Best of both worlds: Rent a loft in the first, less expensive, building, and make a friend in the more modern building so you can access the amenities. 😁
My daughter lives in a renovated factory in Indianapolis, a 20 minute walk from downtown. She pays 1350 for a huge one bedroom with a full kitchen with bar sitting and has a huge walk-in closet. Her favorite feature, the underground secure parking that she only pays $100 a month for. I'd rather live in renovated buildings like this full of light, than a closet just to be closer.
Yeah in Indianapolis, say less lmao!! I fell asleep midway through your 2nd sentence thinking how bored she is. And I love Indy - that's my Momma's hometown, but she is overpaying by Indy Standards. She could live over by the fairgrounds in a bigger place for about 300-500 less. And still be 20 minutes from NOTHING aka downtown Indianapolis lol. Comparing Indy prices to NYC or any town folks actually go to for fun is some "Im from a small ass town in middle America" nonsense talk. Two different animals
@@JimBrownskiagreed not apples to apples but don’t have to be so harsh. I live in Birmingham, AL and pay $1309 for one bedroom with 920sq feet sitting over a small lake that I can see from my bedroom/bed and living area through floor to ceiling windows. Birmingham is a lot smaller than both and rent is just crazy everywhere these days. We have a putting green, benches/mini lake, multiple grilling sections, a pool and hot tub that sits over the lake, decent gym equipment, paddle boats for the lake, tennis courts, and walking trail around lake and in back of property.
I’ve been here 5 years… when I first moved in I got a deal and was paying $750.
I make 6 figures which is a lot for a single female in Alabama and I could buy a house but I travel too much for work and pleasure to want to keep up with a house and yard and it’s worth it to me to be able to call my maintenance guys just when my ice maker breaks or I want my air filter changed 💁🏼♀️
@@JimBrownskiwhat cities would you say are is the best places to live in America outside of New York?
@@GalaxyFluke it is worth it to buy… IF you plan on living in that dry town ( be honest - Indianapolis is Manhattan compared to B’ham !) for a long time. You just pojnted out how your rent has doubled in 5 years and you are getting no equity. You have now excuse not to own making six figures in a boring Market where you can still buy a house or condo for under 300k. 1309 would only get you one bedroom in the projects of the Suburbs in DC- but luckily I bought in 2016 and refied when the rates were low in 21! You get no equity renting- buy somewhere dear- stop making your landlord rich. Hell you could have bought a downtown condo for less than 200k 5 years ago there!
@@willkirk9555 New York isn’t on my best places to live lol. It’s not on anyone’s list except for struggling actors/comics and bankers. So anywhere besides NYC is better than NYC lol. Boston, DC, Tampa, Austin Tx , Nashville , Chicago, Denver, San Diego , Houston, Charlotte NC, Raleigh and Durham NC, Asheville NC, Madison Wis, Kansas City. Oh and Portland Oregon.
Miami, LA, DC,( my hometown), Seattle, Boston, and the San Francisco Bay Area are all super expensive but nice. But for best value ? Philadelphia easy! Only 2hrs by train from NYC or DC. Great food, very good public transportation by American standards, and waaaaaaay cheaper rent and homes than their nearby neighbors. I also really really love Chicago, it’s all the fun of NYC, just colder. Plus you can go from downtown to the beach in less than 10 minutes in the summer lol. State wise? North Carolina wins in a rout. Still affordable for now too! I mentioned my 3 faves there and each is awesome.
Saw you on CBS Sunday Morning, congrats! You made it to the big leagues!
Was it the show Sunday Morning, or just on last Sunday morning? If just on last Sunday morning what show was it on.
@@judylapointe3507 the show CBS Sunday Morning
@@judylapointe3507 since "Sunday Morning" is capitalized, one would assume it's the show.
Thanks!
@@CashJordan Yes, I was watching that segment, and thought, "Hey, I recognize that guy!" Congrats on the exposure; bet your subscribers increase a lot!
I love #2! The vault is such a cool feature and being able to fully stand up in the loft area makes a huge difference in its functionality.
Just don't get locked in the vault!
Agree! The best of them all.
What the worst part if you do get lock yourself in the vault with no phone signal and no one looking for you that would bad
Yeah I love apartment 2 with the safe? Love the old New York apartments! As a Brit it was a dream when I was younger!
