Did you have a favorite??
I guess I am easy to please, because I loved all of them. I guess my favourite was the lower unit bridge view apartment. I also liked the New Jersey facing one (number one). A lot of storage, the view looked calm, I like rooftops and industrial views. I would have to watch the video many times to take it all in. Maybe the Empire State Building view one is my favourite. The second bedroom would be a gorgeous office. I'm just dreaming!
You're right! The river (New Jersey) view was peaceful, I was too harsh in my judgement toward it :-) I was just hoping they'd have some higher floor units with more of a city view and less of the neighbors but no luck.
Seems like you like Central Park area..probably more money and not so many new buildings but, it worth it. Also, East Village was fun with views of older buildings. Yes, not much privacy but tis is New York! privacy goes for much more $. I am in same situation looking ether to buy or to rent in NYC starting this summer...Thank you for all tips to look for :) I also have a dog and same requirements for a park nearby. I also like lower buildings area with more "air". Wes village perhaps? :)))
I think despite the sort of dated interiors, I would probably pick the LES unit with the 2B/2BA higher up because I just love that whole section of Manhattan
Exciting! Thanks for the tour. I would say #4 and #10 were my faves. Good luck!
Thanks for watching! Agree with you on those newer buildings. Nothing beats the floor to ceiling windows like that :-)
I liked the last two.
Good luck with the search guys. I loved the last building’s finishes and the views 🤩. I often think about moving downtown but am loving my UWS location near Lincoln Centre, with both Riverside and Central Park in easy walking distance. I do love your current space but hear what you say about older property issues.
Thanks for commenting! Your location sounds ideal, it's definitely on my wishlist.
Wow the prices in NY are insane for rentals. I would prefer a balcony
Agree, we've never had any private outdoor space in the city - it would be nice to have a garden there.
I'm also looking and fully agree about all those hallways and doors - not great in a small space. I also really liked the last one w/bridge views. BUT are the amenities worth the extra 💵 (plus noise). Have you considered Roosevelt Island - it has everything you want - - very pet friendly too! Cheers, Good Luck and thx for the restaurant reviews!
Thanks for watching! I have not looked at Roosevelt Island, that's interesting... Have you lived there before? Would I have to take the cable car or the ferry every time I need to go anywhere? Shows you how unfamiliar I am :-) I'll research, thanks!
You and Ted mosby so much in love with Empire State Building… I mean , what’s the big deal?
The last building changed the game 🔥
Right?! Just wish the location was better...
The last building is my fave. I’m also pretty sure that’s where Alex Costa lives based on the views and layout.
it's a great building, the views are so worth it! If we were fully freelance and didn't have to commute, I'd rank it high on my list.
WOW, WOW, WOW, I’m still trying to understand the prices for these apartments. I hope whatever apartment you choose you sign a 2 year lease--GOOD LUCK!!!!
Thank you!! I know, it's insane and keeps getting higher every year... But it is what it is I guess in exchange for being here.
music in the intro : "third banana", Martin Landstrom.
I spent a lot of my life (and money) living in central London. Looking back, I really enjoyed the city vibe, but I think it would have been more sensible to live in a cheaper suburb and commute. I just mean that I’ve probably paid enough to landlords to buy a place outright. Also I’d say don’t assume that your current salary will go on forever. Anyway just my thoughts, good luck and best wishes!
Thanks! You're right, can't expect anything to last forever... But it's either rent or mortgage, and mortgages are even crazier at the moment. 📈
Nothing like a big old roach in an expensive apt.
We've seen a few more in other buildings that I just didn't film 🤫
I’m always frustrated with these apartment hunt videos where the hunters must-haves are 2-bathrooms, but waste time looking at apartments with only one bathroom. Why bother?
Easy! When you stay longer to one video they earn through longevity! So you see unnecessary stuff (based on what you click for) just for some extra dollars in their pocket!
When you come to a big building for a tour, they often show you multiple units they have. Plus you can never get all the things you want in NYC, sometimes it's a trade-off: maybe sacrifice another bathroom but save $2K and gain a balcony. Doesn't hurt to have an open mind and be flexible.
This is a small channel with videos I make for fun. No one gets paid here but I appreciate your comment! 💸
@@KateOstre If you’re flexible and open-minded then don’t include “must haves” that aren’t really must haves.
👮🫡
Must be 2 bed and 2 bath 😂
What are the addresses of the buildings?
606 West 57th Street
509 Third Avenue
105 West 29th Street
11 E 1st Street
225 Cherry Street
you were just really picky about things I thought were quite miniscule for those price points... (I would have to close the blind every time to take a shower... aw poor you).. you also seem to have a fixation on the Empire State Building.. meh.. the prices though.... why are you not looking to buy.. that is just insane. 60-100k a year on rent.. no way in hell... I think Warren Buffett would call you stupid.
"you were just really picky about things I thought were quite miniscule for those price points"
Uhh.. Coming from someone who pays close to these prices, anything that is "miniscule" is pretty significant for living anywhere for a significant period of time, ESPECIALLY in NYC.
"why are you not looking to buy.. that is just insane. 60-100k a year on rent"
Welcome to NYC? I've taken you've never had to work in the city, let alone make anywhere close to enough to afford something like this. Living in the city comes at a cost, duh, but the tech salaries more than make up for what they'll be paying in rent.
"I think Warren Buffett would call you stupid."
Jesus Christ man, that comment speaks volumes on your thought process. Do a bit more research on living here, rather than coming into a random comment section spewing some bullshit about something you clearly know nothing about.
@@wrango rent = zero equity. I mean if you are looking at 60-100k for rent a year... you could afford to buy.. that is why it is ridiculous. my points are beyond valid.
@@wrango I think what I meant about being picky.... at 6-9k per month... the fact that a curtain had to be used, was a turn off? lol... like you having to draw a curtain was the deciding factor? lol
@a.kaiser8965 It's not all that black and white haha but thank you for your comment 😉
@wrango you get it, neighbor!
Privacy in New York….. 😂😂😂😂
We had a fantastic apartment in one of the high towers before with plenty of privacy so I know it's possible if you really want it :-)
