Not sure if folks know, but buildings in NYC get graded on their energy efficiency. Similar to the way restaurants post their Health Dept. letter grades in the window, buildings do as well. This one has a D. That means the building is not doing such a good job. A lot of people may not care about this, but I think it's important info to know. Plus, it just looks worn out to me.
I believe most are so bad because they are remodels from old building original flats. They try to make more flats in a building that more then likely had half that. Then they jack up the price due to area and some amenities.
Cheap finishes and poor workmanship are evident. @ 5:35, The laminate countertop wasn't trimmed off properly. @ 5:40 and @ 6:40 What the heck is going on with that untrimmed tile backsplash behind the stove and bathroom sink? For the price they are asking, they should have hired a professional to work on this place.
This apartment is cheaply done and the low loft heights will guarantee someone is going to knock their head. The apt. is located at the 59th street bridge area which means horrible exhaust and 24hr. traffic noise. Whoever owned this must have done it years ago because it's outdated and dreary. Pass on this one.
This is what half a million get you in Manhattan? 🤣🤣 4:09 I like how she says the exact asking price but doesn't say the exact amount of what the common charges are making it seem like a bargain because it under $1200 a month. 5:03 Yes, massive air conditioner but were going to ignore the rust spot on the bottom corner which indicates thats where it may occasionally drip water from instead of outside in the rear. 5:33 They went with cheap Formica Laminate counter tops but didnt bother to get the end cap kit to seal the particle board to help prevent it from absorbing moisture and making it swell. 5:38 Peal and stick? Someone decided it would be a good idea to put Peal and Stick behind a slide in Range? All the heat from the oven will vent from those slits close to the back splash and its bye bye peal and stick adhesive. They didnt even attempt to cut it to make it square either. 5:52 In all my years of installing kitchen cabinets, i can always laugh when they do not put the correct 24" deep cabinet above the fridge but I have never seen someone put the pulls at the top of that cabinets door. Never. 6:03 Unrated and overlooked feature. Theres a vent in the kitchen to suck out cooking smells. 6:40 Again, Peal and stick. Enough moisture and heat will make the edges rise then it will look tacky. 8:12 Its to mount a TV. String lights can be good but to make it look professional they will spend more of 45 degree channel diffusers than the lights themselves.
These are valid critiques - the place is expensive. A person needs an annual income of around $100K to live here. It seems like you have a professional background in installations. I have a professional background in teaching. My critique is that you spelled “peel” incorrectly. “Peal” is the word we use to mean a “bell ring.” “Peel” is what we do with a banana, and also with peel and stick tile. So now you know!
You know more than Cash he is a shame less huckster for absurdly priced apts and is uncritical of the bad design features lie all the things u note plus the very low ceilings.
@@marymacgregor6952 I use to remodel apartments for landlords for them to rent out and can easily see where the problems will be 1 year later, many times I just kept quiet because I know it will be more money in my pocket when I get the call to fix it. It does not make sense to pay half a million to get peel and stick tiles that will eventually fail, an AC that clearly have rust from dripping and Formica countertops that were not properly completed to prevent them from absorbing water which leads to wood rot.
Bridge traffic all day means you can't open windows without breathing car exhaust. Apt only faces north so no direct sunlight. Ground floor requires steel bars which makes it feel like jail. Maintenance charges kind of high for a ground floor studio apt. Dimensions too quirky for most people. Midtown east is a boring neighbrhd but pretty safe.
Seeing all these comments about how $517,000 is not a bad price for this toothpaste tube astounds me. However, the entertainment one receives watching CASH describe it is definitely worth it...☺️
I watch these because he is hilarious, way cooler than he even knows, but also because they make me appreciate my house. I would've lived like that when young, but not after. Would kill my soul.
Depends if this is a condo or coop. Coop you will be mad to pay this. And this is NY, $3k rent is pretty much the median rent here. You want cheaper you go into suburbs but you sacrifice convenience and time to get to work and back home.
Not a deal. Manhattan real estate prices are unsustainable given the city's current salary averages. The average salary in Manhattan is 70K; the 75th percentile is 83K...which makes even this small, old studio out of reach for over 80% of residents. Real estate...residential & commercial is a house of cards that will have to fall eventually.
