[@ellys7516]

That first apartment is the most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen

[@AbbyAsselin]

agreed

[@shelbyabts6171]

I’m not even finished with the video but this is one of my favorite vlogs you’ve done! I really liked how you gave all the details on each apartment (like rent, square footage, etc) and I loved hearing you and Griffin’s opinions after each place! It felt like watching House Hunters but way more relatable haha

[@AbbyAsselin]

omg amazing, thank you for that ❤️❤️❤️ im glad you enjoyed!

[@toriirons3114]

My jaw DROPPED at the first apartment!! Those floor to ceiling windows with the black details were AMAZING!! I loved this vlog so much!

[@AbbyAsselin]

glad you loved it!!!❤️

HAHAHA

[@myoung0623]

So funny 😂

[@laurenvazquez6778]

As someone who moved to Houston 3 years ago and my boyfriend works for PwC downtown.. trust me.. living downtown in fun short term but get so old so quick! No heb downtown, and no parking whatsoever when guest come visit. There’s “guest parking” at the apartments but it’s so hard to actually get a spot. We just recently moved about 6min from downtown in the montrose/river oaks area and we are soo much happier being close to grocery stores, food, and it’s overall less chaotic. Just my piece of advice :)

[@laurenvazquez6778]

Oh and you can find a 2 bedroom for about $2200-$2300 just a few minutes down the street instead of almost $3000 downtown! And forgot to mention downtown does not feel safe whatsoever when the sun goes down (sometimes doesn’t even feel safe during the day.. lol) I know you’ll have to be walking Ella outside and you would have to be super careful... and there isn’t much grass lol

[@ElaSiromascenko1]

Lauren, you have no idea how your comment just filled me with hope! We'll be touring places in the Montrose area next weekend and I've been quite meh about it. I was fixed on Downtown because I would have a direct bus commute to work but the places we saw yesterday within our budget had horrible reviews so I sadly had to admit that Downtown is maybe not an option for us right now.

[@laurenvazquez6778]

@@ElaSiromascenko1 I wish you the best of luck!!! :)

[@alexiabarajas8218]

my two fav youtubers🤩

[@slushersellshomes6905]

Love the Studemont / Washington Corridor area! Lots of new builds and close to EVERYTHING!!

[@laurenmallek2320]

YES! i’ve lived in houston my whole life and my first apartment was in that area

[@shai.loves.tacos.]

GIRL i can eat up & down Washington ave like its nobody’s BUSINESS 🤣🤣🤣

[@NaeTooSwavey]

Yes! Agreed love that area and they’re definitely building up!

[@nanawordie7967]

i really enjoyed seeing these apartments in houston because they're so nice. I want to live in houston after college too so this was a helpful video! also i'm amazed at how hard you work especially for your channel so I just wanted to say I appreciate that and that you motivate me to be productive

[@AbbyAsselin]

thank you so much i’m glad it helps ❤️ houston is great!

[@tracy_cakkes]

Griffin: “Your gonna film” “They don’t care I’ll do it” 😂 Thanks Griff

[@AbbyAsselin]

he truly does not give a single 💩 what ppl think hahahah

[@tracy_cakkes]

@@AbbyAsselin lolol it’s a good trait to have

[@MeghanConsadene]

the difference it makes to see a furnished model apartment vs an empty one!! wow

[@jananeimanns]

Hey, I loved this video. It's so long and apartment hunting is such a nice change of content. It was also nice to hear Griffin's opinion on the apartments. They seem so big and so expensive to me, because In Germany or here in Scotland, I guess the highest prices would be around 1500$ for buying an apartment for myself. They would definitely be smaller though. Nonetheless, all the apartments were modern and very nicely spaced out. I can definitely see you and Griffin living there. Now, it's getting real and you will start your job soon. If you have to reduce your videos or anything else, in order to be able to spend time with your friends and family, then definitely do it. As you said, mental health and self-care are way too important. I believe you will do everything in a way that will work out :) also thank you for keeping up with vlogmas, when it takes you so much time.

