Millennials wanting to live in NYC need to get real

Today's twenty-somethings take an idealistic, impractical approach to finding housing in the Big Apple For the city that never sleeps, it is pretty expensive to find a place to sleep. This is especially true for nearly all recent college graduates relocating to the Big Apple. New York may be the greatest city in the world (depending on which Uber driver you ask) but it is handcuffed to the nation’s highest cost of living.

Window Cleaning, Hard Water Stain Removal & High Pressure Cleaning

Window Cleaning Get clean, sparkling windows backed by service and support from property maintenance experts. We help you plan your cleaning schedule far in advance to ensure the building looks fantastic and you stay on budget. As the work is performed, you have an on-call point of contact and the assurance of minimal disruption to your tenants. Hard Water Stain Removal When hard water dries on glass, the mineral deposits left behind build up to leave stains on the surface. If left for too long, they can even cause permanent damage to your windows. We use safe, effective methods of removing these mineral stains to restore windows to their original condition. For best results, quickly address the source of your hard water stains—a leak in the building, maybe—or schedule periodic cleaning with our team. High Pressure Cleaning High-pressure cleaning removes dirt, grease, oil, and gum build up from sidewalks, walkways, and courtyards. Pressure washing done well removes
