This tiny NYC Apartment goes for $350 a month! 

What’s the name of you coat

I agree 😁

The chemistry and vibe between you two is awesome. It made this enjoyable to watch. I hope you guys stay connected lol

@@MsMati24 I agree! They need to hang out sometimes.

You're fabulous!

90%

That's the part about living and working that people miss.

That apartment is very cute and she has a great personality

Everything is nice & laughs until a DAHMER shows up next door in that Ghetto/ Rundown Apartment Complex. 350$ in Manhattan 🤣, has to be Shady AF!

This is a competitive country due to it's capitalist nature.. I thought making about $100000 a year is pretty good. My better half says by NYC standard, we are low middle class, just above lower income. I says I'm going to need you to enter the work field.

问题是哪里去找$350 的在NYC

Then people could really do what they really love Vs just things that pay the bills.

Of course but this is the best city in the world, where everyone wants to be but it’s small, you can’t just put everyone who’s willing to pay an affordable price in it, excess demand causes the invisible hand to rise the prices

I know right 😂😂😂 even in New Jersey rent is high too now at days.

Just remember nothing is FREE in life- someone else is paying her true rent costs

Never!!!!!

@@kekepetti3462 never ever forever.

That place is rent controlled. That’s a $2k per month apartment for your regular person.

It is not small at all, just fairly narrow.

Agreed. 350 a month is basically 4200 a year, which is still lower than many Manhattan apartments’ rent each month.

In South Africa, her apartment would be the equivalent of $100

@@craigcanaantime to move 😂

yes it is!

Yep 4sure

I seeing alot of these rent controlled spaces get passed down generationally, between fam. This makes it even more exclusive.

He make it seems like she just found the apt. She's been there forever and once she dies or moves then that one apt will become 3 apts.

How could I give a jackass access to someone illegally

Yeah this probably is only a little under the square footage of my current apartment in western ma that I’m paying $1200 for 🥲

And interestingly enough she pulls out a book about a unicorn 🦄

@harout k No it’s a spammer

I find her exhausting

It's the landlord that lets her take over, Thank him/her

Some people benefit from family fortunes, some from taking advantage of the government/tax payers. She’s the latter. And I don’t blame her at all for doing it.

I agree with you and I believe that the secret to financial stability is having the right investment ideas to enable you earn more money, I don’t know who agrees with me but either way I recommend either real estate or bitcoin and stocks..

I keep wondering how people earn money in financial markets, i tried trading bitcoin on my own made a huge loss and now I'm scared of investing more.

@@bjoe631 That won't bother you if you trade with a professional like *Mr Gary Mason Brooks* my coach, you may have come across him on interviews relating to bitcoin and stocks. He trades, manage trading account and offer mentorship program for clients who wish to become professional investors.

@@BeverlyTalley You allow people to trade for you? that's interesting, I would love to learn, hope it’s safe?

Wow I can't believe you guys are discussing about Gary Mason Brooks , I once met him at a conference in California 2019, just before the pandemic. I can testify that he’s very good in trading..Highly recommended

She doesn't own that apartment, that's not generational wealth.

@@Softpaws15 No one owns anything really except our souls. Its the only thing that can't be taken away from us. 🙏 ✝️ We only hold temporary possession of it. Have a great day.

​@@sparkle3000 Generational wealth is something of value which is owned that can be passed down to heirs.

True, but living cities don't make enough, tourism is really how a city makes money. Sad but true, I always wanted to live in NYC, but it'll never happen because I can't afford nor ever will be able to.

Bingo ❤❤❤❤stop catering to the tourists and actually have affordable living for the citizens that work and contribute to society aka rent taxes market expenses. People deserve to be happy joyous and free ❤

Not wanting tourists definitely sounds a little bit racist.

Thx for 'unencumbered' 👍

@@reisshep By tourist attractions, I meant cities that eventually become tourist attractions because nobody actually lives there. In my City it's actually the banking industry and real estate investment companies that have hollowed it out. Tourists are the least of our problems.

I know right😏

I def sensed the chemistry!

He's like yhat eith many females he interviews. Check his video with Haley, the model. Vibes

As I mentioned in another comment reply, she said rent controlled. That's even stricter than rent stabilized. Depending on the succession rules, the apartment might go to market rates and she could be on the hook for past months' rent payments.

