I think I found my new NYC Real Estate Channel! I love that you add in the subway and/or bus stops to let people know what they can expect. I was watching Cash Jordan but now all he talks about are the problems with NYC - you show what good about NYC! Thanks!
I really enjoy watching your channel because I can fantasize about living in NYC. You provide the important information (transportation and laundry) while also mentioning what's good about the place. If I were younger, I'd definitely have on my agenda to live in NY somehow!! I'm probably past the age where it would make sense to uproot, leave family and set-up in NY, but it's fun to imagine. Maybe in another lifetime! I'm wondering how many other people are watching this channel who have no intention of moving to NY any time soon. It's like flipping through a high fashion magazine knowing you won't be buying the clothes. haha
I find your videos are the best NYC real estate tours on RUclips as they are to the point, get all the facts and don't waffle on. My favourite is number two with the sun drenched terrace but I also love the cheapest/Soho with the tree outlook; I could happily live there! Thanks from Australia
I've just subscribed! Sounds and looks like a lovely series of videos about my favourite US city.....I am looking forward to some serious armchair travel....
I’m a new sub to your channel but just wanted to say your videos are great! I appreciate your rating system and the way you review the apartments, very informative. Also, I appreciate you defending NYC, it’s not a cesspool at all, every city has its problems but being the largest in the USA, and maybe the world brings unique challenges but overall, I love NYC. Maybe someday I’ll get back there!
You must live inland and/or have bought your house decades ago since the average house in the coastal areas is around $1,000,000 for less square footage and around $2500 -$3000 for a one bedroom rental, depending on the area. California has 4 of the top 10 most expensive cities in the country for housing.
Hi, I couldn't sleep and just found you. I appreciate your presentation as you seem to have a good understanding of the NYC market. I can't wait to see more and day dream. 😊
I like your rating system. It is based on fact and not opinion which is fair. I can't get over the expense of NYC living. Based on your previous video of what is needed to rent an apartment I don't see how the average income earners can afford to live in Manhattan unless they take on a bunch of roommates or live in tiny little boxes. I agree with you though, the city holds a fascination to me that could never be rivaled. I live in Alberta Canada and years ago I was able to live on my own in a 1 bd apartment for a couple of years. I was young and had no savings, just check to check but I still had no problems with affordability. I guess I never realized just how lucky I was. Nowadays rents have gone crazy here too but not as high as Manhattan. I find myself looking forward to your video's. I love your approach and down to earth nature. Thank you very much.
Sorry about that, I meant to add it in the corner while editing! I saw a request on one of my other videos and it just slipped my mind while working on this one
Interesting video thanks, I have to agree totally with your comment about some of the comments on here degrading New York City, proper, if you could afford it, which is probably a very high bar for most, I would take the city and live in a smaller place versus living in the suburbs also any day. Love living in a city and what it offers me as a human being compared to some very boring suburb where I basically feel lost and out of place.
The prices are so high. $4,000 a month for a bed in the lounge room 😂. That $7,000 australian $ a month. Who earns these disposable dollars? $2,000 a week to live in a light box close to many train stations.
This is Manhattan. More people can afford the other boroughs. $2,000 a week to live near every possible experience of art, music, food, books and lectures, parks, theater, --- people use their apartments as touchstones to experience the world around them, rather than as caves to spend as much time as possible.
My new real estate channel. Great Vid. I love the filming of the insides. Nice, quick, scan. The only thing I didn't care for was the big bold blackout of the outside by the headline of the address. It blocks the neighborhood view which is a pretty important element of why people choose to live where they do. But all in all, very well made videos for sure!
I haven't seen any of hers yet but when I was looking at my audience analytics it did mention her so I should check her out! And I'll be doing an apartment tour of my place sometime in October. I also toured one past client's decorated place in August and I'll be doing a video of a friend's apartment soon too!
@@hayley_bailiff I watch her. She lives in {edit to change to Queens. Not Brooklyn]. Not Manhattan. But she is focused on the real world experience of trying to be in NYC as a non-rich person who is just kind of blumping along trying to figure life out. It's very non-Instagrammy. But we do see a lot of her forays into Manhattan.
I enjoy your apartment tours. Regarding NYC… I visit the City about 4/5 times a year for concerts etc. One thing that annoys me more and more each year is all the scaffolding on the sidewalks. I wouldn’t mind if the building owners were doing repairs, but that’s rarely the case. They don’t have this problem in Chicago, or other cities with tall buildings.
Yes!! Why isn't anyone talking about the huge increase in scaffolding in NY?? What happened? It's ugly and really diminishes the feeling of being in the city. It's almost making it not as interesting to visit because if I want to walk under scaffolding ALL THE TIME I'm there, it starts to not be worth the $$.
What is the approximate cost of rental or condominium insurance for the type of units featured? Are storage rooms available within the building? How is trash/garbage maintained?
All of these buildings are rentals, and rental insurance tends to be under $200 per year. Depends on how much you want covered. Most walk up buildings don't have storage units available but some high rises do for an additional fee. And for trash, it all depends on the building. High rises tend to have a trash chute room on each floor where you put your stuff. Walk ups often have a trash room in the basement for you to put your trash. Some walk ups don't have trash rooms though and tenants are expected to bring their trash out on trash night, and there are multiple trash nights a week. I have 3 trash nights each week. There is no size limit in NYC, you can even put furniture on the curb and they will take it.
I lived in Manhattan (mostly West Village)from 1984 to 1999 and was working class the whole time. I needed a roommate but was able to swing it. I refused to visit friends in Brooklyn Heights because it was too far away. The wealthy have hoarded Manhattan for themselves. Money grubbing landlords are truly enemies of the people.
So,true I lived in the west village in the 90s and you could buy a 1 bedroom about 800 sf for $110k and rent for $1200 what the f….happened…and who pays these prices….not even a 6 figure salary can afford these rents😮😮😮😮
Your ratings are very fair in general, but I disagree on the 4BR getting 4 stars for layout, what with that windowless LR. I guess the upside is, your roommates will ALWAYS be in their BRs, out of each other’s way ! Owners could extend the LR thru the right front BR to its window, then carve out a small windowless BR from the left side of the LR area (from front door back to kitchen). Windowless roomie gets a break on rent !
I get where you are coming from, but in my experience no one ever wants to be the roomie without a window! It tends to be a deal breaker where they won't even tour the unit
Pretty much the further from downtown Manhattan you get the more affordable the city becomes! Brooklyn/Queens right along the East River are pretty pricey, but if you go a few subway stops in you can pay significantly less. Upper Manhattan also tends to have much more affordable units, at least more affordable by NYC standards.
Of course I love the last apartment, but I also really liked the first studio in Tribeca! All of these neighborhoods are incredible. What is your favorite neighborhood in Manhattan??
I really like a good studio too! I also like the kitchen being separate, just a personal preference. And my favorite neighborhood is tough! It depends on what I'm looking to go do. I just renewed my lease so I won't be moving anytime soon but I would love to move to the Soho area next. The only down side is the nearest park is Washington Square Park, which would only be close if you lived in the northern part of Soho. Not a bad walk, but not exactly around the corner.
@@hayley_bailiff Washington Square Park was great for a hot minute. But when they stopped prosecuting criminals and let people do whatever they want, now it's just a cesspool of braindead anti-Semites and potheads. Wokeness is a mental illness.
Most of us who call NYC a cesspool don't do it out of hate, we do it because we lament the condition the city has been allowed fall into by politicians and leaders.
I am one of the people who thinks NY is a cess pool. 😊Camera movement made me dizzy, lol...was too fast. Unreal what people will pay for such tiny spaces to live in, and have to be around so many people outside. Good video though showing different apartments.
Wow! The moment you realize that New Yorkers are settling for less, just to have a place to live. NOTHING about NY so called deals impress me, when I have lived in both California Las Vegas and Now Seattle and the amenities that come with an apartment- NY has to do without. Good Bye.
Unfortunately most management companies require a SSN and credit history. Their best bet would be to try and find an individual building owner who would be willing to help them out! Maybe they will have luck on a website called listings project where you have to be the owner or current tenant to post, and all posts are verified by their team. They update the list every Wednesday
Why are you even here if you don't understand the appeal of NY? Very weird. It'd be like me going to a real estate channel for Omaha and then pretending to be shocked at how vapid and sterile it all is.

