This apt was PASSED DOWNTo her. It’s rare to find apartments with that price anymore. She’s blessed for sure
Thank you for pointing this out. Some people will really believe this is available nowadays.
How much would this normally cost?
@@jspisces83 easily double what she’s paying, if not closer to triple depending on exactly where she is. She is VERY VERY VERY lucky to have that passed down to her.
@@jspisces83 these apartment go for around $3800!
@@kreausc triple for sure. I’m sure the landlord can’t wait til she leaves lol
This should be titled: *What $1,300 gets you in the Upper West Side in 1890*
😅😂😂🤣
not 1890, whenever her parents moved in
@@chantrvll is your sense of humour from 1890?
@@LM20237 💀💀💀
@@chantrvll sadly, it might've been 1990
Beautiful place. And yes, unless one has parents who live on the upper west side to "gift" it to you it's not going to happen for ya. Well done, she's beyond lucky. And she has every right to enjoy every minute of her inherited environment. Now, what $1300 is really gonna get ya anywhere in the boroughs without inheritance is a bedroom with 2 or 3 roommates deep into Brooklyn or Queens.
Lol yup. I am sure the landlord will be thrilled if she ever moves out and doesn’t pass it on to family. Place like this would normally be at least triple that price
Back in the day, apartment life was all we knew in NYC. If your parents or grandparents were lucky enough to have a rent stabilized/controlled unit, you hung onto it for dear life..lol. This is a beautiful apartment in an excellent location. I love it!! A friend of mine had his apartment passed down from his parents and it's huge!!! 3 bed/2 bath, Living Room, Dining Room, Sitting Room, enormous closets, and wait for it....a swimming pool!!! Gotta love it!! His apt. is rent controlled and he pays the bargain basement price of $625 a month!!
Wow!!
He should do a vlog featuring his apt.
Nice to know he's still alive!
the apartment is gorgeous, her parents are smart for keeping the apartment, she's blessed for sure & she's grateful for it, loved how she designed her home, the combination of the vintage pieces with modern fixtures are perfect. I love that she does DIY, she seems like a nice & grounded person.
new yorker here: unless you have a family member in the city with a rent stabilized price like this, you're not gonna find a two bedroom for that low in the upper west side. A studio? It's doable. Definitely recommend looking for more affordable neighborhoods, or looking into living with a roommate or two (also wanna note that it's important to do some gentrification research before living in the city and make sure you're aware of the history/cultures of places you move to)
THIS.
do u/anyone have any resources for doing gentrification research?
100%. This is soooo not real for $1,300
@@lenilove3284 yeah cause it's rent controlled
right! like someone moves from ca to ny and capitalizes off the high interest of Ny appt youtube tours but doesn't actually understand that this is not how $1300 new yorkers live at all :(( feeling a disconnect rn but there's def room to learn
I don't think that this should be used as an example for anything other than complete luck. It's not relevant to 99.9% of people looking for an apartment in NYC.
Absolutely...
It's more about the style inspiration, though.
not even luck, just a blessing for her. she didn't "luck" into it, she grew into it .
yeah. It looks like the owner of her unit would pay property taxes more than her rent
@@agnesjodes3222 the person who owns the building probably only pays property taxes and no longer has an ongoing mortgage. All their tenants probably just pay property taxes and they take home a profit.
i cannot get over the way she decorated her home with many arts. It's unique and it feels like a one of a kind home
Thanks so much!
Looks like a apartment i rented in paris while ago, amazing
Her parents are super smart for holding on to it for her. And for such a good price too!! I know thats rare in NYC
Other people are forced out.
@@Heyu7her3, not her problem - everyone in the rent-stabilized apt could have made similar decisions- some passed it on and some moved -- simple
Generational wealth is nice
I just locked in my own rent stabilized apartment here in BK. While Im doing this in 2021, YEARS after her parents did the same, $2100 for a 3br with a balcony .. My rent will almost never go up again. I'm happy
Awesome girl!!!!!
wow that sounds great. How is that even possible? How did you find it?
Omg how ?!!!
Hi! How do you go about “locking in” an apt?
Congrats on finding such a sweet deal. Do you mind sharing what area did you find $2100 for 3 br w/ a balcony?! I'm a native and have never seen that anywhere...
Just imagine living in a rent-stabilized space. BLESSED ✨
That dumbwaiter really reminds you that this building has so much history and stores in it. And I wanna know EVERYTHING!!
Damn. This place is pure MAGIC. Like seriously. What a DREAM. It's EXACTLY the apartment I always fantasized about having in NYC. What a lucky lucky girl with impeccable style. 👌
If the girl grew up in the apartment and has lived there *since she was 10*, this is not a video showing “what $1300 gets you” in Manhattan. Especially not now. Super misleading and based off of privilege, not the norm at all!
