I'm always amazed at what people call spacious and "an amazing deal".
It’s all relative
@@NineteenEightyFive Not really...it's cope. $5,500 for a 1/1 in Manhattan...lmfao. Take your pick of million dollar, potentially waterfront properties, ranging between 5,000 and 10,000 square feet typically. The "NY life" is hilarious.
@@bigm980 nothing you just said makes what I said any less true
@@NineteenEightyFive i genuinely meant to respond to annjohnson lol. Yes, what I said proves its relative. Relatively stupid imo
@@bigm980 Free Market my guy. If people didn't want them, they wouldn't cost that much.
As long as you're near a train station and it's safe, I think it doesn't really matter where you live in NYC. You can quickly and easily visit everywhere else!
Honestly props to those that live in NYC, $4500 is more than my monthly salary and I could never imagine myself paying that much for a one bedroom apartment. I live in a 2 bedroom apartment which I pay $800/monthly and I still think thats a lot. The views of NYC are so stunning tho!
What city do you live in? I used to live in Kansas City which used to be one of the cheaper cities but now rent has hiked and 800 couldn't get you a studio
dont forget even teachers earn 80k overthere, while 30-40k in other states. its just overall higher incomes and spendings. not as 'expensive' as it looks
Dude I pay 350$ for a 2 bedroom apartment with a terrance in the highest income area of my 10million people city. Granted thats really cheap and an insane deal, it should be around 500-550.
@@piero17sbwhat city
@@kkkkkkkkkkkk962 Completely different country, I live in Lima, Peru, rent in the most luxury part for an aparment with ocean view or view to a golf course might run as high as 800-1000$ for a 3 bedroom, those same areas 600-800$ for a 2 bedroom. I get why so many US citizens leave and become expats with crazy rent prices like NY
I lived in NYC for 5 years in a luxury apartment. You truly get what you pay for and it matters.The gym and pool at the top of my building were my life. I'm not going to apologize for the life I wanted to live back then because I worked my ass off to deserve it. I deserved it. Live your best life.
May I ask what do you do for a living ?
I worked in finance as an analyst. It was boring but I did travel on the company’s dime so that was a huge plus.
Yes a true New Yorker. Always having to rationalize and justify why what we spend is well deserved and ok.
Sometime we even have to repeat this to ourselves, twice. 😊
Because if we didn’t rationalize we’d Jill ourselves at the ridiculousness of it all 😂
Yes we do.@@momohead35
"you get what you pay for"... if i am paying 5k a month to live in a studio apartment i better have someone wiping my ass for me after every shit i take.
Great video! Native New Yorker here - born and raised. I’d like to make a couple of comments for people considering moving to NYC or just curious about the housing market here.
First and foremost, yesss, rent is expensive here so pls stop saying you could get a mortgage for a much larger house (in the middle of nowhere) for less than the asking rent in NYC. Believe me, if there weren’t people willing to pay these high rents, landlords wouldn’t be charging this much.
Secondly, law of supply and demand. We just don’t have enough apartments and that drives prices up. Over the next ten years, New York will need an estimated 800,000 new homes in order to make up for decades of underproduction, support a growing economy, and provide housing that's affordable for New York families.
Moving on to the actual apartments themselves. Space is a precious and rare commodity. This is one the reasons why we have so many tall buildings and skyscrapers. We started running out of space horizontally so we started building vertically. So yes, bedrooms and bathrooms are a lot smaller compared to what you’re used to in other cities. Don’t expect to have a double vanity sink or a walk-in closet (super rare) unless we’re talking about ultra luxury apartments. Kitchens are smaller and don’t tend to have a pantry. Countertop space is limited. Living rooms tend to be on the smaller size as well so don’t expect to fit a dining table.
Lastly, don’t be afraid to look beyond Manhattan. You don’t have to live in the “city” to experience New York. As long as you live next to a reliable subway line, everything is just a train ride away.
NYC has a surplus of vacant apartments since the pandemic.
@@conquerordie230 I’m assuming you’re referring to vacant rent-stabilized apartments that aren’t up to code and therefore can’t be rented out.
Same here in Southern California especially LA county you won’t find nice counter tops, space, laundry hook up, dish washer or walk in closet unless you’re looking at a “luxury” (and I say that loosely) apartment/condo that’s gonna run you a 4-5k a month!!!! 😢 everything is a luxury here.
@@conquerordie230 I own a small apartment building in Brooklyn and there are no vacancies and I have people constantly trying to buy it.
Interesting. I live in the Northern VA area and we have a ton of NYC transplants living and working down here. nice people. They always tell me that the price you see has a hidden "under the table" amount you must pay the building supervisor in order to be considered for the apartment. Is that still true or is that something that only happened in the past?
