Are you interested in finding out how your maintenance compares to your neighborhood's average? Or to other Manhattan neighborhoods?

A few months ago I posted a link to this comparison, and last week it got a lot of attention again. If you haven't seen it, click on:

and scroll down to "Manhattan Maintenance Fees" where you can download a pdf of the details.

Remember, it's just an average. And it's based on the square feet in an apartment, not on such details as how nice the kitchen is, whether the bathroom reno is new or in dire need of one, and whether there's a doorman.

Still, it gives a good sense of how much you can expect to pay in a given neighborhood. And it compares 2008 fees with 2006 fees.
