You should host an “explore NYC” show. Interviewing business owners, reviewing the vibe of a place, food, art galleries, music venues etc. you should 100P do it! I would watch the CRAP out of that and I trust your opinion. Please please PLEASE consider doing a show like that!!!!!! You could even do traveling episodes!!! YOURE SO GOOD AT HOSTING

[@emiliaranta3858]

I agree. This could be an extra show like Danielle's morning show

[@brubie535]

@@emiliaranta3858 what morning show?

[@rachelseay4627]

THANK YOU for the rent transparency!I was going to be so annoyed if costs weren’t included. We know you are blessed and make more than most of us watching but awareness/transparency is KEY!!!! LOVE ITTT! Plus a girl can dream :)

[@docp4449]

Completely agree!

[@primrosed2338]

Brooke I know I've said this before, but you are a natural host/presenter. Your reactions and follow up questions are so mature, genuine, and sophisticated. I really hope you go that route solo.

[@JessicaKnox-jw2ge]

Those QVC genes coming in hot lol this girl was raised by Adina!!

[@shelbyfaircloth6668]

I am 31, married with a 5 year old. I live in a brand new custom built home in Florida and I ate this video up. No plans on moving but it was so nicely edited and easy to watch. Way to go, can’t wait to see what’s next.

[@ellene20]

if u move to Brooklyn ... u could do a new series "Brooke in Brooklyn", kinda interviewing local businesses/influencers/random cool ppl... (someone else commented an idea similar so creds to them)

[@kbee2963]

Better Brooke in Brooklyn than Broke in Manhattan

[@SCHgirl123]

Don't be stuck in the mindset that you have two options - pay $10k in mortgage for a $1mill+ place or rent. There are cheaper, less luxurious options that still provide the amenities you want. You have to keep an open mind that if you don't like how a place looks, you can renovate with the remaining budget!

[@ashleylynn6647]

Just to expand on that, most people aren’t able to purchase their dream home as their first house. Majority of people have to sacrifice some wants/amenities in their first, maybe even second home. And that’s totally okay! Maybe it’s just the real estate investor in me, but building equity > renting luxury all day everyday lol

[@karenemilyh]

Thank you so much for sharing pricing and money! So open and honest, NYC is a totally different game then anything else so it’s interesting and wild to see haha

[@byambernicole]

Appreciate that even though this has a higher production level and whatnot that it still feels like you, Brooke!! Props to you for trying new things! So excited for your next space!

[@Itss_chii]

yeah she killed itttt

[@Ebss913]

I never comment BUT this might be one of your best videos! The editing & vibes are unmatched

[@erinwagner9980]

It’s giving House Hunters!! Appreciate the helpful tips from the real estate agent - so excited for you to embark on this journey!

[@laurasouza1434]

Loved it. The editing in this video is unreal. I'm so proud of you!

[@eanna1232]

Brooke this first episode of the series was AMAZING!!! And coming from someone that owns homes, if you can and have the mean to do so, BUY BUY BUY!!! So excited for you!!!

[@maegancobb8876]

This is the grown up elevated content that I’m looking forward to seeing from you!

[@sophiaromano4412]

I really enjoyed this video and appreciated the realness to this!! I’m so excited for you to take us on the apt hunting journey!

[@lisaxoxo8]

You could start doing reviews with restaurants or coffee places! This was one of your best ideas yet.

[@emilykoo9878]

This is a great video! Fun but also informative at the same time, and I liked hearing your thought process throughout - not just a montage of what the apartments looked like. Keep up the great work!

[@Gowithkt]

The agent is so real and not over the top! This is such a good video

[@ElenaTaber]

My fav kind of content! Can’t wait to see what you chose on this new journey

[@alexandraschlichting2579]

Thank you for being open about pricing. And I’ve been guessing all year that you’re in frugal mode because you’re looking to buy! Hope whatever you wish for goes your way! ❤

[@nicolechammas5800]

Cannot wait for the next episode !!! 💝

[@heyitsluucyy7578]

im obsessed with this video❤ can't wait to keep up with the moving series! you're amazing brooke!