Inflation is far more harmful to individuals than a collapsing stock or property market because it directly affects people's cost of living, which they immediately feel. It is not surprising that the current market sentiment is extremely pessimistic. In today's economy, assistance is critical if we are to survive.
I have experienced significant losses, and I am holding on with the hope of recovering them. It is evident that I am in dire need of assistance. Could you please share the name of the investment adviser who guides you?
Shelby, thank you for sharing so many apartments. I hope with your sanity and health where ever you land that you make sure you have sun light. This is something that is not a want but a need. I look forward to see where you end up. Thank you!
It is always good to have a financial plan. I work with a professional planner and fixed-income strategist. I've come to realize that the key to amassing wealth lies in making sound investments.
Could you kindly elaborate on the advisor's background and qualifications?'.
I just came across her web page, I went through her resume and I must say it was quite impressive. I reached out to her and I have booked a session with her`
Scammer 🤡
People be like a good view I’m like all I see is buildings
People in NY always say that. “Just an amazing view” *looking at a bunch of rooftops*
@@SuperAaron99 right lol I be confused
It’s called a city view. It’s lovely.
I was Born in Brooklyn. My parents shared a good size apartment on Riverside Drive on the West Side of Manhattan with my Grandmother.. Eventually, parents moved to the Midwest. My grandmother soon came under rent control & remained in the apartment until she passsd..
I heard that the apartment building went condo. Originally there were 2 apartments per floor. During the change to condo it was common to convert the 2 apartments into one unit just under 3000 square feet. I would occasionally check the Condos web page. I then saw that unified apartment, where we once lived, was for sale. Asking price was $4.3 million dollars. I checked a short later & the apartment had been sold.
For the last one bedroom in the East Village, with a little creativity and a divider you could make the living area a bedroom and the designated bedroom a living area to take advantage of the light.
Great idea, as it's more important to have light in the living areas IMO, and privacy in the bedrooms
The rents in New York are outrageous. I will never forget what a CFO at my credit union (lived in New York prior to working in Texas) said that you have to make six figures all the time. I will stick to my home which I own. Not a worry about paying rent. I did rent to be closer to a job and could do it again and still keep my home. The only advantage to renting is getting a job wherever you like.
That's NOT the only advantage. Had a relative who HAD to buy a home in the middle of nowhere. He could afford it with a high paying political job. Suddenly, his state's governor was defeated in the election. My cousin moved to Washington DC. ONLY - he couldn't sell his house at ANY price! It took him a full 10 YEARS!! No not a typo! IF he had rented, he would've saved a shiteload of $$$. OWNING is often NOT The answer! Renting allows you to be mobile!
Wow, the Dime is really nice. Other than that, I like the FiDi spaces the best. As a native New Yorker, those prices are actually not bad for the current market. This just happens to be a time when rents are quite high. I also would go for an elevator, doorman building. It does help with safety, getting packages, etc. All the best in your decision making, and I can’t wait to see what your final choice is.
after covid NYC 😍🤗 thank you for your work Shelby, much love
Great video!! However it boggles the mind how these buildings have the audacity to charge so much for rent and then charge to use the amenities. With how much you pay for rent the amenities should be included.
It's what the market will bare. Just like the high rent prices. If they had high vacancies then prices would drop.
I actually like that they separate it because a lot of people never use the amenities so it’s good that you can decide whether they are worth the up charge or not, rather than everyone likely being forced to pay more in rent if they didn’t separate it.
Good buildings will included the amenities. You're watching a rich out of touch person shop.
@@WishAtElevenElevenI think everyone has to pay regardless
It's NY. Like any Major city. LA, London, SF.
I loved this. I would so love to move to New York. I liked that walk up apartment at the end, such a quirky space.
Though I am partial to L.A., I did enjoy the tour! The Dime Residences a gorgeous view and that $100.00 discount price off for $4200.00 for 1 year. It's just long enough for you to experience it! I do love the N.Y. State of mind views! 🗽🗽🗽 ❤️
I’m dying at these rental prices! That’s more than ALL my bills per mo(house payment w/10 acres in central TX), utilities, groceries (which I eat gluten free cuz I have Hashimoto’s) 2 doctors monthly appointments, medicines, 2 vehicles and 2 horses
I am so naive to what real estate prices are now days! 😮
TWO Horses is a LUXURY!
The dime looked great for natural lighting, helps when you are not surrounded by other tall buildings you lose light, part of the attraction of a tall building, Shelby the dime in Brooklyn is the best for you in New York, much love ✌️❤️🇬🇧
I loved the Dime as well! those amenities and corner views were to die for!
