Hi, 

I've found two properties I really like and I can't decide which would appreciate faster/ better over time. One on the Lower East Side ( Suffolk and Rivington) or WV with is ( 6ave and Minetta Lane). 

Pros and cons 

WV:

Needs upgrades in kitchen and bathroom

Closer commute 

More trains

Bigger apartment

Better light 

More parks 

LES:

High end renovations already

Maybe appreciate faster since alot of development is happening

Board seems to be more relaxed 

Quieter street