[@tarazanni9370]

The second place he’s like “the whole thing is a project” meanwhile I’m like I love everything and it’s exactly my style 😂 but I totally get what he’s saying. Absolutely loved this video! I can’t wait to see where you and Ben end up!

[@mollysweeney1660]

I love this! What a fun next chapter for you ❤ also I totally agree with others saying you are a natural presenter! I can totally see you hosting a property show one day 😍 you’re shining so bright and you have so much opportunity ahead of you 😊

[@user-nb4fo5kd6k]

Love this video!! Keep them coming it’s so fun!😊

[@nicoleashley8235]

I think this sort of video is SUPER helpful to those looking for a place in NYC. Very cool to see!! ❤

[@MagentaPerrotte]

Absolutely love this series!!!

[@rimh7366]

This video is great. Professionally filmed. Great insights. I love already this moving series.

[@katiepoteet4772]

I feel like I just watched the best episode of house hunters with my favorite KZbinr

[@babo2oshka3]

SO IN LOVE with this style of video!!! It really demonstrates your wonderful-personable communication skills

[@Sunnyside810]

Loving the grown up content! You feel so sophisticated and mature. Love your transparency! Your real estate guide is top notch!

[@paulac4071]

Omg that first place was stunning but I almost fell off my chair with the price. Greatly appreciate you sharing

[@adrianavelazquez8423]

This was amazing and I love your agent!!

[@shyannep7133]

Great video Brooke! Looking forward to this series

[@lovelyylyndsee22]

This was such an honest and thorough video, and you are such a great host!!! This made me want to buy in New York for sure.

[@michelle2462]

i bought a place that needed renovation and now i’m so glad i did. made it exactly how i wanted and you really can work within whatever budget you set for yourself

[@Bronnybronny]

I do think you should buy! It’s just going to be hard with Ben - because yall aren’t married so whose name goes on the house who pays “rent” etc. etc. but I 100p recommend buying if you can because you’ll get your money back when you move next time - if you resell OR if you just rent out your unit. PROUD OF YOU - EXCITED FOR YOU. Having the flexibility to renovate your space is a great investment as well, because it could make you fall in love with the space way more! Rather than just spending a TON on a brand new space that you don’t specialize at all. Xxxx

[@camille_kae]

brooke we love a series!!!! so fun!

[@kaylynnreyes2708]

Omg I LOVE this and can’t wait for the next one ✨

[@rebeckabowers3276]

Truly LOVE this video!! You have always been one of my go to creators, can’t imagine 15k rent but that’s why I’m just watching the video 🤪

[@paytonholder972]

I’m obsessed with this series already!! I love the production, the transparency, and information. A lot of people don’t get to see this process, so thank you so much for sharing with us💜💜💜

[@emiliaranta3858]

This is very interesting. Looking forward to seeing more!

[@victoriarose97]

Brooke! Your vlogs are seriously addictive, and your editing skills are on point! Even though I'm miles away in India, watching your videos makes me dream of NYC life. Sending lots of love your way! 🌟🎥🌆❤

This apartment is STUNNING! The decor The LIGHT INSANE! First time on the channel before I heard what u did for a living I was like u have to make a HIGH salary to even look at something like this in Nyer....which is where I was born and raised! Thanks for the transparency! Still visit & love my home town but happy in Florida...4 beds, 3 baths and 2400 square feet. :)😊

Brooke so excited for you! Can't wait for more videos in this series. Love your presence and how you communicate with others so genuine!

[@allesae]

love your energy ❤❤❤❤

[@ibhomer1017]

Great video! Please consider purchasing something! My son has lived in the city for almost 9 years and upgrades his apartment every 2. SO MUCH MONEY! He has lived in FIDI for the past 2 and just moved again...I know you're all living your life there..but the rent $$$ just goes no where to benefit YOU. I hope you find something you love whether it is rent or buy. I love these videos!

