DISTRICTS
Manhattan is one of the five boroughs of the City of New York (the other four were Bronx, Queens, Brooklyn and Staten Island), the main part of it being the island of Manhattan, an area of 58.8 km2, surrounded by the Hudson River to the west, the East River on the East, the Upper New York Bay on the South, and the Harlem River on the North.
The legendary Fifth Avenue, a major city is the limit between the East and the West side of Mahattan.

PURCHASE PROCESS
While the stock exchange market is still showing proofs of weakness, the U.S. real estate is more than ever attracting investors from whole over the world; and New York is as usual the place where being an owner gives more security on the mid/long term. The rules are different in New York City than in the rest of the State or the country, and it is important to be accompanied by brokers that know and understand where you come from, and help you achieve the goal of purchasing a property! Different does not mean more complicate. And this guide is meant to help you understand the main specificities of this particular market. Your Barnes agent will always be happy to help you better understand the market, the type of property that fits you the best, in what location, at what price, etc. And of course, our main mission remains to get you the best deals you have the right to expect.