I agree. Great perspective. It’s beautiful but not where realistic for today’s economy.
I get you, but I don't think this is privilege. This is just a benefit of being a native New Yorker. I wouldn't consider a family of 3 who was living in a small NYC apartment for likely almost 20 years privileged.
@@krystinac5024 I agree!!! It literally says rent stabilized in the title meaning reflective of that. Unfortunately sometimes when people click a link and see its not something they can do or get their hands on, they get upset and call it misleading.
@@BELLA-tj9ex it actually is misleading because you cannot find something this great for that price without the help of your parents which there is nothing wrong with. It’s a stunning stunning home and she is privileged (again, nothing wrong with these blessings) but the title of the video is misleading because it’s not something that people whose parents don’t own in NYC can get. Hope this makes sense.
The owners decide to sell 😬
Imagine if your parents just moved out of your family home and let you have it lol
Also as a European the constant '1890s things!' is so funny bc bruh that's modern
@@user-ed7et3pb4o Nothing about 1890 is ‘modern’ not the way they lived nor the way the thought and behaved
@@bre7931 It's not nearly as different as you think lol. But nobody's talking about behaviour anyway, we're talking about buildings. 1890 isn't even old. Those buildings were built with central heating, electricity, running water, etc.
What's so great about living in the same house all of your fucking life?
I SO loved this video, Elena.
The beautiful apartment, the personal style of the decor, the gorgeous area of New York and most of all, the LOVE Hattie has for her home, and the history of her family, (as well as, the area). She is definitely blessed indeed, but sincerely grateful, which is lovely!
Thank you ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I love this channel for the aesthetic cultivated by the renters and in places throughout the city. The comment section shows how different everyones paradigm is. The comments here illustrate how privilege (and lack of privilege) impacts everyone, myself certainly growing up without any. It's really interesting going through this comment section specifically.
there are privileged and poor pple in rich and poor Countries around the world
That’s one of the reasons I like watching these too- I think the comments are extremely interesting and insightful
This apartment is absolutely gorgeous! My dream living space. Her style is lovely!
thank you!
Just my two cents but maybe consider changing the title so that the “rent-stabilized” part shows up before having to click on the video? That aside, great apartment tour. I’m very happy for her! She seems very grateful and humble and it’s lovely of her to show us her space. Charming “Mrs. Maisel” vibes. :)
This has got to be the BEST apartment or one of the best, I don’t know which to pick, but it’s sooo freaking dope. I love this.
What a beautiful, historical place. I love what she's done with the decor, and features like the long hallway and dumbwaiter and high ceilings are so nice!
You can read whatever you like into this statement but speaking as a lifelong New Yorker and super, long-time resident of this very same neighborhood it goes without saying that privilege has its benefits and what’s fair or just is relative to one’s social status.
Nothing wrong with having money.
haters gon hate, many work hard for what they have. Steve Jobs was not born rich
@@MsDesiree39 working hard doesn't garantee you wealth. It rarely does.
Why do i feel like people are more willing to forgive this than having parents who help you buy an apartment? It really is no different. It's all luck and privilege.
@@leonore3349 i think if you work hard, save and invest smartly you can become wealthy
Rent stabilized apartments are not rare. There are 1 million of them in NYC. What is rare is one that is this cheap and this big and this location and this fabulously great. She is lucky that through a quirk in the system that this apartment is so cheap.
I love the history in her decor! I framed prints of both of my grandparents wedding pictures years ago...most treasured decor! Gorgeous apartment!
obsessed with her apartment .literally in love with the design.
Thank you!!
I've never seen someone have so much space in new York. She is BLESSED... now let me have it please
My kids will have this. Love that her parents did this for her. So blessed. Beautiful space.
Absolutely love her home as my design inspiration is also Parisian apartments with an eclectic mix of old and modern, and I love her mix of light and dark spaces where she’s chosen her paint colors intentionally. My boyfriend and I are renovating a 1950’s house in the south and it’s pretty bland architecturally, so I’ve been anticipating when we’ll get to add molding and details to bring some interest into the house. My goal is that even without furniture it will still feel cozy.
Also everybody talking about her privilege should at least still acknowledge she’s made the place her own and she’s not ignorant of her upbringing. Everything has a story or familial context. In my opinion she’s very grounded and actually pretty humble, and I am very prone to disliking select homeowners of home tour videos bc some of them come off pretty ignorant or are just pure flexing without any personal investment or interest in their space.
