It's much better for dogs to have companionship and lots of outdoor exercise than to rot away in a big house on their own most of the time, with barely any exercise. I know a couple of people who travel full-time in RVs with pets, and that's a tight fit, but their dogs are fit and very chill, because they get plenty of exercise and aren't bored to death.

      I can't imagine it would cost that much to heat off you're surrounded by other units. My apartment is 800 sq ft and I live on the middle floor and haven't even turned my heat on this winter. I live in Michigan.

    I like how the space was creatively used. The only thing I would change is that huge bed taking up so much space. This unit screams for a Murphy bed. Then there would be more walking/living area. And you could take advantage of the space and view by the window. But I don't think this space is worth more than $1300 and that's being generous.

    Funny thing was that I was like, "That's a nice little place there. I think I wouldn't mind living there... And then he hit me with the price tag. Fuck that. I rather sleep in my car. I got some ideas about converting the backseats and trunk into a makeshift bed area. There is a planet fitness nearby that I can shower at, plenty of nice, modern and CLEAN laundry mats around here. Food will be a little bit of an issue since no fridge to store meats and stuff, but I sure I can just change my diet to get around that issue.

      ... I'm not saying I would pay $2300/mo to live here. But, when I drove trucks over the road, I was really impressed with how efficient, comfortable and homie a seasoned trucker could make out of his sleeper cab. And, a lot of truckers have pets to keep them company over the road. So, 300sqft is definitely doable. But, I don't personally know anyone that would pay that much to live in such a small space.
