Real Estate Resources | Buyer & Seller Guides

This is the Manhattan Miami resource library: every buyer guide, seller guide, cost breakdown, and market analysis we publish, organized in one place. Start with the guide that matches your situation, then use the linked market data and neighborhood tools to go deeper. Each resource is written by the Manhattan Miami advisory team and updated for the current market.

Where should a NYC buyer start?

If you are buying an apartment in New York for the first time, or the first time in a while, these two guides cover the full path from search to closing:

• The Home Buying Process: every stage in order, from financial preparation through closing day.
• Buying an Apartment in NYC: condos vs co-ops, board approval, financing, and how Manhattan deals actually get done.

To choose where to buy, open the Manhattan Neighborhood Map: an interactive map of twenty neighborhoods, each linked to current listings and a dedicated guide.

What does it cost to buy and own here?

Purchase price is only the headline number. These resources break down what buyers actually pay:

• Cost Components of a Real Estate Investment: closing costs, carrying costs, and the line items that affect net returns.
• NYC vs Miami Closing Costs: how the two markets differ on transfer taxes, mansion tax, and title.
• The NYC to Miami Tax Migration: what changing your primary residence actually changes, and what it does not.

What should international buyers read first?

Non-U.S. buyers face one issue that domestic buyers do not: U.S. estate tax exposure on U.S. property. Read these before you structure a purchase:

• U.S. Estate Tax for Foreign Buyers: the $60,000 exemption, ownership structures, and the insurance alternative.
• How International Buyers Purchase U.S. Luxury Real Estate: the full capital deployment framework for NYC and Miami.

Where can I see current market data?

Our flagship data resource is the Manhattan Condo Market Analysis: pricing, inventory, absorption, and neighborhood trends, refreshed continuously. For new construction, see the NYC new development pipeline and Miami pre-construction coverage.

Prefer to talk it through?

Guides answer the general questions. Your situation is specific: timing, tax posture, financing, and the buildings that actually fit. Begin with a conversation and a principal will reply personally.