Best NYCApartment tour ever thank you Shelby 🙊
Don't let all these other NYC haters get you down. NYC is like no other place in the world!! Expensive yes but worth it!! I Want to live there one day. FIDI looks amazing!
FIDI is dead on the weekend though, but the subway can take you to the more happening spots...
Correct, its quite literally a health hazard and corporate hell. One of the lowest qualities of life ON EARTH
Yes NYC is magical! ❤
The way I actually got full body chills when you said $5500 a month 🙊 I thought my $3k cad 2 bed was bad 😂
Yay! You should look at the apartment buildings in queens! The value is amazing ❤️
Apartment looks so amazing !
I watch Cash Jordan and his overview of New York and prices for apartments are insane!!!
I lived in 180 Water for 3 years and they weren't charging an additional $100/mo. to use the amenities when I was there; That's so rough lol. They did charge for pool usage where it was $70/person on the weekends and $35/person on the weekdays. Also, they def built the pool on the wrong side of the building because when it's sunny, the building's shadow will block most of the sun lol
The doormen were the best , especially Lucas, who was just awesome.
These greedy landlords should be ashamed of themselves. They are taken advantage of people for charging fees left and right. Most Americans have no savings. This cost would ruin someone’s financial future
Can I send you my bills then? The building I own in Brooklyn, my insurance, just insurance costs almost $2,000 a month.
@@venom5809No one cares about landlords. Hate to burst your bubble.
But that capitalism though, nobody is forcing anyone to live there, you're free to choose.
It's extremely sad many in US are forcing Marxist policies on themselves, which is slippery slop to poverty, I know that firsthand.
It may seem unfair but is much better than forcing landlords to put price caps on the long run.
i'm on the Upper east side in manhattan for $2000/mo... oh and it's a one bedroom ... most people live paycheck to paycheck bc they're going broke trying to look rich
Even if you did one of these places for a year, it would be worth the experience. Do it while you're still young!
Add another 10-14% in NY city and state income tax into the budget and those rents look even higher.
I can’t wait to watch a NYC move in video in the last apartment you showed on this video.
I like the last one in the east village. It had a bit more character and a much more classic neighborhood
Can't wait to see what you pick!
Thanks for sharing! Very interesting to see these flats in NY
I've stayed at the first building but in a 1 bedroom. It was very quiet and nice. You can people watch all the tourists.
Love the bathroom design at 3:24
Such a great view in most of those appartments. You could probably fit a bed in the closet of the last studio, that was huge.
That's what I'd do! use the main space as living room/office and put the bed in the closet. I like a really dark and quiet bedroom and prefer to have more living space since I work from home. then you also can have guests without them chilling in your bedroom haha
The brunch spot at the base of 15 Cliff (Hole in the the Wall) is so delicious. 😋 I’ve gotten their Australian pulled pork Benedict at least 20 times over the years.
Petition for Shelby to join NYC squad
NYC is the worst place for a human to live in
@taylorbell aren't you that nyc influencer with the chubby cheeks
@@Listenimtooshyalright aren't you a rude donut
@@Listenimtooshyalright Yeah that's usually how my friends and family refer to me
@@TaylorBell hey girl!!!! 😊 See you in the comments section!!!
As somebody that lives in the Midwest, I have always thought living in New York would be just such a cool thing. I’ve always wanted to do it. Those dime apartments looked really awesome.
Ya it seems cool but nowhere near worth the price
@@IdkmanjustgowithitI don’t think money is much of an issue for Shelby at the moment, so she can afford to shop for what’s hot and trendy. For you and me, sure, none of these apartments would be worth the stress of having to make rent every month.
8:05 “There is a catch to this unit” is the motto of NYC 😂
Wow the first Brooklyn apt you would think they would have sound proof windows, here in Miami most of the windows are hurricane proof so the outside noise is pretty minimal
Brilliant I really enjoyed your video it's really expensive living in new York so really hope you find a lovely home and hope you can get somewhere with a view to I look forward to your next video
Good video, crazy price for New York City 😭 And that last one was on the claustrophobia side for me for an apartment 😅 Best of luck Shelby!
First time commenting on a video 😁 keep it up❤
It's so beautiful, love New York
Nice apartments. I ❤the outside scenery.
the williamsburg one is so cute and charming 🤧🤧get me some earplugs for sleeping and im set !
I used to live in an old walk-up in East Village on St. Marks Place and the building is actually on the cover art of led zeppelin's physical graffiti album. the bathroom was tiny but i loved being so close to all of the restaurants.
St Marks was at one point, the apex of counter culture Hippiedom in NYC!