[@magamonstah]

This makes me want to move lol thank you for this video! It was so well done

[@judyvaldez9990]

Ugh Brooke you are seriously the sweetest person!!! So glad I found you and so excited to follow along with your moving journey!

[@kristyanndelarosa]

Great job on this series! So happy for you. LOVED price transparency. Try Arizona?? 🤣You could buy a whole apartment complex at those prices. It’ll all work out!

[@stephanielake11]

I love the first place.I didn’t catch how much it costs?? If I win the lottery would consider buying it. Michelle Choi just bought he first place somewhere in NY… Love this series, you seem like you love it too & so excited!! Like others have said you would make a great host for series like this!!❤

[@maggiemorad9731]

feels like I’m watching HGTV, obsesseddddd with you & the houses

Hi Brooke!! How exciting!!! Sending you tons of positive vibes and luck on your new place!!! Love you!! 🩷🚕🚕🩷

[@emmagriscowsky2956]

The first one 🔥🔥🔥🔥 and the furniture and decor is 🔥🔥 all in haha, go for it! So proud of you, been watching you since freshmen year of highscool. Now I am a junior in university ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@emmagriscowsky2956]

Okay now that I have watched more $15k a month is wild!! Haha I love the vibe so much, ❤️

[@laurenmarting1355]

I feel like I’m watching House Hunters! Loved this video

[@amyfaurote1488]

New subscriber here. I can feel your angst. This is a huge endeavor. Sending good luck. Peace 🕊️

[@Call_M3_Karma]

I looooove the first one, but definitely knew it would be at least 10k a month! Kudos for wanting to live in that area...two months of that is a whole down payment on a home in central IL whewwwww

[@di4085]

If I were to live there I would choose Brooklyn because it has more of a HomeTown feel. But it's what fits you the best.

[@FionaSheridan]

LOVE the style of this video and the editing! It's so elevated and sophisticated

[@rachelseay4627]

Shoutout Jonathan! He is an amazing real estate agent and is perfect for this series - pumped to see more

[@aeomisso]

I loveddddd this video, but these prices seem a tad out of reach? Is it a good use of time to tour things like this if it’s not realistic? I’m looking forward to seeing the outcome though 😊

[@victoriavales7790]

The apartment was beautiful and the filming was great. I’m a little annoyed with the real estate agent saying if the pet “is registered” they have to let you in and that it’s a “hack”. Now they may have clipped it to not include the full conversation but I’m guessing he meant if the dog is a registered Service Animal or Emotional Support Animal they have to let it in. Now he would be correct if you possess the proper papers/certification but a lot of places are cracking down on those who do not have “real” service/emotional support animals. I would be careful listening to this advice and do your own research.

[@ericaaarachel]

I second this! I was looking for this comment when he said it.

[@lanamichalski3208]

It's called lying...pure & simple. So glad he is a person of character and integrity.

[@morganwagner1840]

BROOKE!! The quality of this video is insane - I felt like I was watching HGTV ✨

[@mackenzieparker9527]

Omg - I can’t wait for the next episode!! Also, will absolutely be buying your entire makeup routine. You are glowing!

Brooke your apartment looks extremely pretty pretty and clean and I am so so so grateful to watch this vlog and I will support you so so much🥰🥰🥰

[@metallicatt316]

Are you going to show any apartments that are more affordable? I’m quite sure there are apartments in New York City available for less than $5000 a month.

[@Bronnybronny]

You just look AMAZING in this video. Your face, your hair, your body is just GLOWING and so gorgeous and refreshing and then your outfit is making you SHINE and is soooooo flattering!!!!!!!!!! And then your nail color?? Just the cherry on top! YOU LOOK SO BEAUTIFUL BROOKE

[@jenniferann6312]

Ok Brooke!! We know you did well but whoa!!! You are killin it !!!!!!

[@lanamichalski3208]

Please, she can't afford either of these properties. You could tell by the expression on her face. These influencers want you to think they are wealthier than they really are. So sad living in a shroud of deception.

Stay tuned !!!!! ;)
