Omg it was the best option, that apartment was waiting for you!

[@CassandraMooree]

Very fun informative video, love your narrating style as well!

[@annaalbuquerque1583]

That new building was amaaaaazing, compared to the others it's really a huge find, the lounge is fire for wfh. Now we need a moving video.

New subscriber here! My KZbin recommended your part 1 of this series for your apartment hunting & I'm so glad I found your channel! There's not many male creators that show apartment hunting + I live in Arizona, but it's really motivating/entertaining to see the New York lifestyle! You have such a fun & calm personality that makes it enjoyable to watch your videos! Can't wait for part 3 hopefully 😄 Also, CONGRATS on getting the apartment 🎉

Been living in Jersey City since late of 2019. And the main reason I prefer to live in JC than NYC is being able to come home and unwind from the busy work/life of NYC. Right now, JSQ is gentrifying more and more, so you’re in a good market. BUT, don’t expect that rate to stay long. If possible, do a long rental lease. And who knows, if you’re able to find a new home and want to move out, you could try to sublease it. When I stayed in JC, there was a brand new apt building 10 min walk from Grove St. I stayed in a 1 bedroom 7XXsqft, high ceiling. It was only $23XX. Now, it is going for $3XXX. When I was moving out, someone is already on stand by to receive my unit 😂.

4:12 smart! Carry mouse traps with you when visiting open houses to reduce the competition 😄

[@indeacia]

im so invested! cant wait for part 3

[@aznash]

union city is also an option especially along park ave closer to the lincoln tunnel. I used to live there and had parking & gym in the building and a supermarket within walking distance. I also had a 2bd for the price of what some of the more expensive jersey city studios were going for. There were 2 different bus routes with multiple buses so getting into the city was never an issue.

[@andiarbeit719]

Congrats! Looking forward to part 3

[@linkheroofwinds]

LOL I looked at 45 River Dr S too when moving here. Glad we both read the reviews

[@linkheroofwinds]

Also, if you work in the city you still pay NYC city tax right?

[@OllehRebelz]

Not from what I heard from others and read online

[@linkheroofwinds]

​@@OllehRebelz ah I think you might be right! Well that's reassuring since I could end up switching offices from Jersey to NYC

[@bonniepwtf]

Congratulations 🎉 I hope you will be very happy there!

[@faheemrahman]

Congratulations on getting the flat!

[@cho9496]

좋은 아파트 잘구하셨네요 !

[@jeremyz615]

SIT 25 Spring here, online searching apt for 2 weeks now, I recognized the last building as soon as I saw that white column 😆

[@diakim753]

I'm kinda surprised! The prices are more reasonable than i thought. I've lived in NYC my whole life and am shocked you can get a 1 bedroom in Jersey for under $3k. Maybe the market is taking a turn.

[@DWAnton]

It’s funny cause an in unit washer and dryer is not standard in most apartments in nj when you compare it to other states other than ny, and if we’re talking about price 2600 for a one bedroom is insane, let alone 2100 for a studio. That has little to no amenities. I live in downtown Charlotte NC, live in a one be luxury high rise and pay $1800 and it’s absolutely massive, with so many amenities, like a full fledged gym, outdoor pool, clubhouse/lounge, cowork space, and more. Easily would be 2800++ in NJ, glad i got out of there.

[@OllehRebelz]

Lol yeah cuz it’s NC

[@Scsibut]

Welcome to New Jersey. Don't forget to get yourself a Taylor ham egg and cheese sandwich for breakfast.

[@phanuphong]

I am waiting for your fell review of the new place 🎉

[@tarsierr]

as freshman at nyu rn I might just go to jersey after this video

[@ALifeofPeculiarity]

Congrats!

[@aspiceoflife]

Where is the Buy version

[@FunkyChild718]

Just buy once rates are low. I pay only $900 for the coop fee for a 700 sq foot 1 br coop that I own on the UWS. The fee hasn't went up in 10 years.

[@axelferia]

you gave me some hope

[@karlitop7497]

I’m in Bayonne by the bus and lightrail . 3 bed one bath on a three family house for 2k. I love it. By a bunch of shops and restaurants. I have a deck and we share the backyard.

[@Undecided0]

My friend moved from The Bronx to Bayonne. He was able to get a 2 bedroom 2 bathroom apartment for $1500 a month during the pandemic.

[@RubmaLione]

There is no such thing as a luxury apartment in New Jersey, only upscale 😁

[@MrMlbfan6]

Jersey is better to live at .

[@karenclark8374]

Heads up! You pay NYC tax if you work in NYC and live in NJ. You will be double taxed.

[@OllehRebelz]

Not true if you live in NJ. What I heard from a lot of ppl and saw online

[@karenclark8374]

@ NY State charges tax on any income that is created in NY. If your paycheck comes from NY, you pay NY taxes.

[@OllehRebelz]

State tax, yes. City tax, no.

[@Hrathen39]

No city tax that's a separate tax. City tax only applies to those who live in the five boroughs, and Yonkers? Anyways that's why I decided to live in jersey city over NYC. Commute time is the same anyway