💙 Cash, you are now my favorite RUclipsr..even though I will never have a reason to move to New York..having you to show me New York is 100% win win for me..You’re such a great entertainer, I wouldn’t want to see the city with anyone else..Much love 💕 NOLA🎭🎷🎭 Gee
let me see your your hand if you're also binge watching his videos even though you're halfway across the world with no plans to move to New york (or even the States). EDIT: Hi, y'all!
@O M My personal nightmare. But what do I know, living at my rural place in germany, where squarefeet are cheap as chewing gum. 😄 Would love to live in a place like NYC though. But not if I had to live in a storage room.
I'm from Greece and i'm renting a newly constructed (built in 2019) 50 sqm (538sqft) apartment fully furnished with a balcony and with all the bills icluded ( internet, electricity, water) and my rent total is 575 euros (it's the exact same price in dollars) it's so funny and rediculous to see the rent prices in New York for such badly contructed apartments
It's more interesting than the usual studio, though it's only for short people. The kitchen is spacious, though I wonder about the unfinished look to the stove backsplash and the outlet over the sink. Someone below mentioned that the peel-and-stick tile won't tolerate the heat from the stove. The a/c may be "massive", but it looks old. The ladder/steps would be tricky in the middle of the night, so the occupant needs to be young as well as short. With a $2,500/month mortgage and $1,200/month in taxes and fees it's not cheap.
I always liked the area, but I couldn't live with bars on the windows, but , that's me. Plus navigating those stairs in the middle of the night, wouldn't be anything I'd want to do, but hey, a lot of people love this unit, so who am I to say. The finishes could be better also.
Common charges and taxes....holy cow! Less than $1200 so that means over $1100 added onto your mortgage...who can afford ANYTHING anymore? And those stairs...come on. Crazy cramped living room, no dining room. More of the jail style bars on the window. Claustrophobic kitchen. You can't even fully stand up in the loft! LOL God this is just awful.
@@SweetDreamz0223 I am very "calm" and it doesn't matter if I am "being made to live there or not" these prices are stupid expensive. I get to express my opinion on anything I want any way I want to. Sorry kid.
Not a bad price for a Manhattan apartment...but 1st floor? Nope. Hate that people walking by could just rap on your window and always hate the prison bars needed on lower floor apartments for safety.
The only time I like being on the first floor is in the back of a building with a private yard and some space between the apartment and the street (that’s how my place is right now)
If you research this unit it was under contract back in February 2022 but the deal fell thru. When that happened they raised the price another couple of thousand dollars. Also there is a current assessment of almost $100 added to the monthly common & tax charges for the next 3 years. The last time this was sold was prior to 2000 & has been rented out since about 2004. It does need updating, especially in the kitchen area. If the owner didn't want to go for granite counters at least they should have installed quartz
I don't need granite countertops to sling pots and pans. Some people can't boil water in a kitchen without granite countertops. I can. My only requirement is they wipe clean easily.
I like the building. The thing is if you wake up late at night and have to use the bathroom you have to walk down those stairs. Kind of treacherous. But overall it's very nice. Nice neighborhood too. See ya
$519K for a studio send a little high. Yes it has a 24 hour doorman & a beautiful lobby but you don't live in the lobby. Yes it's a nice neighborhood with tons of shopping & restaurants (albeit overpriced). But omg $1200 a month common charges??? You can definitely do better
this lofty studio apartment is really nice and set up really well. real estate agents and owners from Sydney, Australia take note we could use some of these in other areas of Sydney other than unilodge
Of course it isn’t perfect, but I like this design. Different but functional and provides space in the area you really need it. Washer/dryer hurts thought
Surprisingly well planned appartment. There are so many sacrifices that tiny apartments usually require. Tiny kitchen. No real storage. Boxy, closed in feel. This one has a very nice kitchen, open airy feel, good use of "dead space" and lots of storage. I guess $519,000 for NY is good. But here in Texas you could get a 5bed house with lots of outdoor space for that amount and even have money left over.
