I'm on a large investment brokerages marketing list for Manhattan and Brooklyn and I've been receiving offerings running in the 3.5% - 4% range for four to six story walk ups some with ground floor retail.Because I'm not a buyer in these markets I've not actually analysed the markets and or market comps.You should reach out to the broker for clarification on the free market rental units.Note: I'm sure you are aware of this, but in the event your aren't the rent controlled units are nearly impossible to convert to free market.

I've found it's better to attend the meetings than it is to become a member but that's my experience.
