j-condo-rental-0109.jpgWhile we haven’t heard a lot of groaning yet about the rental market (in fact news has been relatively good compared to Manhattan), eager owners are starting to do some tap-dancing for prospective renters. To wit: The J Condo is offering one month of free rent to anyone willing to sign up for a $2,400-a-month studio, according to this listing on Craigslist. Other incentives you’ve heard about? GMAP

  1. Santa, I meant more that it was “shit” than “cheap” in the sense of low priced. I’m sure it’s not low priced at all, and not a deal of any sort. All that 4 & 5 floor walk up crap in that neighborhood.

  2. Thanks christopher, I’ve been in the neighborhood for 2 years but don’t want to leave. I don’t believe that I can find your contact info through this site, could you possibly email me (my username @ gmail)? Appreciate you reaching out-

  3. im looking for a 2 bedroom in the park slope area and there seems to be alot for around 2200. Also the it seems that alot of cheap shit is on craigslist for the east village.

  4. I was a realtor in Manhattan in 2002. Back then all the newer lux buildings, and a lot of the older high end buildings as well, were doing the free rent thing (some were giving 2 months free, some were paying brokers fee, some were doing both).

    I hated being a realtor….
    … so glad I got out of that.

    I agree, though, $2000+ for a studio is nuts. Especially that close to the pj’s.

    fishermb, if you don’t find a place drop me a line in a March/April or so. My family has places in the Heights.