Thank you ❤️
This apartment feels as big as a house, but you made it a home. I'm a Bronx native and left NYC in 1990. No apartment I've lived in since, had the charm of my old NY apartments. You are fortunate to be able to live in a place so inexpensive, large and historic, for most of your life. You've made your home evolve from being your parents' home, to your grown self's home. It's a treasure.
thanks so much!!
This is the coolest series.
The esthetic of this apartment is so luxe. The decor is a big part of it, but the bones of the place also help, like the wall moldings and the double doors. If I lived there I would literally never go out lol
She is good energy. I love her style
I'm paying $1,650 a month for a 250sqft studio in upper west side lol
I could put you in a 2 bd 1.5 in midtown east for $2500
I love this episode rocks!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
omg, that apartment is stunning. As someone who lives in a dinky apartment in the west village, that apartment is actually my dream.
Thank you!
I love the Buzzed In series!
I love the details of the apartment, it’s beautiful, but the title is very misleading. An incredible 2-br apartment like this in New York City would be at least $4,000. Especially in Manhattan.
4000? One might as well buy a house.
Your apartment is beautiful. I love what you have done with it. I looks very vintage. You are definitely blessed. What an Amazing apartment. Thanks for sharing.
I am unspeakably jealous! You did such a good job!
Excellent video nice apartment
That is insane!
Love that apartment, she is so so lucky. I love her top. Beautiful design and material
Really not appropriate to title this this way. This is a special circumstance that wouldn't apply to anyone else. Most people are never going to be given a rent stabilized apartment from their parents.
As a New Yorker, I agree LOL. Very misleading.
Beautiful big apartment amazing
what a gorgeous hallway
Thank you!
Ive seen this apartment in 3 channels now! Not complaining, it's beautiful and a definite steal!
Thank you!
Lol third time I've seen the place featured on UA-cam. Hats off to her!
Haha I think this was #5. Thank you!!!
Yes 😅
This is my favourite apartment on Buzzed in so far
That rent for nyc is INSANE. I love the decor, this is class. Btw I pay $310 USD for a beautiful apartment here in Mx, 118 m2, a balcony, 3.5 bedrooms (one of them is a bedroom for the "service" that I use for storage because this is not Downton Abbey at all), laundry room, family room, a huge living room/dining room, a nice kitchen that can hold an isle and a vestibule. It use to be expensive (for mx) 10 years ago, but not anymore!
Holy crap! Such a beautiful apartment and such a steal 👏🏽👏🏽 her parents are so smart and thoughtful for being able to save it for her! So nice!!!
I loved this video. This apartment is so beautiful and it was so cool to see someone who's family history is rooted years back into NYC. I feel like that's rare! The title was also not misleading at all. It explains exactly that, a rent stabilized apartment for $1300. I love the history backgrounds you always include in your videos! Very cool.
I love her outfit 😍
Your hair is incredible
I love this series!!
I love thiss!!
This is the style I go for in the appartment I moved in this week. Thank you.
Atlantic Avenue in Brooklyn around Brooklyn Heights got several antique shops that sell furniture.
Loved this tour!!!
This is amazing. It’s such a good deal and very nice. My aunt pays $1500 (in 2012) for two bedroom apartment in Stuyvesant Town. It’s more expensive, smaller, and almost downtown while you’ve lived in Upper Westside with just $1300, so nice!
This looks like a modern version of the Marvelous Mrs. Maisel's apartment
omg i was just thinking about it!
yess omg!
Omg you're so right!!
Omg this apartment is absolutely lovely 😮
thank you!
I've been subscribed to your channel for a bit now but just wanted to say I really love these NYC apartment tours. They're so refreshing in regards to what's out there. So thank you for making them.
Wow girl I will be looking for rent stabilized now
I'm paying $2,660 a month for a 500+sqft studio in Weehawken, NJ omg
It’s so hard to believe this mansion of a apartment in NYC is ONLY $1300
Yay!!! I love Buzzed In
What a stunning apartment! It’s a perfect blend of contemporary and vintage
Thank you!
@@HattieKolp You really did a great job.
I saw a tour of this apartment on another channel. I love the way Hattie decorated. I like the idea to cover the main entrance door with wallpaper. Beatrice the cat is beautiful.
Thank you!
future home goals☁️🍃✨
wow she decorated this apartment beautifully
i feel like i have FOR SURE seen hattie's apartment somewhere before! this is a dream space, great video elena!
Just wow! This apartment looks stunning 😍 Cozy, but still spacious and the design of it is just amazing 👏🏼 And it is rent-stabilized, like what?!?! 🙂🙃
Thank you!!!
