East 38th Street, New York, NY 10016
Murray Hill, Manhattan · 2 BR · $4,995/mo · active as of 9/26/2026
This 1925 building has 18 open HPD violations, which is a notable number for a small 3-unit property; however, none are Class C (immediately hazardous), and the building shows zero heat complaints, 311 noise or rodent reports, and no bedbug filings over the past 12 months. The listing lacks a unit number, which is common on Craigslist and Facebook but means you should confirm the exact apartment and verify that what you tour matches what you'd be signing a lease for. At $4,995 per month, the asking rent is about 27 percent below the neighborhood median of $6,850 based on 29 comparable listings—ask why the price is significantly lower and whether there are trade-offs such as limited natural light, smaller square footage, or upcoming construction. We couldn't load the listing photos, so you'll need to assess the unit's condition, layout, and any signs of deferred maintenance entirely in person. Confirm pet, laundry, and elevator policies directly with the landlord or managing agent, Theresa Sabbatino, since those details weren't provided.
Things to check first
- No unit number; common on Craigslist and FB, harder to verify.
