New York City's high-end market may be softening a little, but the tried-and-true starter apartment category still is hectic; after all, it's the first rung in the so-called property ladder. And the simplest place to start, architecturally and price-wise, is with a studio. But it's not so simple with a limited budget—at least in NYC, as anywhere else, this would buy a house—of $250,000. If you're on the hunt for a studio at this budget, this sampling of this weekend's open houses are happy for you to visit.
