. Lets hope you do not get stuck in a money pit.
