The Complete Guide to Buying a Condo in NYC: https://www.hauseit.com/buying-a-condo-in-nyc/

Buying a condo in New York City is a more straightforward process compared to buying a co-op apartment. Buying a condo means that you are purchasing real property instead of shares of a corporation, which is the case if you are buying a co-op in New York City.

While buyer closing costs are higher for condos than for co-ops, condos are a more flexible form of ownership. Condos are more valuable because they have fewer subletting restrictions, and unlike for co-ops, there is virtually no risk that a condo building will reject your application to buy an apartment.

What happens once you are in-contract to buy a condo in NYC?

Having a signed contract means that you can begin work on your mortgage application. It usually takes two to four weeks to receive a mortgage commitment letter.

Most condos in NYC also require buyers to complete a purchase application. While co-ops can reject buyers at will, the only way a condo can reject a buyer is if the building agrees to exercise its right of first refusal and purchase the apartment under the same transaction terms as your deal. A condo typically has 30 days to waive its right of first refusal and permit you to close on the apartment.