Wow I love your vlogging style 🎉❤ Greetings from Switzerland, Susanne
Wowww, I love The Dime. Such a sweet spot
I still say I hope you go back to Cali! You just seem so happy there❤
You and Sam just need to move together there😊
Def go with the 19 Dutch one.
I loved this, keep it up :)
For one year just spend what you are happy with, but we all know you love light, just remember it is NY, not always that sunny... Good Luck! Oh, also remember you can hear all those sirens up in those apartments! You can see I am leaning more to LA... LOL.. I am back, guess you did not see the L in Chicago, it is mostly above ground... ok, back again, that bathroom at 10:20 or so how in the world do you turn it on without getting soaked or frozen?
Loved your apartment tour video! How much was the apartment in Chelsea? Didn't see or hear that price. Can't wait to find out which one you choosed!!
Also wanted to add regarding those rooftop and outside areas ... you would be lucky to use them 5 months a year based on New York's weather!
The suspense is killing me 😄
Nice hope you enjoy NYC I am thinking of spending a significant amount of time there someday
All the apartments are so good, but i love this: 7:34
Great video! Lots of value... Lots of sticker shock
This video is the best one I've ever seen for the apartment tours. These are actually really great deals!
Definitely agree!!
The one for $3800 for all the steps is not a good enough deal for all the steps. JMHO. I still think it’s nicer in Cali. By comparison in Ankeny, IA- I pay $1050 for one bedroom. I’m ground floor with exterior entrance, and washer/dryer in my apartment. Plus I pay extra $150 for an over sized garage. Great video Shelby!
Yeah I thought that place was terrible in general.
As a kid in the 1950's or 60's, I was taken to an optometrist* in the Wall Street area. For more than one pair of glasses; Saturday or Sunday morning. That area was totally dead on weekends.
* I checked. They are still in business.
The dime is perfect.
I know there's a certain magic to living in NYC but I can't for the life of me, imagine paying that much. Especially that East Village one that's the size of a shoe box for $3,500/month.
Closets in NY are renting for 3500.00. To me, that is taking advantage of a renters. However, it’s getting bad in Florida also. Rent control is really needed.
It looks like the apartments you toured in Brooklyn were mostly in South Williamsburg. If you go more north into Williamsburg, closer to L train and closer to Greenpoint, I think you'll find the neighborhood to be much more appealing--a lot prettier, more hip, with more parks and things to do.
I thought that too. I think she doesn't know Brooklyn that well though
I really don't understand why anyone would want to live in a city. I pay less than half of what these apartments go for and I have an acre of land and a 4 bedroom house. Crazy.
I love The Dime!
Lots more to see in different NYC neighborhoods. You won’t be happy in studios or East Village railroad apartment. Spend more for a safe Manhattan neighborhood, bright space. You’ll find business opportunities in NY to make up price difference
These 2 are made for each other!
I think my favorite was The Dime. Cool windows and lighting. Although, I just couldn't make myself pay these amounts for rent. Id rather live somewhere cheaper and invest for retirement.
I knew by the font in the sign i would like that place
I think if I made the kind of money Shelby makes and hung out with the same crowd as her, I would probably ball out as well.
You should come to SLC, Utah. Honestly the coolest place.
Cash Jordan would love the unit in The Dime, with the mirrored medicine cabinet.
Too bad she didn’t do the tour with Cash! 😂 He knows all about undiscovered gems no one else could find in NY! 😊
@@NormanF62 but who would hold the camera?
That would be awesome to see Shelby and Cash do a video together. Maybe one day if she moves to NYC....
@@hansonelthey have done videos together
Absolute insanity!! 🤯😂
Honestly the last East Village one is pretty good. I'd rather get a good deal with an older apartment in a good area, and they have more character!
i used to live in nyc, so these videos are so fun to watch even though i do not intend to return. OMG so small living space. claustraphobia
I am not regretting my move out of Manhattan this year, even though I still work in Manhattan.
@@user73958 i agree. i live in suburbs now. nyc commute must be tough!
village, chelsea, soho, tribeca, or upper west side 😊
Your friends voice is crazy! 😂😂😂😂
A piece of advice, when you are interviewing someone and they are answering a question or just talking in general, try to not look bored. You keep looking off to the side and it feels like you are just waiting for the person to finish speaking to ask another question.
Maybe that's just her face
Outrageous housing prices!
You could literally live anywhere else and save so much money, it's crazy.
Would love to see older apartments
The 2nd one was ok but the amenities for the win
these are great. I am looking for too as I am planning to move next year.