Texas! I live between Houston & Beaumont. 50 acres, 3500sq brick home built in 2015 on the bay, MASSIVE barn, fenced pastures, stocked fishing pond & chicken coop - we paid $450,000 (in 2015). I am a stay at home and my husband works. Our note is only $2300 a month!
I loved New York… as a retail buyer , I had the best of both worlds . Monthly trips to New York with the Theaters.. museums…shopping…shoe shopping galore…restaurants ….parks and, best of all, no unreasonable, overpriced rents…… just comfortable stays in hotels paid for by my employer.
You did a good video to service the sale of the apartment. It may be a decent apartment consideration the price but there are some obvious problems to consider. I think the floorspace is just too small and the ceiling height in the loft and below the loft is a problem if you are a tall person. The living/dining does not look 11x17, maybe they are including the kitchen in that measurement. The neighborhood is noisy because of the 59th Street Bridge traffic. The dressing closet is limited because it is also a hallway to the bathroom.
517k for this while in Texas, you could get a recently built modern house with a huge plot of land for roughly that price or cheaper. Nah I’ll pass. Lol.
@@lisab.1595 Good thing most modern homes have built in ac. Also, subjectively speaking, it’s not as bad as ppl made it out to be. If you can survive the heat in NY at its worst especially, I’m sure you’ll be fine in TX.
@@kittykatz3518 ?? Totally left field there. Where did this come from? Not saying TX is perfect but if we are to jump to a whole different topic at random both men and women have it hard regardless of state. Just saying. I don’t know what you mean about the whole chattel stuff but if you want to elaborate, by all means.
its adorable... its nearly perfection really... maybe kitchen i would replace the dishwasher with the stove and remove the other side for even more space,, the climbing of the steps and low ceiling might be an issue.. but i love the quirkiness of the loft and the nook.. i would definetly like this place! and its cheaper rent than some turds we have seen that cost more !
Thank you for sharing your cool crazy tour...You made me laugh about the 7-11 Store and the items sold there!!! Lol!! The restaurant here in mid-town are very nice it seems.. At least you do not have to go too far inorder to enjoy a nice meal...The apartment looks nice and by me being 6'2" I would have to be careful going up stairs to the loft area for bed...Again, thank you for your tour here...
"The trains aren't too bad" OMG, Cash, those train times are AMAZING for someone who comes from a place where even peak hour trains only come every 15-20mins.......
Very good use of space and unique layout. But still too much for this amount of room. Nice neighborhood and full time doorman, but way too small for the price tag. Need an outdoor area. 😁
I actually really liked this one . I've watched a lot of your videos and seen worse apartments listed for more $$$ . I especially like it cuz you COULD have company visiting but be able to get away from them. And there was a lot of storage. If I purchased it, I'd definitely upgrade it a little though. (not that I'm looking to move or anything, just speculating) Very cool!!!
Texas! I live between Houston & Beaumont. 50 acres, 3500sq brick home built in 2015 on the bay, MASSIVE barn, fenced pastures, stocked fishing pond & chicken coop - we paid $450,000 (in 2015). I am a stay at home and my husband works. Our note is only $2300 a month!
Cash, can you do a Q&A? That could be fun and pretty interesting to know some of the stuff you've seen that you don't show in your videos! Maybe a little creepy, gross, strange, silly...etc. Maybe take questions from your subscribers on IG stories? :) Love you Cash!
It's 2022. I think most people prefer in unit washer and dryer. I do not understand why condo buildings and luxury apartment buildings do not have free washers and dryers in their laundry room (if they are unable to support in unit washer/dryer). Having to pay for each load really cheapens the living experience. I would rather pay more in rent or have higher association fees than have to pay for laundry in my own building.
Add some steps to that storage cabinet in the bedroom and that could be your dog's own apartment. Did I hear her right? So even after half a million$$$ you still pay a house mortgage for common space? $200 ok but $1200 monthly? Um NO THANK YOU
Thanks Cash agree it is a well thought out floor plan for using space but if you add up the 1200 $ a month with payments on a 500,000 morgage that is a very steep monthly payment for a tiny space to call home.
man this is what happens when we don't have walkable cities, its either pay out ass for a space like this or live out in suburbia/innawoods which not everyone wants to do. By design (through lobbying by corporate landlords and nimbys) we have shitty zoning; the lack of decent public transit also contributes to this problem. At least we get cash's videos.
