    You answered your own question at the end. Pay way more per month and go through the hassle of moving in NYC to a place with a lesser view or knock down a wall and stay where you are for $2500/mo. No brainer.

    Stay where you are. To me having Windows and natural Sunlight is my most important thing that I'd look for if I were looking for an apartment. Sunlight means less use of electricity in the daytime and warmth in the Wintertime. Plus you can't beat the city view. If you do move, the last apartment you showcased would be my definite choice mainly because of the windows and the views.

  • @TheHonorableAngelinaNordstrom
    @TheHonorableAngelinaNordstrom 2 роки тому +118

    I would say to knock down the wall of where you live and stay where you're at. Is Gabe moving out? And will your rent remain the same amount if you renew your lease? If yes, then stay. If it will increase, find out by how much, and you might still be able to stay.I'm glad that Cash did the sink-sprayer thing. Lol

  • @MikeLaBelle
    @MikeLaBelle 2 роки тому +26

    Staying in your current spot is the easy choice from these options. But I’m guessing that $2500 price tag is going to be higher just based on the market. If you are new to NYC real estate, they can make drastic price changes between leases

  • @JroqFord

    Maybe the reason that you are looking for an apartments is more space not just a view if you have some plans or something like that