I was about to say rent stabilize still goes up and changes not that much but it still changes 😢

*rent contolled omg ppl calm down

@@alexiszollicoffer1257how much you pay ?

Rent control is wonderful for people who get it, but it screws over everyone else. The fundamental problem is that there is huge demand for apartments in NYC and not enough supply for everyone, so prices are bid up. Rent control discourages the creation of more housing units. It also creates inefficiencies that result in sub optimal housing allocation. For example, a single person living in an inherited 3 br apartment with 2 unused rooms. They can't leave because smaller apartments are more expensive than the rent controlled 3br, so now most of their place is sitting empty while families who could use the space struggle to find a place. The only solution is to encourage more housing construction to meet demand. That is how Tokyo solved their housing crisis. The regulations are very loose in Tokyo so developers are free to build housing units of all shapes and sizes to meet demand, and prices are stable despite the fact that Tokyo has had a steadily increasing population and lots of people want to live there. Meanwhile, in Stockholm Sweden, every apartment is rent controlled, which sounds great until you learn that the waitlist is 10 years long. That is not a solution. If supply is less than demand, then you will always have problems.

Agreed! Such a cool space

It’s so homeyyyyy like I would love to bring some wine and chill with her in her sanctuary ❤

Rent absolutely goes up in a rent controlled apt! It's like 3% on a yr lease,and 5% on a 2 yr lease! If she moves out, the rent can I increase to fair market value, and then just the same percentage increase when a new lease is signed..

@@P.Kenney I was in a city owned rent controlled apartment for over 20 years, just moving 3 years ago. My rent stayed the same amount for 20 years, not going up a penny. I had rent control not rent subsidy, which is completely different!!!

They can only raise her rent after her lease ends.

The phrase she used is rent-controlled which is stricter than rent-stabilized. I would be concerned about the landlord seeing this as it's possible that the succession from her aunt & uncle to her would cause the rent to go to market rates.

@@bikeny I agree the landlords are greedy and usually apt inheritance is only supposed to go to children, not nieces and nephews. I would not have gone online and aired this.

@@michblu legit seriously!! Honestly kinda dumb lol! I've always heard it was only children that could qualify for rent controlled housing! As far as passing on the same unit I mean. She may just regret doing this

Rent stabilized is different from rent controlled. Hers is rent controlled.

Rent controls increase the rents of the surrounding non-rent-controlled apartments - it's part of the problem, not the solution.

They had to have added her to the lease before they left cuz they don't allow another family member to just take over.

My uncle lived in the apartment my family lives in currently in the 80’s. Then my mom moved in with him, he eventually moved out and my aunts moved in with my mom then my mom started her family, my aunts eventually moved out, and the rent is now $1600 monthly. It’s a 1 bedroom and both the living room & bedroom are very spacious. You can even convert the living room into another bedroom if you wanted because it’s separated from the kitchen, bathroom, and all three closets via a hallway. The entrance of the apartment leads directly into the kitchen and from there you can walk down the hallway to the bathroom, living room, or bedroom. I wish the apartment was cheaper tho. The rent has definitely increased since my uncle first snatched it up in the 80s..it’s also in Jackson Heights in Queens so..still pretty expensive for the area 😕

Thanks lmao saved me time title so misleading but more black people need to do things like that

They aren't creating new rent controlled apartments. You would need a relative already living in a rent controlled apartment and the landlord would have to agree with your name being added to the lease.

@@FaithandNovaDUH. SHE said it was rent controlled specifically, NOT me. I didn’t just come up with the idea out of thin air. She didn’t elaborate on who the specific lease holder currently is, so you’re just speculating, but if you feel that I posted wrong information, you’re always more than welcome to watch the video your darn self instead of trying to make it seem like I don’t know what I’m talking about when I DID watch the 7 minute video 🥴

Exactly! So cool!

@@khalilahd. It is still quite a small place, and 350 is stupidly cheap lol, but its nice to know theres at least 1 person in NYC with a genuinely good apartment lol

Because of the high ceilings and layout, her apt is bigger than my studio and I pay more than twice this amount. She is TRULY blessed... ❤️

@@TapeWormOfficial its ironic, she basically inherited the house from her family :P though she doesnt "own" it lol, but she seems so sweet and kind so im very happy for her

@@gotenks5633 my studio is a co-op unit that I bought cash 16 years ago but I would have paid TWICE the cost for this place with that $350 as the monthly maintenance charge. I'm not mad that she has this place especially since I've seen these attractive rent controlled apts are usually passed down by the wealthy to their heirs.