What's good? Tiny apartments that cost a fortune?
Great presentation because you understand what is important to your audience and your comments are spot on..
your voice is so consistent and soothing and the info is great i loved this vid so much :’)
Thank you for showing some cute apartments. I always like the apartments to have in unit washer & dryers.😊
The last apartments is very nice!😊

I appreciate the kinds words and support! I'd be happy in just about any of them, but I always prefer private outdoor space whenever possible!
Hayley love your comments and your local facts
Aw thanks UB!
Beautiful apartments ..but so expensive for what they are!
I've just subscribed! Sounds and looks like a lovely series of videos about my favourite US city.....I am looking forward to some serious armchair travel....

Thanks for another great video! It was fun to see a apartment that was furnished. Looking forward to more future videos.

I appreciate your kind words!
Just INSANE prices for a studio and 1 bedroom both of these are TRIPLE $$ what we pay for our 3200 sq ft home in California 🌴

Love watching your videos. I really liked the layout of the 4bedroom 2 bathroom unit
Hi, I couldn't sleep and just found you. I appreciate your presentation as you seem to have a good understanding of the NYC market. I can't wait to see more and day dream. 😊
I liked the one with the L-shaped living/dining area, but I'm also a sucker for exposed brick, so the 4br was fun to tour.
I loved the third apartment you showed, the covered balcony sold me on that one !!! Great video.....

can you include the price for each apartment on the graphic where you tally up the stars? It would be helpful! I love your videos!

There are people who do have have enough income to cover rents like that.
Obviously it doesn't include people making less than 150 grand.
Very unsafe city. To pay $5000 for the apartment in the city where you wont feel safe. Thank you!

@@hayley_bailiff I see. I lived in a 4 BR in Chicago with 1 such BR, I guess NYers are more demanding. And wealthier.
Thanks!
There is only one unit that has a window in the bathroom and that is the only unit I like.
Hi Hayley! 🏙🗽
And the last two apartments are close to a super Trader Joe’s!
$11,000, but no view?! 😵💫
I was just as surprised as you, but it is one of the most expensive areas of the city!
I love NYC, I don’t think it’s a cesspool but some apartments there are verging on inhumane 😂
Cool channel just subbed
I liked the Hudson Square apartment. The only downside is the lack of view.
I'm assuming that the boroughs have lower price tags. I know that Brooklyn is still expensive.

Brooklyn/Queens right along the East River are pretty pricey, but if you go a few subway stops in you can pay significantly less.