I saw another tour of her apartment and I’m having major deja vu
Omgg sameee
I am on the upper West side too! My apartment is rent stabilization as well!! I’ve been here 26 years. I have a doorman, two bedrooms, terrace overlooking Central Park. And I plan on leaving it to my daughter as well! But I’m gonna be coming and going! with that being said, she has a big apartment. My room is a nice size. And I’m not gonna even tell you how much I pay! 🤔😉😂😂
Amazing. Glad your daughter can benefit from that too! This is unheard of in England
I love it
I can understand why y’all want her to change the title because it is a bit misleading but some of y’all are being just mean. It’s one video out of the entire series where she shows an apartment that is rent-stabilized and was first rented years and years ago. She just wanted to show the perspective of someone who grew up in New York and still lives there now. No reason to call the series unoriginal now just because one video isn’t exactly the same as the others. While it may not be the most helpful in terms of managing expectations for people coming to the city, it’s still interesting and it’s a beautiful apartment to look at
Sorry, do you know what was the title before if she changed it ?
@@kaesthetyc I think it was the same except for the part in parentheses where she says it’s rent controlled
@@annelise3035 okay thanks !
To add to this, she does clarify within less than a minute into the video that the apartment is rent stabilized and that’s a rare thing in the city. So even if people clicked on the video with an incorrect assumption- they would be informed properly right at the start. Just saying, Elena is a pretty responsible UA-camr. ❤️
All of the places you've shown are gorgeous and they all have their unique style but this one is just GOALS 😍😍😍
Ahh thank you so much!!!
Hi Elena Tabernacle I curious about that that mean 2 bedroom rent stabilized? Rent sta mean vacancy apartment then move in ?
Sweet place
So beautiful
thank you!
Blair Waldorf vibes. I live in a 400 sq ft studio for $1800 in San Diego. Very cool place though. I am curious, does your family own this place and you pay mortgage for $1300? Or this is just a lease?
It is a rental. NYC has a legal system on some housing called "rent stabilization" that is a somewhat complicated rent control system. This woman inherited her apartment from her parents, she was allowed to take over her parents lease. What she has is extremely rare.
The amount of time I said “wow” watching this.
I love this! This is so so smart of her parents!
How can the only bathroom be near the butlers pantry? That bathroom was for the help, what happened to the original bathroom?
That apartment is massive by NYC standards.
i’m obsessed with this space
Thank you!!
this apartment looks similar to ones in uptown manhattan ..like spanish harlem and buildings in the bronx on the concourse. im speaking from experience that apt look very similar to mine
My parents and most family is from NY, but moved to California before I was born and I love seeing NY apartments. They are always cozy despite being in the middle of chaos. I love this apartment and the way she decorated it. It has a ton of personality.
Thank you! 😊
Where did you get that white bench?! ahhh
Wow!!!
These videos are so so interesting to watch and seeing how expensive life is in NY is just crazy, i think if you would rent this tipe of apartment in Latvia it would cost 500-800€
But this apartment looks huge!!!
for NYC this appartment is very cheap lol
That apartment in Dallas, Austin or Houston would all be over $4000 a month.
This apt must be like 10k-15k a month..
Considering she was "gifted" this rental as a "hand-me-down" from her parents...yeah, no, this is not what $1300 gets you". Very misleading title.
her place is gorgeous and idk what it is about her but she has such good energy, she j seems like such a genuine person
AWWW THANK YOU! ❤️
hii! i love your videos! i think that including like a simple floor plan drawing of the space would also be super helpful to understand the layout of the place! :))
I have one on my instagram! :)
it's so true what she said about not just walking into any mall and buying your entire aesthetic...i went into a Five Below for the first time ever today and after mostly thrifting for so long it was so disorienting?? idk consumerism is crazy
How does rent control work? If she moved out would the rent go up for the next person? Also they let you renovate rentals?
If I moved out the price would have to stay the same and go to someone else. Rent stabilization is veryyyy different than rent control. But I’m not moving out ever 😂
It looks like a blessing but it's actually a curse because you will never be able to leave that place, you are tied to it for life. And if you do leave, you always regret giving it up.
So effin true.
Plus she doesn't even own it.
(this comment will only make sense if you’ve seen Hotel del Luna, sorry!) She can always use become the newest owner of “The Guest House of the Moon." ;) Actually you know that’s really not a bad idea. I think Jang Man-Wol would approve. :)
She can leave it whenever she decides for something better in the moment. She has lived there her entire life and may actually want to raise a family there. I’m a native New Yorker and if I could live there for that money I would never leave.
Yeah, i'd hate living in the same place forever, but it'd be hard to say no.
Omg I always wondered if you were going to do this one!!
Lucky lady, I'm jealous.
This is the most beautifully designed/decorated and curated home 😍 such a cool story! I followed Hattie instantly. Love love love. Thank you Elena! ❤️
Aww thank you!!!!!
