2,000 for a frickin' studio

 


Queens Post

The average price paid to nab a studio in Queens in June was over $2,000 per month, with the average for a one bedroom hitting $2,500 for the first time on record, according to a new report by the real estate firm M.N.S.

The average price paid for a studio was $2,045, up 12 percent from June 2021, according to the report. The average for a one bedroom was $2,500, up 16 percent from a year earlier, and the average cost of a two bedroom was $3,322, representing a 23 percent jump year-over-year.

Rental prices increased across the borough, although they skyrocketed in Astoria, Long Island City, Forest Hills and Jamaica, the report revealed. The report did not provide a breakdown for Sunnyside or Woodside.

The average price paid to snag an apartment in Astoria last month was up 32 percent compared to June 2021. In Long Island City, the average rent was up 28 percent from 12 months prior, while in Jamaica and Forest Hills it was up 21 percent and 16 percent respectively.

The red-hot Long Island City rental market shows no signs of cooling down.

It's so freaking sad. The government allowed this happen though. Overcrowding plus investors equals high rents and housing prices. Control the illegal immigration problem, get the investors out of the housing market and then maybe you can actually get to be affordable.

A YEAR OF DEMOCRATS' INFLATION FICTION
One year ago, Democrats/RINOS passed a partisan “COVID-19 relief” law, injecting $2 trillion of federal stimulus into the economy as it was already recovering.
Since then, Americans have seen inflation soar, including higher prices for household essentials like groceries and gas. In February, prices were up 7.9% from a year ago.
Democrats have spent the last year telling Americans one fiction after another about the inflationary effects of their reckless spending agenda.

And another plane full of illegals just landed! Joey "Open Borders" Biden is behind much of this. Though it's decades of open borders that have created the problem. There are TOO MANY PEOPLE in America. Oh, but it's going to get much, much, MUCH worse in the years ahead.

Yeah, let's tax corporations, that will lower the cost of goods.
Hay DemoRats, try restarting our energy independence, stop wasteful government spending, close the border, stop funding illegals, stop the nonsense and resign!

Is this part of the New Green Deal ?
When they said "we're going green", they actually meant Soylent Green. We should have read the fine print.

Maybe a first step to help the sheeple could be Crazy Nancy throwing an ice cream social. She’ll just have to keep her husband out of the liquor cabinet.

These Democrats in NY no longer reside in reality ! Something needs to be done, and I`m not trying to be funny. Our country is in big, big trouble. We had better not look to the ones that got us into this mess,to get us out of it. It`s time to vote the rascals out of office "All of Them",the corrupt money grubbing herd of swine they all are.

US Inflation Soars to 9.1%... BIDENOMICS!

In california they are offering 1050 $ checks for "inflation relief" . So getting relief from inflation is causing MORE inflation. Genius.

Nothing will be done by the government or local politicians to bring down so called "affordable housing"rents,because politicians themselves are private landlords, and most certainly wont legislate to hurt their own business interests. Just google and see how many rentals ex mayor deblasio had while he was in office.

"Biden won’t fight inflation because he doesn’t want to anger unions and greenies"
And the middle class families and small businesses will continue to pay the price.

Nice CCP building, built for Covid enforcement.
The $2000 is with good CCP social credit score?

For the first time in city history, it’s residents now pay, on average, two weeks salary on rent with some nearing three weeks and still living in dormitory conditions.

Locally, this is the result of votes made in 1993 & 94. Republicans led the charge to weaken New York City’s rent regulations and this is the result.

Vote red –get bled.

@Rob

You full of - Manhattan crap.

The taxation craze is purely a socialist scam, perpetrated by your favorite DemonRats with plenty of help from the RINOs.

Uniparty issue if you haven't noticed yet.

You are the slave.
