The Private-School Sales Bump on the Upper East Side

While the bulk of private schools are on the East Side, there are also some high-profile schools on the Upper West Side, including the Trinity School and the Collegiate School. Michele Kleier, the president of Kleier Residential, has a client who has always lived on the East Side but is finding herself looking west because her children may be going to school there. “She has been on the East Side forever, but now she is considering the West Side,” Ms. Kleier said. “But she wants something in good condition, so if she hates it, she can sell right away and move back.”
