[@humansomewhat2167]

Feel like you're the only person I've ever seen talk about living in NYC in a positive light. That shot drinking coffee on the balcony made me see a bit of the appeal again. I used to dream about living in the city growing up and seeing it romanticized in movies and shows. And then, you hear about all of the trash, pests, cost, subway horror stories, and lose that dream. Figure that you're better off staying in your little uncrowded pocket of suburbia, living a safe and comfortable existence instead of one that might push you to grow and do more.

[@brianna6906]

I mean, if my rent in NYC was only 1,250 a month, I think I would talk about living in NYC in a positive light as well lmao

nyc is crazy expensive and you'll need a roommate for sure. his portion alone is 1250 meaning that apartment is actually $2500 for a 1 bed which is why they had to build a second bedroom

[@JimBrownski]

and 2500 for that location is a STEAL... You gonna need realistically 1250 for your cut of a place....In Brooklyn or Queens. You will not be making anywhere near enough at 18 in NYC. UNless you are a Mayflower kid or trust funder

[@cheunglab]

Nice apartment and amazing views! I gather that your views of the city from your apartment are facing south, which gets the most amount of sunlight. I would have personally picked the other bedroom, but then again you have 2 closets! I also like what you did with your bedroom, which has a lot of good feng shui. Your bed could also be oriented to face the window if you ever decide to redecorate. Overall, great choice on the apartment!

[@AndrewMckieOfficial]

So awesome to see your New York journey man✨ You encourage me everyday in NYC

[@WillChousThoughts]

I was hoping youd elaborate more about how you got this so cheap, how others can, and how that compares to other prices typical of nyc

[@ohaggie]

It’s $1,250 for Brett’s portion of the rent alone. The whole 1-bedroom apartment is actually over $2000. Brett mentioned this in the original video when he found this apartment. They built a wall to create a 2nd bedroom (Gabe’s room) which is why their living room is so small.

[@Mercutiossword]

Yeah right? Otherwise what's the value?

[@dcabral00]

The sad reality is that the entire apartment should really cost that amount because the typical New Yorker does not make over 75K a year required to afford it.

[@WillChousThoughts]

@john bonjovie So you’re saying it’s possible if I get a roommate. Easy

[@Kevin-sm8pn]

D Cabral It doesn't work like that. Supply and demand. If that apartment went on the market for $1250, it would be snapped up by the highest bidder.

It's interesting to see how Gabe seems shy about being in front of the camera as always (me, too) and how natural Brett is in front of it. Some people were meant to be on cam.

[@Pacodelossan]

In a moment in the video he said $1250 for “my room” so that makes me think the real price for the whole apartment is higher if not the double of $1250! The unit is delightful plus the awesome views.. definitely not that cheap in my honest opinion!

[@masiauuu1751]

It’s $1,250 only for Brett’s portion of the rent. The whole 1-bedroom apartment is actually over $2000. Brett mentioned this in the original video when he found this apartment. They built a wall to create a 2nd bedroom (Gabe’s room) which is why their living room is so small.

[@davidthaler7018]

Gabe’s room was likely once space for a dining table, which is why there’s no closet. Still, $2500 for a “1 BR” in that area AND with balconies, central AC and a roof deck is a bargain.

[@VisionQuest057]

Holy shit I just stumbled across this; I'm a West-Coaster with a townhouse in SoCal and I'm closing on an apartment in Hawaii this month, but I always assumed that literally _any_ property in somewhere super-bougie like Manhattan would just cost about $1Million+ at a minimum, from the way I always hear people talking about it. I jumped on Zillow and was _shocked_ to see you can buy surprisingly _nice_ 2bed/1bath places for like $299K+! Crazy. I had no idea it was so affordable. I couldn't personally live there myself because of an irritating thing called "winter" which I hate (I can't live without palm trees and sunshine), but that is a very nice apartment in the video!

[@MattSezer]

There are no 2BRs in Manhattan for $299K. You most likely saw a land leased coop, where you're buying the apartment itself, but renting the land that it's on. You could be paying thousands of dollars in monthly fees for the land lease in addition to your $299K mortgage. Also, the pandemic brought rents in Manhattan down a lot with people moving out. Landlords had tons of empty apartments and were offering huge discounts. However, rents have already gone up to almost pre-pandemic levels, and you couldn't rent an apartment like the one in this video now for what he's paying.

[@VisionQuest057]

@@MattSezer Ah, crap. So I guess my original impression was correct then. Well that's disappointing but not surprising, I guess. Also I thought that whole "land lease/leasehold" scammy bullshit was only in Hawaii (I've had to jump through hoops to avoid it while buying a place on Oahu); I didn't realize they did it in other places too. That sucks :/ Man the housing situation in the US is absolute garbage right now. I guess _somebody's_ getting rich off of it.

[@MattSezer]

@@VisionQuest057 Yeah, real estate can be very conplicated in NYC. I wish it was as simple as it is in a lot of the country as just getting a mortgage and buying a single family home with the land it’s on included.
