- This vlog is really fun, we toured several apartments an these were the ones we did not select. So many good options, so hard to choose, but a choice had to be made. I hope you enjoy this video as much as I did making it. My OG subscribers know this is a full circle moment. From online apartment tours to the real thing.
Comment below which was your favorite property!

Apartment searching can be tiring but take your time and keep looking don't rush family, joburg is big and has something for everyone..
Definitely is big and we did find something.
Hey Tayllor, big thanks for sharing your house hunting adventure. It was a real struggle, but I'm stoked you guys eventually snagged your preferred home.
Personally, I'm all about spacious yards, big bedrooms, a comfy living room, and a killer kitchen when I'm on the house hunt. The places you checked out were kind of a letdown with all those cramped spaces.
And don't even get me started on opening a bank account in South Africa, not a walk in the park for expats. 😂😂 I caught the Jones family vlog recently, and they were stressing about the whole process, but they've got it sorted now.
Anyway, awesome vlog as always. Can't wait for the next one! 😊😉
Yeah that’s why we didn’t choose any of those places. We definitely need space BUT you should always check out different kinds of properties. And a lot of people are asking for a house tour but for security purposes I won’t show where we are living in a tour.
Def will record in the house but I’ll do a tour once we move. Our place has a lot of space and really everything we could as for .
Thanks for watching as always !
I’m a South African living in China and opening a bank account here was not a walk in a park. It was a four process and I still had to come back the next day. But once you get it sorted, the stress is over… so is everything else.
Quick question, have the locals given you South African names yet? 😅
@@mphomakhale you take it for granted who was but is where you are from to do simple everyday life stuff lol. And nope not yett
Watching these videos make me miss home so much💔 the way I’m so ready to leave America and come home 💔
Come back 🫶🏾
Loved all the places but the one you selected sounds like the best fit! So happy for y’all. I’m still getting my things together but I’ll be joining you all soon
Yes they are were cute in their own way, but all were way too small. Luckily we found something in December because the choices were skimp lol
Excited for you !
Girl, who are you telling! I'm trying to find something in CT right now for marchish but nothing.. im brining a pet and available rentals go from 2000 to 90.. I have faith though.@@TayllorChanise
@@jaydahteaunna absolutely because who says you can’t find the perfect place!
Hi!!! My brother inlaw wears a size 13 and he buys all his sneakers online. And then there's Piccadilly, all major brands have a store there. He should be able to find his size. ✨ Compliments of this season to you and yours. ✨🥂
Thank you! I’ll let him know
Adidas & Nike Factory shops im Woodmead do have size 13 sneakers.
I bought mine there.
Even though I wear size 12.
Thank you !
South Africa is quite developed
It’s much more developed than the U.S. in several ways
Haibo I can't believe this, I really need to start exploring other contents 😮
🤦🏽♀️🤣🙈 Please don’t be posting such comments in 2024!
I'm so glad Americans see the actual South Africa and are moving away from this narrative that Africa is just a jungle and has animals everywhere. Glad more of you are open to exploring more than what the media feeds.
Hi Taylor, congratulations on ur new crib. I love ur channel, u guys are so dope ❤
Aww thank you!!
I think a townhouse would have been a better choice. Same price as apartments just that you’d have more space in a townhouse than apartment. Check townhouses in Bryanston and Northriding.
I never showed where we chose. These were places we did not choose. And a few of these are townhomes. Townhomes don’t necessarily offer more space. Some do and some are small as well. Also I don’t like the northriding neighborhoods aesthetically, they are pretty established just not the vibe for us . Thanks for watching !
Mugg and Bean is great! Have you had the muffins??
Listen the muffins have changed my life. The chocolate and double chocolate ones are my fave. Have you had the cookies ? I like those too
Mam your song selection is great put us on.
I get them off UA-cam under non copyright music
Hello. Thank you for the content. Glad you and your family found a place.
I’ll have to try Mug&Bean when I get there next month. Foods looks great.
I really love it lol when I can’t sit and eat I just go to the On the Go one. The breakfast here in SA is one of my faves
Thank you!
Glad you and your family got a department that you love, wishing you and family all the best for the year
Thank you so much
looks fun love watching your journey
Thank you! The journey has been fun!
Hey I am glad you found the apartment you and your family wanted to stay in pity pity we didn't get some kind of a house tour hopefully it feels like a warm home 🏠❤
I won’t tour our place until we move for security purposes
Best take your time,do not rush
We weren’t in the position to take a lot of time because we have small children and to actually do a lot in this country you must have an address
@TayllorChanise Okay that also make sense.
There are alot of beautiful homes that are hidden gems
So many but we are just renting so we will have plenty of time to search for the place we want to buy. I’m trying to see all the nooks and hidden gems here!
I love the sign 'BE KIND'
I’ve seen a few of them throughout the city
Nice Music nice apartments
Thank you !
Prices and enthusiasm would have been super cool.
That’s my enthusiastic voice
Always include prices in both dollars and rands so that people can know how much the properties costs...it will be so much easier for others who would wanna come to S.A
That wasn’t my intention to include the prices
Darn It Crisp Quality The Visual 🎉❤️ Your Camera Gear Please? OR Gear Is It?
Or The Visual Device?
I’m using my iPhone 14 pro max & DJI pocket 2 ! Thank you (:
Randburg (Northriding, Olivedale, Ferndale, Boskruin, Bromhof, Sharonlea, Sonneglans, Robindale, Malanshof etc) has very good value for money (R10000 - R15000pm for a spacious space), only issue is finding a modern one with nice finishings. Glad you found a place though. Hope you didn't pay a premium price
I think the issue for me is things are ultra modern which goes against my taste. Marble like floors are cute but slippery when wet, ultra modern seems so cold and uninhabitable. I like something in the middle. And we luckily stayed within our budget (:
Bromhof/malanshof really has that homey vibe for real💯 speaking from experience living there. maybe y’all should explore that in future next time. but happy for y’all still!🎉
I’m gonna go check that area out! Thanks for the suggestion !
Congrats to you and your family.
Thank you!
Have you tried clusters,townhouses in Bryanston, Parkview,Parkhurst, Hyde Park and Hurlingham?
We are have a place but we did look in Bryanston
Sorry missed that
Did you use a specific realtor for your apartment tours? Which website was most useful in finding your apartment? Thank you for sharing .
No specific realtors but I used Property24 and Private property to find available residences . My favorite is Property24 and have WhatsApp downloaded to communicate with the realtors
Hey girly, can you drop the name of the apartment complex name of the one with the super big wrap around patio....thanks
I’m not sure of the name since I viewed it in December but it’s in Bryanston near a Virgin Active
💯💯💯
Check out Munyaka
I need to
Why why aren't you telling the prices 😢
Because I don’t remember them. They are anywhere between 15k - 20k I believe.
Hey Tayllor, did you find yourself an apartment. I see you looking into my area which is fourways northriding area.
He we found a really nice townhome. We love the Fourways and Douglasdale area.
@@TayllorChanisethat’s lovely area!
Hi FAM
What about the house❤❤❤❤
What house? Our place we aren’t going to show for security reasons. But when we move I’ll do a tour 🤍
@@TayllorChanisethat's smart
@@bluecouchpodcast24 yeah have to have some kind of line where privacy starts lol
US SOUTHAFRICAN WITH KIDS I WILL NEVER GO FOR APARTMENT WRONG MOVE
What’re you talking about yall didn’t see my place lol. And you won’t see it until we move
Why don't you guys get a house
You could just get a house/property
Because we don’t want a house
