    When we moved in to our basement apartment we put our own mailbox outside our door and labeled with BSMT and we include BSMT in our address. It helps for the most part in getting our mail delivered right to us.

    Thank you for this video. Living in a basement isn’t as bad as people think. I live in a basement and I’d have sworn that I’d never live in one.

      You’re welcome. I wasn’t even aware that people had a problem with basements till we got one. Lol!

      Do u experience mice ? I’m so afraid but haven’t seen Amy blemishes in the baseboard no cracks or holes

      @LifewithKrystle 3 роки тому +3

      I’ve lived in one for 12 years now and it’s not bad at all. I just wish we had more windows but it forces me to go outside more to get some sunlight.

      Yes. There were mice there when we first moved. It was quite a terror!

    Many basement apartments won’t have bathtubs, especially if it’s a old home that was renovated to have a basement apartment. It’s easier to add a stand up shower and that’s one thing I dislike about basement apartments. The extra $500 a month compared to the upstairs is definitely a positive aspect though.

    A good basement apartment honestly depends on how it was made. I find older homes where the basement was unfinished initially can be very hit and miss. Especially if the people did a cheap crappy reno job. They are also most likely to be illegal cause of small windows or none at all and many other things not to code. Basement units that were made to be livable in the first place in newer homes are usually MUCH nicer cause they were build with livability in mind. They also are often higher up from the ground and have bigger windows that actually let in a lot of light! and big enough to fit through in case of emergency.
    My first apartment ever was in a basement unit of a century home and it showed lol. It sucked but it would have been worse. My fiance also was in a basement room but it was a house build in the 70s/80s so the basement was actually build as a rec/living room so the quality was much higher. It makes a difference!
