Looking to buy a studio in NYC (~600k). How low should I go below asking price when making an offer (especially given that the price went down 5% two months ago)? I’m thinking 15% below asking. Location is okay, no view, and a month to month renter in place. Thoughts?

Hi, amateur question. Is there any difference tax wise on letting an option expire vs sell for nothing? I assume both are tax losses that you can compensate with gains in other options right? TIA

What is everyone’s take on the NYC housing market? More people and businesses are moving out. I’d imagine it has to continue to dip. Also, they’re considering turning adding more units by converting commercial space into residential space. Inventory is going to be through the roof for rentals. I’d think that has to ultimately impact home prices.

Trying to understand all the steps, traps, and how to find if it’s a good investment.

I had very positive feedback on my interviews for a S&O role but the team hired someone internally. If I interview again for a differenr role, would I have to do all the interviews again or can I use some of the scores from previous interviews. I understand doing RRK again makes sense but what about GCA, googlyness or leadership . Thank you

I’m planning on getting my real estate license this spring! My biggest hesitation is that I currently live downtown Chicago and do not own a car. I really do not want to buy or lease a car as the area I live in requires a garage spot to park. Is it realistic to believe that I can be a real estate agent in Chicago if I rely on Uber/CTA?!