I love ur new place. But in truth since it’s not my place it’s not my place to comment. But it does look very bright with fabulous views. But it’s you that has to live in it and nobody can tell you what you like. I’m just happy you’re happy. As should all your viewers. X
lol. In florida that is akin to a living in a walk in closet. The things people go through to live in a city that smell like a sewage on its best day, have rats as big as cats , and roaches as tenants is mind boggling . So when she have guest over they are technically already in her bedroom while in the living room grabbing something from the kitchen for only 3300 which to them is a great deal
Great content! My niece just moved to New York and is looking in the Bronx so it's interesting to see other areas. It's weird that some places are charging 100.00 extra a month to use outside area. What about when it snows or during the winter? At least here Southern CA you can still sit outside in January. 😉🌞 As you can see...I'm Team CA for you living here on the sunny side.😄
Exactly my mortgage on a 4 bedroom house in LA is the same price as a 1 bedroom in NYC and I’m 15min from the beach in a better climate!
@@gjd424
Yeah, but in LA, you guys are dealing with the effects of climate change. I was actually just in Irvine for work, and there are just a ton of issues. Lack of water. Fires. It's like anything else when it comes to real estate. It's location, location, location. New York is a state that has access to some of the largest fresh water sources in the world. If we're talking apartments, fine, LA is great. If I were buying my forever home, however, I'd rather do NY than LA.
While crime has definitely gotten better, the Bronx is still not the safest borough. One of the nicer areas is Riverdale, but you're kinda isolated and it will take you a while to get to Manhattan from there. Plus it's not really where young people live. Queens is nicer/safer than the Bronx and is cheaper than Manhattan or Brooklyn. Don't even bother with Staten Island! I'm a life-long New Yorker and don't think I've been there more than half a dozen times! 😂
@@dontbanmebrodontbanme5403 Well, Southern CA is not only L.A...San Diego is in Southern CA and it's beautiful. Yes, lots of climate drama happening here but it's happening everywhere not only CA. However, I agree with you regarding NY water...it's delicious!
@@dontbanmebrodontbanme5403 Wow! Thank you for that info! Will def pass on your info to my niece...very helpful.
What's the price for the Chelsea Studio 13:45? You didn't say it. Thanks
Long time New York resident…If you work in an office consider short commute… best if walking. You’re young…..choose a happening neighborhood!! Not Wall Street. If possible have a southern or eastern exposure. Sunshine can be more beneficial than a view. Brooklyn can be very cool?
Great work on your video.
i dunno why i like watching these videos. Im not gonna be getting a NYC apartment anytime soon
Same for me hopefully in the future when I'm older I can 😅 because its a dream
Some apartments may be cheaper but you need to have that 40x the rent and 650 or above credit score so what ever the apartment cost times that by 40 these are definitely the areas I’d love to live in
I'm renting a studio for my daughter in East Village who is an NYU student - Loves it there.
WOWWWWWW those prices 😵💫😵💫😵💫😵💫 my last apartment in Chicago was a spacious 1 bed, 1 bath with a pool & parking spot in a garage for $1,425/mo 😲 now I own a 2 bed, 2.5 bath townhouse in the burbs for $1,700/mo mortgage
If I were to move back to New York I would live in Brooklyn, Queens, Yonkers or Long Island. I would probably look for a small town house rather than an apartment. There are few of them in between buildings. I use to live in the Heights, and I miss it, and around there I would probably live closer to the Hudson on the West Side heading towards Riverdale in the Bronx. Growing up in the Heights the rent was about $590 a month when I moved out of New York in 2005. It's completely different now from when I lived there, a lot less small shops. I'm hoping its gotten better when I go back to visit. I like the West Side better and if I had to live on the East Side I would just go to Brooklyn rather than be on the East Side. I like Queens, it has some beautiful parts and there are so many small shops. However, I also like Brooklyn. I think if you're going to pay that much you might as well rent out a town house in Brooklyn or Queens.
I have no clue as a european, but shouldn’t the townhouses be even more expensive?
I live in Westchester County about 30 mins from Yonkers. It's a CESSPOOL of CRIME and dysfunctional government. Only blue collars and minorities like there!
If you are still considering NYC try looking for apartments in Long Island City
Criminally high rent prices. Oh, but we justify it by saying that's just the way it is because, New York.
If people don't pay, they will drop the prices or else they will bleed cash lmao. People are obviously willing to pay. The only thing criminal going on here is how you don't understand the basics of supply and demand.
New York is one of the greatest places on earth in which to live. Poor people can live elsewhere.
I mean every big city everywhere around the world are criminally high it’s just normal tbh
@@Charlierose214 Forreal, wait till he finds out how much it costs to live in Singapore, Shanghai, London...lmao.
Notification squad!!!