[@AbbyAsselin]

thank you for this ❤️ glad you enjoyed it!

[@elizabeththecity9674]

Love apartment hunting!! I’ve never been to Texas so this is so fun to see what apartments are like there :)

[@iloveasailor23]

Expensive as all get out.

[@shalizeboh125]

@@iloveasailor23 they are particularly looking at expensive places. You can get a modern place for under 2k

[@AbbyAsselin]

texas is amazing!!!

[@amelialarroque757]

Idk but the second one’s crown molding and bedrooms REALLY reminded me of your og college apartments😅 the first complex was def my favorite.

[@alexandracarpenter6012]

Houstonian here! I live near memorial and I love it! Highly recommend this area - washington is such a fun place to be outside of covid and if you're close enough to walk to the park its sooo nice to have it near by.

[@courtneyherald2807]

I’m so excited for you! I graduated from Bama 1 year ago and the transition to the working world was tough and my commute was awful! When I switched jobs recently my commute became much shorter and I started to enjoy the working world more! I would always recommend the shorter commute because it’s something that seems small but has a huge impact, especially with you having two jobs!!

[@AbbyAsselin]

i agree with this!! i’ve always said with doing youtube too, i need to squeeze EVERY minute possible out of my day which is why i’m pretty adamant about living downtown

[@Sarah-sm6if]

So exciting that you’re moving here:) living near the mem park is nice but I also love the museum district/ Herman park

[@lilykenwood5423]

omg the first apartment complex was SO nice! I loved the soft wood tones and the 3rd apartment was my fav

[@AbbyAsselin]

yessss agreed

[@MariA-yr8kd]

Year 1 in public accounting is tough. Expect to give yourself some grace as you transition into this new phase of life and as you figure out your schedule. Best wishes ✨✨

[@AbbyAsselin]

thank you ❤️

[@Nolakuer]

2 videos in one day? Omg so excited! Adult apartment hunting hits different from college lol the places in the thumbnail look so nice! I am so excited to see where you pick xx

[@abbieriley17]

I LOVE seeing how much of your personality is showing in these vlogs!! ❤️

[@AbbyAsselin]

trying to be very candid and ~comfy~ with the camera during vlogmas!!!

[@jeannelle_]

I'm always jealous because Texas has beautiful apartments and cheap too!!! So many beautiful apartments with the island kitchen ugh! Love it!

[@AbbyAsselin]

so thankful it doesn’t cost a fortune to live in texas!!

[@nameslesss]

@@AbbyAsselin unlike... *cough cough* NYC and LA

[@laynajk22]

How exciting for you and Griffin!

[@caitlynworley4870]

Definitely don't stress to get your exam done quicker! In the Spring I took my exams back to back to back and completely regretted it. Spreading it out is so much better.

[@AbbyAsselin]

i’m very happy with my decision now that it’s getting closer to my original exam time

[@annagennouzis6104]

The one at 11:00 is absolutely perfect , floor plan is amazing with the nook for a dining table and a second bedroom for the office

[@briannebarrett203]

Your bowel movement comment I’m done 😂😂😂

[@KatieSev]

Omg this is so exciting!! I love seeing apartments in different cities 😋

[@katrinabrandmier8463]

these apartments are so nice cant wait to see you find your home and decorate it the way you want!

[@JeTara]

One of those apartments I’ve been looking at since I’m planning to move to Houston soon. I literally clicked this video bc I recognized one in your thumbnail and had to see it

[@osioneoseni-elamah4161]

I love that you included rent , sqft and also your pros and cons

[@alyssaforker7163]

Omg!! These are all so beautiful! And congrats you are almost at 100k subscribers!! Amazing video per usual!!

thank you :)

[@aleighasmith7420]

This has me inspired to start looking for apartments again! I have been loving all the content you have been making lately! Hope your finals and projects go well!

[@AbbyAsselin]

thank you!

