Three bedroom apartments in NYC can be scarce. Those looking for NYC apartments with 3 bedrooms or more can ease the process by teaming up with a Platinum Properties NYC Realtor who is well-versed in searching for these needles in the haystack of Manhattan apartments. However, right now, demand is far exceeding supply as families are staying in the city, rather than moving to the suburbs, and need ample space for their children. The improvement of NYC public schools and the revitalization of green spaces like the High Line are keeping families Manhattan-bound and looking for space.

Large apartments, both by room count and square footage are elusive in the history of Manhattan real estate. Three bedroom apartments in NYC accounted for only 5 per cent of the sales in the last quarter. You will usually find NYC 3 bedroom apartments in pre-war co-ops, but the people living here do not and will not leave, rightfully so. Unless you are prepared to standby for old Mrs. Leiberman to kick the bucket and vacate, look to a knowledgeable NYC real estate brokerage like Platinum Properties to help find your dream 3 bedroom.
