This is the desirable West Village apartment block where a 63 year old woman is set to live on a rent of only $400 a month for the rest of her life after she married an 87 year old man a month before he died. Sarah Berman is entitled to stay in one of the buildings exclusive condominiums for the peppercorn rent after she wed elderly tenant Stanley Lowell in September, just weeks before he passed away...The building's owner, Fourth FGP LLC, is asking a Manhattan Supreme Court judge to allow it to evict Ms. Berman who it accuses of 'gamesmanship, seduction, and artifice' to get her husband and his flat. Court papers accuse her of tricking her vulnerable husband into marriage 'to wrongfully procure procession rights to the apartment'. Neighbors have said the elderly man was 'out of it' at the end of his life and that Berman is a bad tenant...'She used to get into violent arguments with some of the guys in the building' another told the newspaper..Residents said the couple, who had been living together since the early 1990s, never acknowledged each other in public and had loud arguments..The landlord claims Mr.Lowell 'lacked the mental capacity to understand the nature, effects and consequences of the purported marriage'".
Looking past the fact that this woman is probably bat shit insane, this is how you gold dig folks. Not like that moron who fell for the 600 pound man and then ended up having him murdered. Ms. Berman knows how to play the game. My apartment in the Upper East Side was $2,000 and my bedroom was 9X10. $400 a month for that condo in the West Village? Are you kidding me? Let me give you a small list of people I would marry and sleep with to get a $400 a month condo in that neighborhood: Eva Braun, Barbra Bush, Charo, and that wicked ugly chick Marla Hooch from "A League of Their Own". Just absurd what a bargain that is. I'm not even sure bargain is an appropriate word to use in this situation. More like a figurative mouth fucking this guy was giving to the landlord/ management comapny only paying that much. Speaking of the landlord, talk about sour grapes. Him and the management company were counting down the days till this guy died so they were off the hook and could charge a standard New York price of a gazzilion dollars a month for this place. Instead, they got OWNED by her when she Anna Nicole Smith'd this guy into getting married and getting his apt at the same fixed rate. I'm curious to see how it will play out, even though I don't see how they can evict her. Well played Sarah Berman, you raving lunatic, well played.