[@acestarone]

Gorgeous space. The first one was definitely my favorite

[@sherberttt20]

I live in downtown Houston! I live in a high rise and my apartment gym also overlooks the city and pool area, I love it it’s so pretty! However, the one complain I have is that if you’re lifting weights or even using a medicine ball like I do on the floor, the ppl downstairs will complain no matter how lightly you place the weights on the floor. I’m not sure if it’s only at my apartment but it’s a possibility at other places. But other than that I love living here! Excited to see your upcoming Houston vids!

[@jess9116]

that first complex and floor plan was so gorgeous 😍😍

[@ShakaylaMeTwan]

The apartment at 22 min was my favorite compared to the others. It felt more warm and homey and lived in.

[@yenasie9425]

I’m so excited for you to move to Houston & be vlogging here again! Loved your random mall trips/hauls and city life Abby ✨✨

[@kaylatcompton]

These apartments are a dream!!😍

[@mmmmukbang2884]

I absolutely loved the island in the second picture. The bathroom was very spacious. Two sinks!! (Which is always a plus)! But the balcony being smalll eh eh 😩

[@OliviaHorner]

I love these apartments! They are gorgeous! I think the first complex is my favorite. I love the hardwood all throughout

[@AbbyAsselin]

thank you so so much:)

[@NAlessthanthree]

i love complex 3!! that model was absolutely gorgeous

[@Ursupervillain]

Omg that first apartment was legit.

[@Miranda_Maheri]

that first apartment 😍 the biggest master bedroom omg

[@Kendykanes]

If you’re still looking, Hardy Yards is amazing! I lived there for a little while. They’re really new.

[@craigcalabro2721]

Hanover River oaks and The Driscoll are nice options too because they are new, but they aren’t downtown.

[@jazzigrey]

those floor to ceiling windows in the first complex are to die for omg

[@AbbyAsselin]

right🤤

[@lovingmakeup02]

This is so exciting!!! It seems like it was yesterday you were starting college and now look how far you've come! It goes to show that hard work and dedication pay off! :)

[@AbbyAsselin]

❤️🥺 thank you

[@Themelroxx]

welcome to Houston 🤍 (soon!) are y’all planning on downtown or right outside of downtown?

[@AbbyAsselin]

downtown is what i would prefer, but we have friends that live downtown now (and have for 3 years) and they’ve kinda helped us figure out what areas are better to live downtown compared to others! we’re open to outside of downtown as well though, just want to be close!

[@andreafrancisco4543]

We LIVE for Longggggggg vlogs!!! 💓💓 keep them coming Abby 💓😊

The first apartment complex is Camden Downtown!

[@katiegiambalvo2497]

I just graduated from UA and am moving to Washington DC and it’s so interesting to see what you can get for the same price in different parts of the country! These apartments are amazinggg.

[@Shyannegloria]

The first building was the bestt and i loved like the 1st apartment you showed and the 3rd and 4th from that same building. (: makes me excited to start looking at moving out.

[@AlexandraSophia]

love binging on these types of vlogs

[@eILEENonyou13]

I like the second tour definitely! It has a little bit of everything and nice room. The last one was nice as well! I think the second you’d get more bang for your buck and have almost everything you want. 👍🏼

I guarantee you can find better places, especially if y’all want a bigger study room for both of y’all. Im shocked as to how small those study rooms are.

What apartment is that?

[@Tbeckchemist]

Griffin vlogging is hilarious

[@jessicapasnik211]

If your looking just outside the city I just moved into a really nice new apartment in Kingwood, Tx. They are way cheaper than living in the city

[@commevache3756]

maybe I missed it in my video feed, but what is that first apt complex?

[@Facieee]

You should watch a video by Payton Maree Charles and see how she plugs in the "like, subscribe, notification" thing and how she plugs her social media pages. It's less confronting and less aggressive than "subscribe" or "follow me" and it'll more likely make people actually want to do that stuff

[@aaaanoosha]

What complex is 20:18? I’m moving this spring and love this floor plan!

[@britAnny21]

Omg I live in Houston Texas!

[@alyssawilberg2535]
