    Rego Park is almost exactly the same distance to midtown as it is from Bushwick to midtown. Quieter and less nightlife, but safer and it's not a gentrified neighborhood.

      I totally get that, I could only speak to my experience! I'm sure there is a more permanent living situation out there so you don't have to move all the time. Good luck in your move, and thanks for watching! x

    How did you get robbed? They broke in your room or robbed in person? Because I have an expensive ass laptop too and I’m wondering would it be safer to leave it home everyday or carry it with me everywhere I go with the potential of getting mugged in person

    • @ChelseaCallahan
      @ChelseaCallahan  3 года назад

      Someone broke in my apartment from the inside! Definitely better to leave your laptop at home in my opinion, but maybe hide in a drawer or invest in a safe or something 🙂

      @@ChelseaCallahan for sure thank you! And I hope all is well with you now 🙏 I was also listening to you talk about how you rented sublets to avoid all the requirements/docs that are required for regular spaces but the sublets I'm seeing on Craiglist are all asking for the same thing (credit, broker fee, first and last month etc) ? Do you know of any good places I should look, cause this aint it 😩

      @ChelseaCallahan  3 года назад +1

      @@donetho4250 Yes there are a lot of good facebook groups that I use!! Our friend Craigslist can be a hot mess sometimes haha. All the sublets I've done require some sort of deposit but it's always refundable. Check out 7:33 in this video I list out the groups and talk about my tips for securing one 🙂I hope this helps!! good luck! x

      What is meant by "40X the rent?" Does that mean if the apartment is $2000 you have to have $80K in savings? That does n't sound right!
