‘Wait Until They Realize They Make 40% Less Than NYC’: Florida Newcomer Faces Backlash After Saying an Apartment in the State Is Cheaper Than in New York

There are many things that may set off the alarms of some people living in a specific city, yet one that really makes people turn their heads, raise their eyebrows, and even gasp is when someone says something that isn’t entirely true. To give you a quick example, one person on social media claimed that living in Miami, Florida, might be cheaper and more comfortable than in New York. What that person was not expecting was a wave of backlash, as those who live in the city think that it is much worse.

New York building collapse exposes gentrification anger in Black community: "It's just all about making money"

New York, New York - Winston Bowen quietly watched as New York firefighters looked for survivors in the rubble of a collapsed building in Brooklyn, after a deadly tragedy that he blamed on "careless" developers leading rapid gentrification. The 54-year-old's assessment was echoed by others who gathered Thursday opposite the grim scene in Flatbush, a mostly Black neighborhood, where a three-story building plunged into a neighboring excavation site. Investigations have only just begun, but Bowen said he believed the property owners may have cut corners in their plans to construct a nine-story bu...

Zohran Mamdani Says “New York City Will Now Give Community Organizations the First Shot at Buying Eligible Homes”

New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani recently signed the COPA bill that prioritizes vetted community organizations to buy eligible homes. On November 19, 2026, New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani talked about the Community Opportunity to Purchase Act (COPA).

It also aims to support affordability for New Yorkers and treat housing as a social right. In his post, the mayor stated that flippers looking to make a profit would not receive priority. Instead, vetted community ...

Retirees Are Finding Their People Between Two Clubhouses And Four Pools At This Gated Long Island Community In New York

Some people retire and buy a boat. Others downsize, sell the big house, and go looking for a place where the neighbors already have a mahjong table set up. In Suffolk County, one gated neighborhood has quietly become that second kind of answer. It has two clubhouses, two indoor pools, two outdoor pools, a nine-hole walking golf course, and a monthly newsletter that reaches more than 700 households.

Whatever Happened to Pergament Home Centers?

For generations of Long Islanders, Pergament was one of those stores that seemed to be part of the suburban landscape. Whether a homeowner needed paint for a bedroom, wallpaper for a kitchen, replacement hardware, or supplies for a weekend project, the familiar Pergament name was never far from the conversation. Its stores grew alongside the neighborhoods they served, long before national home-improvement warehouses came to dominate the market.

Passaic County files eminent domain lawsuit over $106M project

Two weeks after breaking ground on a $106.4 million government complex in Paterson, Passaic County went to court to secure a 242-square-foot strip of neighboring property after it was unable to reach a deal with the owner. The county filed an eminent domain lawsuit seeking temporary use of the neighboring land for two years to access the construction site. The county offered $5,600 to use 241.9 square feet of a commercial property at 332-344 Main St. for two years but could not reach an agreement with its owner, Empire Package LLC, said a complaint filed Oct. 27 in state Superior Court. Story continues below photo gallery. The property borders the former Passaic County Jail site at 11 Marshall St., where a six-story office building and parking garage are planned. The county had the land appraised in September by Wade Appraisal LLC of Metuchen. The firm valued it at $115 per square foot and used a 10% annual rental rate to calculate the cost of the two-year easement. That came to $5,564, with no additional damages assessed for the rest of the property. The county set its offer at $5,600 and sent it by mail Sept. 25, with another copy delivered

Bidding wars for Long Island homes are so brutal, even all-cash buyers are getting burned

Frank DiMaio had the cash, a signed contract and $230,000 sitting in escrow. He still lost the house he wanted to buy. The orthopedic surgeon, who recently hung up his scalpel after four decades, spent much of this year trying to swap the Old Brookville estate he and his wife have called home for about 25 years for something smaller on Long Island’s North Shore. Instead, the couple got a front-row seat to the most cutthroat housing scrum in the country. “I’ve never experienced anything like this,” DiMaio told The Post. Long Island has become the hardest place in America to buy a home, with Redfin repeatedly ranking Nassau and Suffolk counties as the nation’s strongest seller’s market even as most big metros tilt toward buyers. Bloomberg via Getty Images He’s got plenty of company. Redfin has crowned Nassau and Suffolk counties the strongest seller’s market in America again and again, most recently clocking roughly 36% fewer sellers than buyers. Across most of the country, the pendulum has swung the other way, with 39 of the nation’s 50 biggest metros now favoring house hunters. On Long Island , nobody seems to have gotten the memo. The DiMaios thought they’d scored
