After renting their first New York apartment sight unseen, they decided to take a new place in the South Bronx with eyes wide open. Altin Sencalar’s timing could hardly have been worse. “New York is the destination for jazz,” said Mr. Sencalar, a jazz trombonist. So a year and a half ago, he and his wife, Marina Sencalar, signed on — sight unseen — to an apartment in Washington Heights.
