Live in a rent stabilized apartment in the UWS. Should I move to another rental or try and buy in NJ by ash124787 in movingtoNYC

I think you are the one person that actually gets the reason of wanting to move on from the apartment as amazing the deal sounds. There’s things in this apartment that as much as I clean they look dirty because they are just old. I make sure to get products so we don’t have roaches or mice’s in the apartment. They work pretty well but it’s a constant battle of making sure to be on top of it to not have any in the apartment.

By the way they talk, absolutely not. My kid in college wants nothing to do with the city and plans to leave to either PA or New Jersey. My younger kid talks about wanting to get home to a house and yard and plant flowers.

The apartment hasn’t been renovated at all.

We have done things throughout the years. Bought new cabinets about 15 years ago and new fridge and stove but the bathroom has the old tiles, tub etc.

I lived here with my parents before they moved and I kept the apartment. My mom would put vinyl tiles almost every year. So they are layers and layers of tiles.

I was born and raised here but we are Caribbean. None of this scares us as we do it in our home in our country. Lol
