This is a coop and the subletting policy is fairly standard. One year of residence, then two years of possible subletting to an approved tenant. No more than 2 years subletting out of every five.2) There will be pictures, but this apt will not sell on pictures. The block, the building and the neighborhood are what is of most value here. As you can see from the floorplan it is a ""cozy? studio, and while there are windows in kitchen, bath and main room, none have any view.The buyer for this apt will recognize that this is a great place to invest in NYC and have a place to live that will cost less than rent while they hopefully build equity for the future."