Yeah I’d love that safe! Shame you couldn’t get out though!
Best lofts I have seen ever. Units 2 & 4 are the winners for me because I would be able to stand up in the lofted spaces. Not too concerned about not having a dishwasher as I wash my dishes by hand as a single guy. And I don’t generate much in the way of dirty dishes either. Don’t need the amenities of the second building, the first building has just the right amount for me. Yeah, all around great units today.
Cash, You have such an excellent eye for detail. Every shot is precise- your edits are tight and well balanced. Your energy is so enjoyable and your humor is always on point.
Keep going!
☮️👏👏👏👏👏👏
These were all great. I'm most impressed by the sturdiness of the stairs to the lofts & the fact you could actually stand up in them. They often seem like a dangerous addition that an amateur constructed. Nice finds!
Agreed. In the old factory lofts the staircases should have been made with wrougth iron stokes as well as the 4th one should have had metal pillars under the area of the loft--it looks like the wooden ones could crumble at almost anytime! 😨😨😧
$2850 the first one 😂 that’s excessive for that apartment 😮 , “does it have amenities?” Yes with have doors and floors 😂
I actually liked them all. The 1st building had more character but the 2nd more amenities. The 2nd with the walk-in vault was definitely quirky. 1-4 were pretty basic but still nice. & so much room in each!!! Just not sure about the gas heat units. Probably put a carbon monoxide detector in each room for that reason
I vote for Apartment #2-no, wait, #4-or both? Those windows, the exposed brick, weird quirky doors. Modern loft is very pretty and polished, but can’t win against quirk.
But the neighborhood sucks😂😂😂
WOW! Crazy great places! I can't pick which one's my fave..love them all. But the last 2 had the most space and the kitchens were functional and pretty. 😊 Thanks guys for the great video once again ❤
Finally! Flats I would want and could afford if I wanted to live in New York! These wont stay on the market for long.🇬🇧👍
I loved all of these loft apts. Especially #3. Something about these industrial lofts is very appealing to me. Take care Cash❤
Cash out here changing the world with the informative videos of swag!!
LOL! The Landlord didn't put too much money into these renovations! The first basement unit at $2850/month was only some gray and white paint, a bookcase from Ikea, a refurbished stove and fridge, and a few leftover cabinets from the other units! LOL! But ya know... I could work with it were it not for that loft space. If one cannot fully stand upright in a space then it's just aggravation, IMHO. However, it is a good space for the price. The second first floor unit at $3550/month was much better, and it's my favorite because those wood floors, exposed brick, and that safe, hooked me! (Loved the Mother-in-law jokes and it looked as if a twin bed would fit). The two bedroom (chop, chop, chop!) at $3550, month with the half window...no. That fourth unit at $3550/month is a much better option because of the diversity of space and what one could do with it. Also, I loved the isolated kitchen, those cabinets, and those wood floors! But, for $300/month more I would consider the last unit because of the amenities and balcony.
Finally! Room for my pool table!
This another one of my favorite videos from, because love loft apartments, I like the last 3 of those apartments, lots of open spaces in different rooms, to put my music studio in or my home gym or home theater
"Was this an old warehouse or something?"
"Ummm something along those lines"
*discovers massive floor to ceiling safe* 🤑
Praying that sweet doggy made it home safely to its family 🙏🏼🥺💜
These places are SO COOL and GREAT PRICE😮 Really fun video❤
These are the best loft apartments I've ever seen. They're really nice so they meet most renters' criteria, but they're quirky enough to be interesting! And you can't beat those prices! The last one is very pretty, the building has great amenities, and the kitchen and bathroom are higher end. But I prefer the loft and industrial spaces. James is also pretty great!
Man todays apts were absolute winners. Can see all of them getting swept up in a month. Great video!
Not bad, but I liked the last one best. You get more bang for your buck. I wonder what the neighbourhood is actually like? I'm guessing it's not _the_ safest one...
Exactly. That's why the apartments are so cheap.
I love these videos and always look forward to seeing the latest sites and sounds of NY streetscape and living. Keep up the good work.
Happy Monday all
Oooh, you crushed it today! I think 3 and 4 were favourites though. That great long side wall I can picture with loads of books on it. Saying that, I loved 5's amenities. Great show today, Cash. Thanks.
