Have a friend that lives in MerHouse. 2b1b
Pretty nice place. Expensive. Nice gym amenities. Grocery on block.

I’ve visited Mercedes house. It’s very far from transportation

like

Used to live in Mercedes House. Personally didn’t like living on 10th/11th avenue — too far from the main streets.

It’s in the middle of nowhere. Not nowhere but very inconvenient

Mercedes is great if you don’t mind a very long walk to the closest subway and being in sort of a dead area. I would not recommend it for daily commuting or if you go out a lot. You’ll spend a lot on the apt and then on cabs on tops

So I had 3 deals scheduled to either close end of May or mid June which were all pushed to end of June/beginning of July.

I’m running one of the deals, semi running the other one and not doing much leading on the other one. Note: I was supposed to not be running any of these. Do I find a back up first or tell the partners first?
