Realtors' phones ringing off the hook as panicked New Yorkers ditch coveted area codes to flee Mamdani housing chaos

Real estate agents are being bombarded with calls this morning from panicked New Yorkers desperate to flee after Zohran Mamdani’s mayoral victory last night.

The most desirable destinations are said to be the city's affluent suburbs and Republican strongholds across the Sun Belt.

Agents, from Westchester and Greenwich to Florida, Texas and the Carolinas, said they have seen a surge in calls from New Yorkers desperate to relocate.

Some residents are said to be searching within commuting distance, while others are looking to get as far away as possible.

'We are seeing interest from New York City intensify because of the election,' Dina Goldentayer, a Douglas Elliman agent in Florida, told the Daily Mail.

'The city's area codes 917 and 212 are popping up now almost as much as they did at the height of the Covid pandemic.

'Most of the calls are from buyers, many Wall Street execs, looking in the $20 million to $30 million range. Specifically for waterfront houses or oceanfront condos.'

The original Manhattan area code, 212, has long been considered a status symbol among established New Yorkers.

One of my friends lives in Staten Island and she says she's done. She doesn't own her place but is renting and is going to leave before the end of the month.

[LMAO]

Why would New Yorkers flee New York because of Mandami?

He’ll be the mayor of New York City. He’s not the governor of the state or a legislator in the state house.

MUSLIM SOCIALIST -  in one of the heaviest populated cities in the country with a very heavy Muslim presence.  Do you honestly believe that the Muslim win isn't going to continue in  NY??

Some are leaving the state altogether, but a lot more are coming out to Nassau County or Suffolk County.  I hear that Great Neck real estate is expected to boom.

Excellent news for anybody who’s selling a house that lives in those areas

Yup, or renting one out.  Not such good news for tenants with aggressive landlords.  Thankfully, we’ve been tenants in the same property for 12 years and the owner is pretty decent; also, I’ve done a number of projects around the house that have improved the value.

Because in part when his administration defunds the NYPD as promised, the resultant crime will be beyond belief.  Further, the Islamist bent of his inner circle is a direct threat to Jewish NYCers.  They see the writing on the wall and aren’t going to stay around to be trapped it that hot mess.

U-Haul I am certain issued an order for 20% of their fleet used for national moves to be re-located to New York.

The exodux is real.  And one demographic group that should seriously consider leaving are folks of the Jewish faith.  New York is no longer a safe space.  Crime will skyrocket.  Murder and robbery will go through the roof.  Get out while getting out is possible.  Mussies will roam as they do in London, harming whoever they choose. 

If you value your life and that of your family, get the hell out of New York.  You can live on a fraction of the income in states that do not tax you to death.

[LMAO]

This guy has a lot of dangerous policy beliefs, but how much of them is he really going to be able to implement and how much of those beliefs will he moderate once in power?


Political rhetoric and reality sometimes butt heads with each other

For example, I don’t believe that most citizens in New York City truly want to defund their police department.

A few years ago, there was a ballot initiative in  Minneapolis to defund the police, and it was handedly defeated

I read somewhere that Pods is moving their containers to the NY area in anticipation of this.

Jews all over Europe were able to leave during the rise of Hitler. Many did leave. Many stayed because of business or various other reasons until it was too late. They did not believe that anything would happen to them. I am a loyal native German! Nobody will ever dare to do anything to me.

When they heard the stories and reports of what was happening elsewhere, they deliberately chose not to believe it. Oh ... those are just stories. That cannot be true. It is just propaganda.

When they heard what Hitler and the Nazis were planning, the most famous quote from so many Jews was, "Nobody could possibly be that cruel."

Thank God I do not live anywhere near New York. I am grateful that this current situation is not my problem. If I lived in NYC today, I would call relatives in the South/MidWest/SouthWest/ for a place to stay until I can figure it all out. Wyoming/Alaska always needs new people.

With a vast number of Muslim in NYC; appx. 1,000,000 or roughly 9% of the population, I have little doubt that his agenda will  be implemented.

Are you denying that the purpose of the Muslim influence that we continue to see, won't have an impact on the rest of the country and that they aren't aiming for their violent holy war??

There is a poster here, and I don’t recall who it was, but they asked people  if they know any Muslims personally

Do you? I do.

I don't need to know any Muslims personally to make a determination as to the writing on the wall.  If you can't see it, you soon will.

By the way I had a Muslim nurse while I was in the hospital, she was the sweetest and most efficient nurse I had ... that doesn't equate to all Muslims being sweet and kind. 

I have had far more negative experiences with local Muslims than good.

When they tell you their intentions you had better believe them.

Who didn't see all this coming???? Hello .... an all Muslim city council in Dearborn, MI should have been your first clue.

Muzzies do what Muzzies do.  They do not coexist.  They take over.