Love this is different and not boring ,when you give us variety then you never know what you are showing ,then you have to watch
The old factory building: the last apartment was better than the first; although all 4 are still considered dated IMHO; but LOVE the 5th apartment in the new building across the street (especially with all the amenities!).
Thank you for sharing.😊 Yes, I like the 4th abd 5th apartments. The kitchen look in both are the selling features.😊😊
Oh wow, these are all great. The second building maybe has less character but I appreciate how light and airy the apartments are.
Absolutely great lofts..you got a lot of options on this one..thanks Cash..enjoyed this video 💯🤙🏾👍🏾
My favorite was the last one. The bedrooms were livable, and the amenities were worth the extra $250/person.
Love these loft apartments. The ceiling height is special. I think the heating is included but may be very expensive to cool in the summer.
The second one with the natural brick wall I love it
#1 has tons of space, but I'd hit my head in the loft. #2 is bigger and more finished, and except for the pipe the headroom in the loft is quite adequate, which explains the higher price. #3 could be shared, making the per-person price affordable for many. #4 has the pipe-headroom problem, but it has tons of storage and a bigger, separate kitchen. #5 is the most expensive and has nice finishes, and it's in a building with many amenities, so for a two-bedroom (plus loft) you get the most for your money.
Thankyou for showing me all the cool neighborhoods in N Y.I went to college in Bostonand lived ther for 13 years. I loved Boston in the 70”s
A functional vault?!? I'm sold. Though it may imspire guests to want to know whats in it 😅
These lofts are all fantastic and quite affordable. It’s difficult to pick a favorite. There’s so much light and space.
This is Gonna b Really Cool CJ🔥🔥🔥👍n Happy Monday😀….
Congratulations cash I saw you on cbs this morning talking about the real estate market 👏🏾🥳😃
Wow, that’s the first time I’ve seen an apartment with a lock in closet!
Theses lofts have amazing windows! Unit #2 is probably my favourite. Can definitely see myself living in these lofts. James is a cutie.
I love the lofts' style. Especially that 2 bedroom. 😍
Bro the 2nd spot my FAV! OMG that is the Bachelor Dream!!! Inspired!!! Thank You
Love these lofts a lot
i like the 3rd apartment the best. i LOVE warehouse looking apartments and they have 0 where i live. the high ceilings and exposed pipes and brick .. so industrial and sooo cool to me!
The newer building with air conditioning over the older building. The last apartment shown works best for me.
I like them all but.... My two favorite are number 2 & 5. I like the brick in number two and number 5 is really nice really nice bathroom. Thank you for sharing😊.
That kitchen 13:04 was nice!! Very functional!
They’re all fantastic but I’m loving the second one so far.
real good job cash. injoyed it.
Love The Second Loft Man !!
Hi Cash and to your friend, wow this is a gorgeous and spacious NYC loft. I hope someone will rent this gorgeous loft. I would enjoy living in a simple loft apartment, if it is convenient to shops and a safe area in NYC. Stay well and safe 👍😀I like the second loft apartment 👍actually now I prefer apt no 3 I like the closet doors. 👍
#5 all the amenities and the balcony. Oh my goodness dont forget the jacuzzi tub❤
Apartment #3 is amazing 👏. I love it.
That wasn't a "water heater" on the roof. 13:38 13:49 That's where the old wooden water tank was. Without that water tank, do all those red fire sprinkler pipes in the building still work?
Perhaps those pipes get their water from, oh I don't know, the City?
@@vincentgoupil180 Thanks for mansplaining that.
@@vincentgoupil180 I find it amusing that you think I was complementing you.
@@theoriginalbridgetconnors I doubt that. The NYC water system already has enough leaks. I don't think they are going to send treated drinking water into a private building's fire sprinkler system.
@@vincentgoupil180 I believe you are mistaken on the purpose of water tanks in buildings. Very tall buildings may need water tanks every few floors to maintain water pressure, but they are inside and you will never see them. Those wooden tanks, ubiquitous on roofs of older NYC buildings, are to supply the fire sprinklers.
The 3rd apartment is my favorite so far!!
Dang! Cash Jordan! Bro You be crushing it! More Power to you!
