  • Who is paying these prices in Los Angeles? 🤔
    Come along with me as I tour a variety of apartments. From modern designs to charming, the prices are still insane 😩😭

    You've gained a new sub! I love watching a UA-camr who loves quirky old apartments. Sooo many UA-camrs who do apartment tours only look at cookie-cutter modern apartments. Also your style is just to die for!

    I didn’t get through the whole video before I was moved to write this comment. As a LA native and someone who pays $1700/month for a 1bdrm in a gated community. Stay yo ass at home lol. I revamped my apartment and am more than happy. But thanks for the insight into what the rental market is looking like right now.

    I actually just moved to Portland Oregon with my fiancé, after moving to a smaller town in Oregon from San Diego two years ago. We first moved into a “one bedroom” for $1600 I say one bedroom loosely because our bedroom does not have a door. We got on a wait list for a bigger unit almost immediately and we just signed our lease for a two bedroom that we move into next month. Our new unit $2300. In a brand new mid rise with two rooftop decks, gym, VR room, package center and Amazon lockers. Seeing LA and SoCal prices makes me so happy that we moved to Portland. I can’t wait to move into our new unit next month. I will say your apartment has a lot of charm and you can definitely work with what you have. It seems like you have a landlord that is pretty lenient and wouldn’t mind you making a few upgrades, I would replace that bathroom medicine cabinet immediately. You could even DIY something. Honestly though your space is CUTE. Don’t feel like you have to move just because your space isn’t perfect. There’s always something you can do to make it more you. I subscribed to your channel, love your personality and I love supporting other Asian people. I am Filipino and idk if it’s the same for you but I always feel a kinship with other Asian people especially in these times.

    Apartment for reminds me similar to where I live now but probably not as big not as modern but it’s similar for a brand new apt most of farmers I live in do not have a island table that I’m very fortunate I have a very spacious kitchen with a downsize is that it’s not a divided room it’s it’s a kitchen/living room so you have to think of the box to make it work functional but I do have my own laundry does have storage on the property I do have my own washer and dryer in the unit two bathrooms I do have a walk-in closet that’s a lot bigger compared to where I lived for nine years bathrooms and a bit smaller but is it’s more updated versus how old apartment that I lived for nine years so there’s like if and cons when you moved into a new apartment I like apartment for beautiful I can’t even imagine how much the rent in LA is for modern apartments

    Here in Sunnyvale California for a two bedroom roughly around 4,000 monthly rent I would think be close to LA rent cost that’s how it is out here in California in the Bay Area I would think it would be room 5, 5000 for three bedroom not including transportation food expenses electricity etc.

    I feel like there’s it’s income versus old apartment is modern apartments and sometimes they’re a lot smaller then older apartments are a lot spacious or bigger or has more storage than water apartments is a decision when you’re moving into a new apartment you might have to downsize some furniture so everything comes with it it’s in columns when you’re moving into apartment so I think older apartments and where you live it’s a lot cheaper and saving money versus these modern partners are just ridiculous in seeing how much rent is I can’t even like wrap my head around it I mean they’re beautiful but like you said it feels more cross your full view you don’t not enough spacious I guess you would say compare where you live versus appreciate what you have and stay where you’re at it will save yourself a lot of money

      @@flavienadjovi That's kinda hard because LA is notorious for low walkability and public transportation. In your case Hollywood could work to your advantage. The problem with most walkable areas are that they're expensive. I would look in Rampart Village. That's near some new restaurants and might be more affordable.

    I saw your apartment tour, and came to your channel to look for this exact video. Right?? I’m currently looking for an apartment to move into. 3rd one in 2 years…. And rent is getting worse and worse, but not only the price per month… the quality. You’ll be horrified to look on Zillow and see what people are “offering” for 1750+.. its absolutely disgusting. I’m moving to vegas after this year, im done. Fuck LA. I’m a single male so.. I don’t have the luxury of splitting rent with a partner, that’s GAME changing. The difference from an apartment going for 2k and one going for 3k is enormous. I’m talking 2 rooms, much nicer place different. Id settle for a studio since im only going to be there for a year, but you can’t find a DECENT studio. Literally 1800 will get you a piece of shit 400sqft crap hole. Mideswell spend the extra 200 and get a 1 bedroom. Rough out here for a pimp lol.
