How much would this cost to buy? In Manhattan I would think a lot more than $500k.

avg price per square foot is right around 1k last time I looked, the apt shown is 550 sq ft and that is almost certainly overstated. also that particular apt doesn't look like a particularly good deal for 500k, you can do much better.

I think $1k per sq ft is probably a bit cheap in desirable neighborhoods, but seems reasonable for financial district.
In the desirable hoods in Brooklyn things are about $700 a sq ft.

in my experience there is a huge variance in price as well depending on a number of things. my neighbordhood's avg price per sqft is a lot more than many apts sell at.

I read Ohead's post and the first thing that came to my mind was "maybe it would be cool to move to Sweden"

This would be an awesome deal as long as I got to keep the picture of the happily married couple to watch me masturbate.
