      Unless you've lived in a rental forever or bought in any NYC neighborhood before it was gentrified, you don't get much for your money in NYC. You will find yourself constantly looking for sales. Living in NYC is mostly about, bills, bills and more bills. Another problem, the local 'mom & pop' stores suddenly assume every resident has tons of disposable income. Stores raise their prices according to the new residents, forgetting about people who have lived in the neighborhood before it was gentrified. A local longtime supermarket was renovated then the prices became sky-high. This same store was on the local news during the beginnings of the Covid pandemic, they were trying to sell a can of Lysol spray for $17.99, they should be ashamed! A local shoe repair now charges almost $20 to repair heels! The man owns the building his store is in, I don't buy that his rent has gone up!

People who are new to NYC get their ideas from other flyovers and trust fund ex-pats who think Manhattan and Bklyn are the be all and end all of NYC living! These newbies assume if they live in either borough, their 'NYC experience' will be like some fairytale! It's amazing how many NYC natives are leaving NYC in droves.

      In the 60s I had a railroad apt on E. 90th in Manhattan. It cost me less than 20% of my modest monthly take home pay. Huge kitchen, small but well functioning bathroom. I turned the small middle bedroom into a closet. Times change. Used the bedroom next to the kitchen as an office, slept in the smallish but adequate bedroom off the living room. There was entrance door to the kitchen, and to the living room at the other end. The living room had the original (1890s) window shutters and a nice mantlepiece from a blocked up fireplace. It was so nice that an Ivy League friend, whose family lived in the Dakota, took it wehn I move dot Central Park West in a shared apt. My bedroom had its own bathroom. Still less than 20% of my take home pay. Apt had a big balcony too.

      Actually its possible. You just have to be eztremly5 patient and be willing to travel further out than usual. In Canarsie, there are a few homeowners who would rent out their 1 bedroom or studio apartment for that price. They rather have a consistent paying peaceful tenant than one who has trouble paying month to month. There are some gems if you are willing to look amd travel about 40 mins to the city.

  • @bethhughes430
    @bethhughes430 4 роки тому +15

    The price is great, and I personally like the quiet neighborhood with the option of jumping on the train and getting into the city when I want to. The only potential problems I see are.....the bathroom is tiny, and it appears that you have to go through each bedroom to get to the next. In a roommate situation I'm not sure how that would work. Imagine the 1st bedroom resident and the 2nd bedroom resident being sound asleep. Then 3rd person resident comes in....LATE, or maybe early (lol) and has to go THROUGH both other bedrooms to get to their's. Not much privacy either. However......if it was just a couple it was be great for that price! You'd have a ton of space that could be really workable.
    I also feel completely stupid because I thought the TOTAL rent was $700!!! I've never lived in NY and I figured it was so cheap because of where it was and the awkward layout. Cash, no offense.....I love your videos, but usually you put the TOTAL rent price in the title.

    Love your videos man, you’re awesome, but - I think you’re really downplaying this railroad apartment and it’s ridiculous layout, specially if you’re calling this out as a 3 party apartment (only way to get to $733 rent), for undesirable this layout is typically right next to living in a teeny room with a bathroom you share with the other floor’s tenants. It’s horrible if your roommates have to walk through your room to get to theirs, (watch Bonding on Netflix to see how ridiculous it can get). I had a friend who lived on the same street, almost exact apartment (nicer kitchen), it’s a really nice place for a small family. Really hard for roommates. REALLY hard. And that bathroom!

    So no one mentioned that this is a railroad apartment. Cash Jordan love your videos, but we both know railroads are a tough sell lol! I enjoyed your positive perception branded in this video, because its apparent these prewar structures were meant for low income families landing in America pre 1960's. I'd say the target buyers for this rental are those who need a home office, someone who runs their own business and needs inventory space or families with young kids. 20-40 single demographic is almost an impossible sell...

With two roomates that was $30 dollars each! Then I rented a brand new studio apt. when I moved to the suburbs, with AC, a full walk in closet, huge linen closet, galley kitchen, one bath with tub along with swimming pool/tennis courts for just $162 a month! That same apt on the Upper East Side, now renovated goes for $2500 - 3000 a month for one person! Used to pay just 10 dollars a month for food and next to nothing for utilities! Subway fare was 35 cents a ride, movies were $1.25, a drink at a single's bar was around 2 -3 dollars! A bounced check was just $3.00!! What are the skyrocketed prices today! And we thought inflation was bad in the 1970s?? HA!! I wouldn't pay any of the exhorbitant prices today that have gone through the stratosphere since then, just shows you just how GREEDY people have gotten these days and everything keeps on going up and up..the landlords, real estate, property taxes, home insurance, the greedy banks with their outlandish fees!

    If 2 roommates, the one in the backroom has to simply go out the locked door and walk to the front door to get to bathroom, kitchen, livingroom, to give the other roommate privacy. 1100 a month each(if place is 2200 (733 a person if 3 roommates you highlighted).. so the rents would be way less than in the city for 1500 each for a more expensive place. To some that is a big saving when on a budget or saving for the future, etc. Young people might not mind some inconveniences. The tiny 3rd bedroom could just be used for an office or whatever.

    Students of mine frequently move to NYC after college - this would be a nice place for 3 friends who are just getting their footing in NY and need to save some money. Although they would probably prefer to be closer to nightlife than Home Depot and a grocery store, but I think it's surprisingly nice for the price. Thanks @Cash Jordan - I really appreciate you showing us more of the world during quarantine!

      Realtor hyperbole. Cash Jordan is truthful agent, but like a headline in a newspaper, the title is intended to catch the eye. In reality, the apartment is in Queens where rents aren't quite so high, and two of the "bedrooms" really aren't. If three people rented this unit, the division would be, like, 1400/400/400.

    I know Queens is legally part of NYC, but when most of us see NYC, we think of Manhattan. The location in Queens would work for an old geezer like me, quiet but convenient to shopping, and close to the subway for occasional visits to Manhattan - but it wouldn't work as well for the more socially active. I presume third floor, which is at the tolerable limit for old folks.
    Good-sized living room and kitchen. (How did you resist calling them "massive"?) Space for a kitchen table and/or added island. The main bedroom is also large, and a pair of those wardrobes would make an adequate substitute for the lack of a closet. However, those two walk-through rooms are not bedrooms. OK for temporary guests maybe, or for impoverished relatives who would otherwise be living in their cars, but I'd be embarrassed to charge rent for them. Stumbling past the occupants for a midnight trip to the potty would be annoying for all of us.
    This apartment would work nicely for a couple, using one of the walk-throughs as an office and possibly the other for an infant or as a hobby room. But for three productive adults? Nah.
