Which is not all that simple.

Which is not all that simple.

Why?

[bubkiz]

Why?

Neighbors. Unless your on a frum block which means more $$$$. In general, Chestnut Ridge is anti-development.

Sounds perfect lol, look at Monsey!  Roads are too narrow for the traffic, not enough sidewalks, garbage in the streets etc

Where is glen hill? I can't find it online. Is it a condo development?

[rots5]

Glen hill is a new development. Who know where getty is? Its a drop up the block from there. (Not towards tuvias)

And there are a lot of requirements to be filled in order to get a room tax free or even more so a house. You need the paperwork. The minyan. The fire code. The building code. It ain't simple. But if u pay off st Lawrence and bribe him enough then ur good to go. 

And yes dyke area personally is the next upcoming great place for yeshiva light who work but are still machshiv the torah life.

Ok let me rephrase.

I'm not from Monsey, looking to move there.

Where is the cheapest place to buy right now for a working frum family.

[bem684]

btw I recommend using www.zillow.com for house searching.  lots of good info there.  just don't trust the lot measurements if they sound too good to be true, and as somebody said earlier, NEVER trust the tax information
