Is it silly to think rent prices may decline and broker fees might start getting waived again? A lot of firms pushing back return to office dates with the delta variant. Have been looking at apartments in NYC but now wondering if I should hold off for a bit.

I don’t think we’ll see the same level of decreases / deals. NYC likely won’t fully lockdown as it did last year. People will want to be here for the city even if their offices aren’t opening.

But still think a bit lower than what we’ve seen that last few weeks?

I think it’s definitely possible but everything about this has been impossible to predict so 🤷🏻‍♀️

Fair enough! I’ve never signed a lease in NYC, either so I don’t have a ton of familiarity around typical pricing but I do know a lot of the summer incentives have started wearing off and prices are nearly back to normal for the most part

I’m in the same position, except Chicago and I’m fully remote for time being. I think I’m going back to Mexico before signing an expensive lease in the US.

@D1 I put all my stuff in storage in January and have been living out of a suitcase either in Mexico or my parents house. They absolutely love the company. And I didn’t tell my previous company, and won’t tell my current company either.

Absolutely - people are not moving back until next year. We’ll see some good incentives in the next few months. Plus delta variant is going to mutate again at this rate

Love the confidence. My lease just ran out so I moved my stuff to my parents for the time being, originally with the intention of signing a September 1st lease in the city but thinking about just hanging tight for a bit.

Moved back with parents since last September after my lease ended and still waiting and see🙈

This is just further enforcing the landlords to continue to hold inventory off the market

Oh I’m so sorry my move-in date is affecting the entire apartment market. I’ll be sure to ship up to NYC ASAP
