Introduction

basis to arrange for the sale of 334 East 79th Street on the Upper East Side. This 8 story 46 (including
supers) unit elevator building is entirely free market and offers future ownership the unparalleled
opportunity to capitalize on the surging rental and/or condominium markets in one of Manhattans
most established neighborhoods.

foot in a market that continues to increase. The


building is broom swept and has been well

maintained. The lobby was recently updated. The current ownership is in the process of replacing
portions of the roof and the boiler currently burns number #2 oil.
The Location
The Upper East Side is one of Manhattans most dynamic and sought after neighborhoods offering
its patrons a variety of world class shopping, dining and entertainment opportunities all the while
providing quick and easy access to the rest of the city. Public transportation is easily accessible via
the 4, 5, 6 trains at 77th or 86th Streets and Lexington Avenue and the numerous bus lines which
service the area.
Additionally, the property will greatly benefit from the completion of the Second Avenue Subway
Line. Upon completion of the project there will be 16 new stations constructed with the new
subway line running along Second Avenue from 125th Street to the Financial District in Lower
Manhattan. This line will provide much needed connections to existing tracks that service Midtown
West and Brooklyn. Under the current plan, the project is being constructed in four phases. Phase
One will include tunnels from 105th Street and Second
Avenue to 63rd Street and Third Avenue, with new stations
along Second Avenue at 96th, 86th and 72nd Streets and
new entrances to the existing Lexington Av/63rd Street
Station at 63rd Street and Third Avenue. Phase One is
currently scheduled for completion in 2016.

The Rental Market


The property offers investors the opportunity to establish a presence within one of Manhattans
1

most dynamic and sought after neighborhoods. The New York City rental market is arguably the
strongest in the nation, as there is limited housing supply and a continuously growing population.
According to the 2013 Census Bureau; New York Citys population has risen approximately 3.9% since
2000, to approximately 8.3M, and is projected to grow by an additional 5% to 8.7M in 2020 and to 9.1M
historical vacancy rates to remain low. These fundamentals make investing in New York City multifamily
properties attractive to both foreign and domestic investors.
According to the third quarter 2014 Citi-Habits Residential Market Report the New York City vacancy rate
is currently 1.37%. The vacancy rates within the submarket of the Upper East Side is lower at 1.27%. In
addition, the average rent per square foot in Manhattan was up 4.2% compared to 2012, illustrating that
owners are continuing to achieve top line revenue growth.
The Condo Market
The Manhattan residential sales market in the second quarter of 2014 continued to perform at peak
pre-2008 levels. According to Corcorans Q2 2014 sales report, there were 3,781 total recorded sales in
Manhattan, an 11% increase from last quarter
and 10% above the past five-year average. The
number of contracts signed, a more immediate
market metric, was 3,593, up 11% from last
quarter, and 23% above the past five-year
average. Manhattans average price increased
20% up to $1.69 million and price per square foot
was up 15% to $1,286, both setting new record
highs. The strength of the market is attributable to
historically-low inventory levels that, while slowly
increasing, continue to significantly lag demand.
The new development market showed the most
robust price growth in the second quarter. Since last year, the average price per unit and price per
square foot increased 63% and 31%, respectively.
The Process
All potential investors who have received the full marketing procure and provided an initial pricing
indication as well as proof of funds will be able to inspect the properties. Please provide a minimum
of 2 days notice when arranging property inspections. A MKRS representative must be present when
inspecting the properties, and we advise you to not attempt to inspect the property on your own. Please
contact one of our exclusive agents outlined in this brochure if you would like to arrange an inspection
or have additional questions.

Property and/or to terminate discussions with any entity at any time with or without notice. Owner shall have no legal commitment
or obligation to any entity reviewing this brochure or making an offer to purchase the Property unless and until a written agreement
satisfactory to Owner has been fully executed, delivered, and approved by Owner and any conditions to Owner obligations
thereunder have been satisfied or waived.
By receipt of this brochure, you agree that this brochure and its contents are of a confidential nature, that you hold and treat it
in the strictest confidence, and that you will not disclose this brochure or any of its contents to any other entity without the prior
written authorization of Owner nor will you use this brochure or any of its contents in any fashion or manner detrimental to the
interest of Owner or Massey Knakal.
It is essential that all parties to real estate transactions be aware of the health, liability and economic impact of environmental
factors on real estate. Massey Knakal does not conduct investigations or analysis of environmental matters and, accordingly,
urges its clients to retain qualified environmental professionals to determine whether hazardous or toxic wastes or substances
(such as asbestos, PCBs and other contaminants or petrochemical products stored in underground tanks) or other undesirable
materials or conditions, are present at the Property and, if so, whether any health danger or other liability exists. Such substances
may have been used in the construction or operation of buildings or may be present as a result of previous activities at the
Property.
Various laws and regulations have been enacted at the federal, state and local levels dealing with the use, storage, handling,
removal, transport and disposal of toxic or hazardous wastes and substances. Depending upon past, current and proposed uses
of the Property, it may be prudent to retain an environmental expert to conduct a site investigation and/or building inspection.
If such substances exist or are contemplated to be used at the Property, special governmental approvals or permits may be
required. In addition, the cost of removal and disposal of such materials may be substantial. Consequently, legal counsel and
technical experts should be consulted where these substances are or may be present.
While this brochure contains physical description information, there are no references to condition. Neither Owner nor Massey
Knakal make any representation as to the physical condition of the Property. Prospective purchasers should conduct their own
independent engineering report to verify Property condition.
In this brochure, certain documents, including leases and other materials, are described in summary form. The summaries do not
purport to be complete nor, necessarily, accurate descriptions of the full agreements involved, nor do they purport to constitute a
legal analysis of the provisions of the documents. Interested parties are expected to review independently all relevant documents.
The terms and conditions stated in this section will relate to all of the sections of the brochure as if stated independently therein.
If, after reviewing this brochure, you have no further interest in purchasing the Property at this time, kindly return this brochure
to Massey Knakal at your earliest possible convenience. Photocopying or other duplication is not authorized. This brochure shall
not be deemed an indication of the state of affairs of Owner, nor constitute an indication that there has been no change in the
business or affairs of Owner since the date of preparation of this brochure.
All zoning information, including but not limited to, use and buildable footage must be independently verified.
