Below Central Park, but above Financial District. Monthly rent ~$1,700-$1,800 per person. Is this too much to ask for?

you couldnt even get a studio for that.

yes, it is too much to ask for, in the area you want.
It is almost laugheable

People, Trulia is the craigslist of the apt searches. Tons of fake stuff.

Sigh, i didnt want to personally get involved in this but this is why brokers are used.

Here's some REAL info (from someone actually working in the industry) i found matching your needs, all 2br/2ba

$3900 east village on 1ave/12st
$3700 east village on 9st/ave a
$3625 kips bay on 33st/2ave
$3595 upper east side 69st/1ave

Try the Bronx. You could get a great apartment there.

Lol at "you didn't want to personally get involved" as if you don't peruse this site looking for potential commission...

North Jersey (Edgewater, Weehawken & Fort Lee)

20-25 minute bus ride to manhattan on a good day. Nice river views. Plenty of 2BR - 2BA INCLUDING parking.

No NYC taxes (you save $2000 a year)

I've gotten a few people on this board a place, this is true. Sometimes I've messaged people asking if they want my help sometimes I get messaged out of nowhere from other people. I no longer message people from here unless it's a reply to their questions.
