The Co-op Said the Apartment Was Quiet. But My Neighbors Are So Loud!
Q: I recently bought a co-op in Manhattan. During the due-diligence process before the purchase, the co-op board assured me and my attorney that there were no noise issues or noise complaints relating to the unit. It turns out that our upstairs neighbors have children who play ball and run around constantly, which causes quite a disturbance in my apartment. It also turns out that other residents filed numerous noise complaints against this neighbor and that the board was actively involved — which was never disclosed to myself or my attorney. What are my options now? A: Holding the board accountable in this situation could be difficult, because New York's disclosure laws are working against you. Standard co-op sale contracts typically include a clause stating that the buyer is not relying on any statement, representation or agreement not specifically included in the contract with the seller, including any statements by third parties, such as the board. Co-op boards in New York generally have no duty to disclose problems unless they are asked specific questions. 'Unless the board or seller made a specific false statement, legal recourse for nondisclosure is limited,' said Ruta Behrend, a partner who practices real estate law at Tane Waterman & Wurtzel, P.C. If your board did make false statements or knowingly withheld information, you might have a case of misrepresentation, but the legal path is narrow. It depends on the facts. Did you ask if the seller specifically had made noise complaints? Or if any shareholder had? If the complaints exist, they should have been logged in the board's meeting minutes, which are available for the buyer's attorney to examine before a sale. Did you attorney read the minutes? The board is also protected by the business judgment rule, which legally protects many board actions, making your case even more difficult. 'How many years of litigation would result, and what would the ultimate recovery be even if successful?' said Stuart M. Saft, partner and real estate practice group leader at Holland & Knight LLP. Noise complaints can be difficult to pursue legally, but you should document what you hear so you can make a case to the board to enforce its house rules. If your lease contains a provision that apartments be 80 percent carpeted, ask the board to enforce that clause. If you get no response, you can bring a private nuisance claim against your neighbor, but your success would depend upon how well you documented the disturbances and if they are persistent and unreasonable.

Stablecoin Issuer Circle Surges 168% in NYSE Debut After IPO Tops Price Expectations
Shares of Circle Internet Group (NYSE:CRCL) jumped 168% on Thursday following its initial public offering, which raised nearly $1.1 billion for the stablecoin firm and its selling shareholders. The stock debuted at $69 on the New York Stock Exchange, well above its IPO price of $31, and at one point hit a high of $103.75. Circle Internet Group (NYSE:CRCL) set its IPO price late Wednesday, significantly above both the revised $27–$28 range earlier in the week and the initial $24–$26 estimate from last week, giving the company a valuation of around $6.8 billion before trading began. By the end of the day, trading volume hit approximately 46 million shares, well above the number of publicly available shares. CEO Jeremy Allaire made the following statement on CNBC's 'Money Movers' on Thursday: 'To realize our vision, we needed to forge relationships with governments, we needed to work with policymakers … because if you want this to work for mainstream, it's got to work in mainstream society and you need to have those rules of the road. We've been one of the most licensed, regulated, compliant, transparent companies in the entire history of this industry, and that's served us well.' Allaire co-founded Circle Internet Group (NYSE:CRCL) in 2013. Originally headquartered in Boston, the company began with a focus on consumer payment solutions, along with crypto wallet and exchange services. In 2015, it became the first company to secure the notoriously hard-to-get BitLicense from New York State. Earlier this year, Circle relocated its headquarters to New York. While we acknowledge the potential of CRCL as an investment, our conviction lies in the belief that some AI stocks hold greater promise for delivering higher returns and have limited downside risk.

On Thursday, Morgan Stanley analyst Elizabeth Porter raised the price target on Sprinklr Inc. (NYSE:CXM) to $10 from $8, while maintaining an Equal Weight rating on the shares. Porter noted that Sprinklr's Q1 2025 report showed progress in the company's transformation, with operational improvements and a stable near-term outlook. A software engineer working on a monitor in a modern office. Morgan Stanley is encouraged by the early stages of what is expected to be an approximately 18-month transformation and believes the shares appropriately reflect a turnaround story. The company's total revenue reached $205.5 million in Q1, which was up 5% year-over-year, and subscription revenue at $184.1 million, which was up 4%. Professional services revenue in particular was $21.4 million. The subscription and revenue-based net dollar expansion rate was 102%, and the company had 146 customers with $1 million or more in subscription revenue, which is up 6%.
