The obvious disadvantage of living in a doorman building is that somebody will constantly monitor your day-to-day activities: when you come into your apartment, when you leave, who you're coming in with, who you're leaving with, and so forth. Everything is basically being monitored by some third party or a group of individuals. Many buyers don't necessarily like that level of scrutiny.

Another disadvantage of living in a doorman building is the fact that the people who assist you will eventually expect to get paid and tipped at the end of the year. If you don't tip them or if you lowball the tip, they may hold that against you and reduce the level of service they provide to you going forward.

Another risk of a doorman building is that you might just not get along with somebody who works downstairs. There's nothing worse than seeing somebody you don't like every time you go into or leave your NYC apartment!
