Living Inside New York’s WORST Apartment…

[@creativemelanin]

NY really needs to get it together! These prices, and living conditions are sick.

[@graffmixer]

I was thinking the same thing. Cheaply done renovations but high rent. The crazy thing is it doesn't even come with in unit laundry. I really want to know who the hell is interested in renting these apartments.

[@creativemelanin]

@@graffmixer Exactly! I'm from Jersey, and have always considered moving closer to the city, but instead have decided elsewhere bc I refuse to pay to live in outdated and unsanitary conditions.

[@graffmixer]

@@creativemelanin I wouldn't give up on that. You can still find something with a great deal but in the outer boroughs. You just got to hop on it fast.

How can anyone afford to live in ny?Those rents are more than I make

[@Michelle-ti9ez]

When the fridge doesn’t open completely you can’t get the drawers to pull out completely, which could make it so you can’t get to all your food. But also it means you can’t properly cleanly your fridge cause you can’t take the drawers out to clean under them or even all the way in them. That’s a problem. They need to stop making spaces that are too small for appliances

[@jackies5481]

I was thinking that as well. That left crisper drawer is a future science project.

[@rickrolledtruth5834]

[@rickrolledtruth5834]

@@SL_Derby brother, i myself didn't want go there due to this warped FKD society we are in now. Since you have balls to say it.... YES that's exactly why... It's a minor thing that can easily be worked on. The drawers TURN them to side and I'm sure they will come out to clean. I remember back in the day I lived in these apartments but guess what, that's when they were really bad and landlords didn't give a F... so yea seeing how these Apts have changed from then to now and to hear something like " frig door don't open all way " smmfh lol makes me laugh at how I had to maneuver around the places I've been in nyc. IT'S NYC DEAL WITH IT... be fortunate enough that you didn't live in them back in the late 80s early 90s.

Thank goodness Charles appeared and saved the vid. Those first two apartments were diabolical. How any landlord would think they are acceptable accommodation, or can get away with presenting them as such. Pure greed.

[@j.kristineemmons]

Charles had me giggling the whole time. I stoped paying attention to the apartments and was just looking forward to hearing him 😄

[@sagittariusblu5701]

The 1st apartment with the standing water in the tub is a red flag 🚩 That 2nd apartment with all that garbage in the entrance turned me off and I probably wouldn’t 😢have even went any further because of it. Charles saved the day.

[@JaniceWithTheTarlovCysts]

I live in a nice building, since I'm on Ontario Disability, I have RGI. When I moved in, the water in the tub wasn't draining properly and I ended up with fungal infections on both ankles and feet. It took the admin in the building about 2 weeks to get it sorted out. I have 2 things against me here. I'm not French (I live in a building that used to be exclusively for French speaking ppl) plus I'm one of about a dozen apartments who are reserved for RGI tenants. Ugh. I grew up in a place that is predominantly French and could speak it quite well. Moved away at 12 and really didn't have an opportunity to speak French, so 40 years later, I'm lost. I can understand my fair share, but I don't let on because I love it when ppl are talking about me, specifically the way I dress; I'm not into senior fashion at all. 😅

[@Smart_Think]

Roach infested!

[@davidwholly5209]

I thought the same thing. If I had seen that garbage at the entrance, I would have turned around and walked right back out. That really tells you something about your neighbors.

Those 1st 2 apartments were horror shows waiting to happen. The landlords should be paying tenants to live there. At least Charles Munroe comes through for the win once again.

[@garyroelli855]

I agree. Just say no to the first two!

[@sinash]

I have to admit that I do like the second apartment at $2800. Yep... it needs work but I liked the feeling of the oldness and solidness of the unit.

[@roshi98]

Fewer things piss me off more than grossly overpriced apartments where the landlords are clearly phoning it in. The lack of pride in those first two offerings are huge red flags that any issues which might come up will not be promptly addressed.

[@rishibeauty8889]

Yet again, Charles brings the heat. I love Cash’s vids- but Charles just elevates the quality! Seriously, the 2 of you together is a fantastic duo. The banter is always so much fun!! Plus I love the bikes! If anybody trolls either of you- you KNOW so many of us jump on those comments so fast!! Keep up the great work! Happy New Year!

[@SL_Derby]

Cash shows a variety, Charles uses Cash to show high end listings. That doesn't necessarily mean Charles deals exclusively in higher quality digs... I'm sure Charles' needs the additional advertising, provided by Cash, to rent his higher priced units.

[@d0ttiej]

So true they vibe off of each other sooooo well. Steady laughing at each other, their jobs and everything. Plus his apartments are fn fire. If I lived over there I'd so go to him.

But the combination of the both of you in a video really brings out his personality. I wish you both the best and success in the new year!

It's all about the outer boroughs. My sister rents an entire house with a big backyard in Queens for $2500/month. Utilities separate though.

[@jazzpants]

2nd apartment has potential but seeing that bug and the weird bathroom did itself in. Charles always has really nice apartments, but you’ll pay lots for them. If it’s worth the money is up to you to decide. The landlord for the luxury 3BR apartment needs to fix those damages on the walls… and for almost $9K a month, I had hoped for an in unit washer/dryer and a gym downstairs.

[@Smart_Think]

Did you see the garbage piled in the entrance hallway? In nyc, that is prime hint that the building is roach infested

The big one with all the closets, shelves, and weird walkway to the AC certainly was some kind of office. Again, would love to know the history.

[@micheleg.4553]

Charles came with the win. I love that loft!

[@Bobrogers99]

The first one, no place to sleep. For $4,000 you'd get a claustrophobic sleeping slot and a basement with no windows. For $2,800 you get a 5th-floor walkup - better, but both places are tired, abused and gross. Charles to the rescue! For $4,450 you get an oddball layout but lots of space, a communal courtyard and two bathrooms. For $5,250 you get large rooms, great kitchen and a view, clean but pricey! For $8,900 you get some luxury and living space, three very different bedrooms and your own bathroom, also pricey for having to share.

[@LumpyBumpylou]

A "sleeping slot" love it😄 that could be a new selling feature and it comes with its own claustrophobic sleeping slot!

[@raaid22]

Yeah but most people can't even afford the $2,800 one on their own, so...

Anyhew, in the past, if you opened the apt door and the apt was in bad condition with debris everywhere, you would turn around and go to another apt. It wasn't sanitary for you to walk around that filth. Having said that, I agree with you in saying the apt has potential. Please give us a second tour of the apt once it's been cleaned up.
