Guy down the street from my brother sold his house in a day, from pictures on line, for the asking price of over $1,000,000.

Buyer was from NYC.

Anyone on FR, that is from Long Island, north of the city, SW Connecticut, and north Jersey, knows that folks from NYC are buying houses, sight unseen. Showing up with nothing more than their clothes. Leaving their furniture behind. Bidding wars happening everywhere as folks are bailing out

Some buildings in NYC are about 10% occupied.

In Sullivan and Ulster county, the liberals from NYC will soon be driving the locals out of their homes due to rising costs.

So…..Who’s buying their places in NYC? Are they just walking away from them? Is anyone still paying the taxes?

Down in semi-rural NC, we have people from Michigan flooding in. Buying houses, don’t care, $20,000+ over asking.

This is amazing.

Absolutely NO car traffic. These streets, up until very early 2020, were bumper to bumper car traffic. Sidewalks were packed and you had to squeeze through crowds.

THIS is scary.

I just read that NYC bankers are begging to be transferred to FL.

Who is left in NYC?? Hotel workers?

The only people I see on the streets, in this video, look like tourists.

It doesn’t look like this vid has been edited. Would love to know the local’s take.

Wow. Here in the Poconos houses are selling like hotcakes as well. Lots of New Yorkers.
