It's pretty standard in most apartments (Except in most apartments built before the late 80s). For those that don't provide a washer & Dryer, they may still have hook-ups (but that's still not the majority of apartments.

Cleverly designed floor plan. I like when bathrooms in studios are down a hallway far away from the living area, good for privacy when guests come over.

1000 is the max i will ever pay for that kind of size, i have lived in seattle for 17 years, 1700 is a great deal so close to downtown, but now as i gotten older i would much rather travel longer distances to work and pay less in rent. 1700 is really a big chunk of money for that size for most people, its hard to save money for the future plus chance of rent increases.

I hate that they charge so much for a shoebox. In NY, studios apts are about the same price as a 1 bedroom or hell, even a 2 bedroom, n the sqft is less than those. Almost 2k or paying 2k n change for a studio or 1 bedroom thats only 400 sqft or 500 is honestly to much money for what little u get tbh. But u gotta take what u can get and while maybe not ideal or what someone wants, at least you are able to make the place real cozy and cute.

Wow. $1700 for basically a hotel room. I'm not gonna go into " you could get this or that where I live ". I'll just say, in certain places 6 figures is broke and I see why. I also see why so many rich people are moving to MS. The rent prices are insane in these places. Especially Cali and New York. I paid cash for a house just to avoid paying any rent at all. These places are screwing people.

@kirstenpriest9283 Ай бұрын

Rent is kinda insane everywhere and there’s been a lot inflation across the country in recent years. Companies are screwing people everywhere. Seattle may be expensive, but wages are also higher. Where I’m from, you couldn’t even afford a 1 bedroom working full time minimum wage. In Seattle, you can at least get something. Also there’s decent walkability/public transport, so you don’t need a car. Considering that the average American spends $12k a year on car expenses, not having one saves a lot of money. That’s awesome that you don’t have debt and paid cash for a house, but that’s not really practical for everyone. And there’s no guarantee that your job/family is near places that affordable

@@Mercedesbenzz8 please, spare us the gas lighting. Pretending to be “shocked” that prices vary significantly around the country in desirable, coastal locations versus flyover states in 2024 is ridiculous. There’s nothing new about this. And your passive aggressive “you do you” after your obvious attempt at humble bragging is not you being “nice”. you watched a video of a young professional woman living a successful life in a city and you couldn’t stop yourself from writing about YOURSELF and your middle of nowhere mortgage- even though there was no mention of mortgages or anything in this video- in an attempt to make this woman feel a certain way. All it does is show your own insecurity and inadequacies and jealousy….but, ya know…YOU DO YOU.

Square footage isn’t the only value of a home. Being in a city, there are a lot of cool things to do for free/cheap within walking/busing distance. Seattle is cool because there’s so many parks, museums, and live music venues. The weather is great and there’s a lot of outdoorsy activities. Cities tend to be more accepting of people who are minorities or don’t live “traditional” lifestyles. I can easily use the bus if my car is in the shop and my partner doesn’t have a car at all. I understand it’s not for everyone, but it offers a lot of benefits to a lot of people

Lose the hand held 🎤....looks like an affectation. Not an actusl kitchen. just a counter along one wall, wich makes the whole room just one BIG Kitchen.... A floor to ceiling beaded curtain would help to obscure it from view a bit. That window-wall is fabulous....I would definitely build a long window-seat with storage then put a bistro table in front of it with a couple of chairs next to the kitchen counter. A desk on the diagonal in the opposite corner with a potted palm next to it would be my office area. A Murphy Bed is a GIVEN in that space. Finally a couch facing the window to enjoy the view.
