The building that I now live in has just recently been sold.
(New York City location) The management of the new owners has approached me for a meeting to discuss a possible buy-out of my existing lease. I still have 1 year left on my lease, paying rent that is well below the market rate. Coupled with that, my apartment is rent stabilized, so even after my lease is up, my rent can only be raised so much.
My question is: What would be the optimum amount of money I could expect the new ownership to agree to pay me to move now?

Thank you..

I didn't know this thing is possible. The building you live in was sold and you still have to pay lease for your apartment? These guys should have contacted you before closing the sale. I think you're in a good position to negotiate the sale price of your apartment, I learned few things about this back when I searched for <a rel="follow" href="http://www.apartmentguide.com/apartments/Texas/San-Antonio/">apartments in San Antonio</a>, buying-out an existing lease is quite common in real estate world.
