NYC Apartment Living is Great....

...except sometimes for the neighbors.

Living just steps from your neighbors is often a little too close for comfort. Especially in newer buildings with thin walls separating you from your privacy.
We frequently hear stories of residents that know how many times their neighbor has sneezed that day or worse, how many times they have gotten up at night to go to the bathroom.

Here are a few "favors" you may gets asked and if you do.....RUN!

Tristan and I are going away for the weekend. Would you mind looking in on Clover and Daisy?

Translation: Hopefully you are not allergic to cats and are ready to get scratched and bitten.

I heard you have done lots of work to the apartment. I would love to see what you have done with the space.

Translation: We live in the same line and just because you hired an architect doesn't mean I have to.

We are having a party on Friday night. Let us know if its gets too loud.

Translation: Earplugs, Ambien and Nyquil might be your best option if your are planning to sleep.

Ah Yes, Apartment living....its still better than the burbs!!!!