That first building had an inflatable pool on the roof. All fantastic. Curtains just get clips and material. Love the safe/safe room.
Loved all of these,
Second building has great amenities, but the first building has great charm. I'd definitely live in the first building.
0:45 Nothing beats local Soylent Green.
Cash, I love the fact that someone as young as you are could give a Rube Goldberg reference (the brick in the factory door as an opener)!
Saving this for when I move to nyc
Awesome job cash see you tomorrow morning.
Why rent an apt where a normal person cannot even stand up or u need a ladder to access part of the space?
It’s an apartment attic lol I wouldn’t be mad
All these lofts are the best!👍
Just wonderful!
u the men Jordan!💪
Absolutely Love Awll 3 Of These !!!! ...
Smh .. My Anxiety Is So Peaked Now to Go Home ...
Love You Cash Jordon !!
With all the time I’ve watching this channel and the countless buildings, the amenity I would most love is a steam room.
Though I’m pretty sure the other tenants wouldn’t enjoy seeing me sitting around in just a towel!
These were some really solid options. 😊
Those lofts are dope.
Loved number four and number five. Each time you showed one, I said oh this one is nice and then the next one came and I said oh no I like this better so finally by the end of the video I finally made a decision. Four or five... That's it for me😂❤
Why is nobody renting those?! They are spacious and cheap. -Wow. Can't really beat a character filled loft.
They are NOT cheap lol and REAL New Yorkers know that lmaooo
LOVE apt. ONE & TWO & FIVE. Love James. xoxo
2nd and 4th apartment: I am digging a lot. If I lived in NYC this would be it. Love the style.
Wow what a steal. Great light, great space, great kitchen great price
He did not just say "window AC" 😂😂😂
Great loft!
the first place can sectional it off for another room. under the upstairs place. so could make it 2 beds for 1,500 each. the second place can be sectional off for another room and split the rent. or makes great area for photography studio for portraits shoot or other photography studio. the 4 place can turn into photography studio and still have bed room and other stuff you need. the upper bedroom can be use as editing place and storage area to keep gear locked up if get broken into. first place with 4 bedrooms has tons of options for use. the fifth place upstairs area would be used to hold and lockup all my expensive camera gear if downstairs area has room photography studio but upstairs for editing stuff. out side area great for photographer areas for portraits area. also this best 5 aprt you shown in long time
🎶🎵”I’m gon-na make it, af-ter alllllll!” **tosses hat in the air** 👒
2nd Loft is very nice, spacious (1st isn't bad). Apt. 3 has a great kitchen area and bathroom. Apt 5 sold it with the multiple bookshelves; kitchen could be bigger for that price. The apt in the other building overall with the rooftop views is very nice for that price, especially with the sauna, pool and closet space.
2,4,5 are the best. I love the idea of a lofted area
That niegborhood has so much character…. Reminds me of Portland Oregon before the pyros, junkies and homeless destroyed the city.
The amenities of building 2are great, but building one- every one of those apartments was fabulous!
Criminals will somehow manage to get into those ground-floor mesh windows.
You had me with “The Pool.”
I like rustic. After all I do live in an old stables. This is my jam rather than apartment 5. Thank you. May you all please take care and stay safe.
I LOVE loft apartments so any of them would suit me. Each one was better than the previous one but I'm partial to #4 which felt like it had the most character. But where's the bathroom??? In general I think the quirkiness of the older converted building was nicer despite the amenities of the modern building.
Jordan Cash is in "CBS Sunday Morning". 😂👏👏👏
The lofts were all great. But I can’t have those steep stairs. I’m surprised that they were vacant. Yjey were great.😊
Love those lofts
Ah man....
What would be cool for the one where you need to get to door with ladder.
Build a ladder against the wall which folds out. You could build it so you could hang blankets or comforters on them when not using.
So many ideas
Favorite one defiantly the last one.
The one bedroom is amazing you're gonna be able to work from home and have space for fun friends etc
The lofts were amazing
I love the last one!! Congratulations Cash on reaching 500k subs 🎉😊
CBS News Sunday Morning! Congratulations on your appearance yesterday, Cash! (5/22/23). As for that unit with the safe, first thing I would do is jam the latch. Don’t need any visitors going missing 😅
Wow love these loft apartments, if I lived in New York would get these for me and my two adult children perfect space for us