I've never had rent control so i dont get how it passes to someone else. Could you explain that, pls?

There are about 16,400 rent controlled apartments in nyc. Succession rights work like this. If a family member lives the family member tenant two year prior to the death or permanent leaving of the apartment ( one year for senior citizens or disabled persons), that family member will then have the lease to the apartment.

@@snickersimsocute2438 thank you! I thought it was something like that. One more question, if you know. Compared to the number of apartments in NY, that seems a low number of rent controlled. Is it a set number or what?

I wish my mom had lived in an apartment to pass to me :(

Unfortunately nothing will change until you take personal ownership. How can you argue for rent control when its only resulted in higher rent??? Elect officials that will take care of the people, not themselves.

Can you explain what went control/stabilization is in layman’s terms and how it works? Who benefits?

@@loria287 simply put, landlords can raise the rent each year by only a small percentage(3% more of less).

I was going to guess LES for sure. Maybe alphabet city. Good east side vibes

@@loria287 In addition to the price increase limitations, it includes various rights that market rate ones don't.

@@TheArnolds326 it looked like Allen Street from the opening shot

Lovely 🎉

of course she is upbeat! she is living in the middle of NYC for $350/mo. who wudnt' be upbeat with that..... that apartment is a $2k apartment. she one the jackpot having relatives gift that to her

Is it cool ? Really ? It seems like its only cool when you're the one benefitting from nepotism. When you're locked out of affordable housingi because none of it is ever in circulation ( because those rentals are being passed from one generation to the next ) its not so cool.

@@ae2948 I was thinking the same thing.

​@@ae2948you do know what rent stabilization is right? and that families everywhere pass down homes they have bought or have lived in for many years (if it was a rent etc), cant tell if you genuinely think this is nepotism which literally pertains to occupations and jobs, not housing. this is an important thing for families who have lived in nyc their whole lives as younger generations struggle to be able to afford to live here on their own.

It sure is cool when you are one of the lucky ones. It sure is not when you are not one of the lucky few who get passed a rent control apartment.

@@JospehTube yes well not everyone’s family as in NYC at a time when they could get one of those apartments. Why does this bother you?

Agreed, she indeed is. And they won’t because they can’t.

Same. This was such a cool space

There’s very few things that is she does it would trigger an eviction notice…renting out her rent stabilized apartment and making money from even a roommate is a definite NO. Also a RS apartment has to be your permanent residence. You can’t live 8 months of the year some place else. You’ll be evicted.

I was thinking that too, I probably wouldn’t let him tour the place only because I’d be concerned about that.

@@vanessazannis5523 You're allowed to have roommates, but they can only pay up to their exact share of the actual rent. So up to $175 if she gets one.

probably because it's either a fake price, or she does extra favors for that kind of price.

@@yikes710 No, It's not fake and she doesn't do any favours your creepy hater. It's rent controlled idiot. Her uncle/aunt lived there for decades and they passed it to her

She inherited the rent controlled lease probably

Facts this ain’t a tiny space

@@yikes710 its rent controlled. do your research

They are eye flirting a ton. It's cute

I caught that too! His whole vibe was sooooo different in this one.

they are marred now.

Shes beautiful but the neighbors know her voice through the walls. Its one thing to be performative in front of a camera. Who really knows...shes probably really nice but we only have this. Great first impression!

h1 you from usa?

Usually, if you can show you lived in the apt a certain amt of time, the law aows you to move in and take over a lease. But you have to actually live in the apt, which she might have done.

❤️

I agree, but doesn't everyone deserve the same?

They didn’t say everyone doesn’t deserve it. @@vaskylark

Same!

Do you actually live in nyc and work your ass off or just sit there and think about the struggle?

Same here, I pay way more even with the rent split between 3 ppl here in Texas. Texas is gonna be like New York and California in terms of cost of living pretty soon too, it’s crazy

I’m guessing it depends on city for Texas im sure the country has some low cost living but maybe at the cost of convince

@sayiddah bey....lol permission to add "how in the ham sandwich" to situations in my daily life...literally lol
