					  <description><![CDATA[The following article is an excerpt from The Ultimate Guide to Buying and Selling Co-ops and Condos in New York City, a book I wrote that was designed to be the ultimate guide: a good overview of what you need to know about buying and selling co-ops and condos in New York City; a reference guide to walk you through the specifics of each stage of the process; a guide to pertinent terminology; and an introduction to the basics of real estate investing. ]]></description>

					  <description><![CDATA[Beyond collecting monthly maintenance payments, co-ops and condos are always searching for creative methods of generating discretionary income. Renting out excess parking areas and installing storage lockers for rental are two ways to boost the reserve fund, but the proliferation of cell phones, broadband, paging, wireless web, and related technologies makes leasing rooftop space for antenna installation another highly profitable option.]]></description>

					  <description><![CDATA[There will always be those who insist that if they can&#146;t live in Manhattan, they would rather not live in New York City at all. They feel that Manhattan is the one true New York and that the outer boroughs are remote hinterlands barely fit for human habitation. ]]></description>

					  <description><![CDATA[Is the entryway of your building looking less than inviting these days? Perhaps the lobby isn&#146;t as cozy and welcoming as residents might like, or maybe it&#146;s the mailroom that needs some work. If it&#146;s been years since the last time your common areas were updated, and they&#146;re showing their age, it might be time to consider sprucing them up a bit.]]></description>

					  <description><![CDATA[&quot;It&#146;s very special to have outdoor space in Manhattan. It&#146;s so valuable,&quot; says Madelyn Simon, CEO of Madelyn Simon Associates, that specializes in interior and exterior plantscapes. Simon&#146;s past projects have included landscaping the butterfly vivarium at the American Museum of Natural History and decking out World Financial Center for the holidays. In or out of the city, open-air space designed for people to enjoy year-round adds enormously to the pleasure residents take in their home. Plus, investing in landscaping and building exteriors can add to the perceived value and desirability of a property.]]></description>

					  <description><![CDATA[It&#146;s not that your lobby looks bad. It&#146;s just that the mirrored light
fixtures and orange trim that seemed so stylish in the (original) days of Abba
and flared slacks feels rather dated now. A renovation appears inevitable. How
should your board plan for the big overhaul? It doesn&#146;t have to be a traumatic
process. With the right amount of planning, renovations can run quite smoothly
with minimal upheaval and an undeniably attractive end result.