I only wish I could live there in midtown. I live on Harlem West and its nice but I hate waiting for packed express just to get to 36th. If I lived there I could walk to work. Sucks being broke
A half million-dollar apartment where you have to stoop in every area in the upstairs bedroom loft is ridiculously overpriced. What if I have bad knees and/or lower back pain, which most Americans suffer from or will one day this apartment only accommodate a very small, no pun intended, portion of Americans.
I’m comfortable in a tiny apartment. If you’re tall, you’d be miserable. A good fit for a bachelor or a young couple starting out but it ain’t a family home. No room to grow there.
Love how as he says it's a quiet street the road noise makes him almost inaudible. Over half a mil to listen to street noise and have bars on your windows. NYC is a joke.
Kind of gives me a mouse maze vibe! Not gonna lie! And the nook is where you would find your prize at the end of the maze! Hopefully one of those shops is a chiropractor. You will need it trying to stand up unless you were a short person. Thanks Cash for another fun walk through. How anyone can live in New York is beyond my comprehension! Bless all of you that live there! I beleive frugal originated there, it would have had to!!!!
$517,000 is a 7 bedroom 3.5 bathroom house with an acer or 2 of land, a pool, a 2 car garage, and a 2 car detached garage in TX. WHY THE ACTUAL...... IS NY SO EXSPENSIVE? 😱😱
8ft bathroom ceiling passing through a 6ft closet? Why not make 7ft high bathroom, enter through the hallway, then you get another ft in the loft and you can make the closet ceiling lower since you're not walking through it. You may be able to get a built in desk on the landing. 🤔
For a cozy spot in an excellent neighborhood in Manhattan, really not that bad. Definitely beats renting a place if you can get a mortgage. Only downside is that it is on the first floor.
This loft is such a good of space. Having the large closet near the bathroom makes sense. The storage area upstairs would be great for off season clothes, suitcases, and linens.
This is a great use of space ❤ Because it is New York it is a good buy 🌟 The buyer has some things to do due to the fact they just threw some things in there cheaply and other things that need to be done correctly 🤔
Not sure if folks know, but buildings in NYC get graded on their energy efficiency. Similar to the way restaurants post their Health Dept. letter grades in the window, buildings do as well. This one has a D. That means the building is not doing such a good job. A lot of people may not care about this, but I think it's important info to know. Plus, it just looks worn out to me.
Thank you for looking. this up. I was about to do the same. And I agree- a refresh is needed for the apartment.
This is a good sized duplex for a single dwarf. (no kids)
Most nyc apartments that are on the lower end look worn out.
It's amazing how there are so many badly designed small flats/houses commanding such ridiculous rental prices.
I believe most are so bad because they are remodels from old building original flats. They try to make more flats in a building that more then likely had half that. Then they jack up the price due to area and some amenities.
That's NYC
That's over priced over populated NYC for you smh.
Couldn't have said it better!
Cheap finishes and poor workmanship are evident. @ 5:35, The laminate countertop wasn't trimmed off properly. @ 5:40 and @ 6:40 What the heck is going on with that untrimmed tile backsplash behind the stove and bathroom sink? For the price they are asking, they should have hired a professional to work on this place.
it's a condo......owner does the fixes
And did you notice the ham fisted caulk job around the countertops? Thick white stripes.
It's an investment, to be rented out, the owner won't care about anything.
The unfinished tile backsplash isn't even real tile. It's peel & stick, that's why it has those edges. Not cool.
This apartment is cheaply done and the low loft heights will guarantee someone is going to knock their head. The apt. is located at the 59th street bridge area which means horrible exhaust and 24hr. traffic noise. Whoever owned this must have done it years ago because it's outdated and dreary. Pass on this one.

Condo fees plus taxes $1200 a month, eek. $468k (10% down) is $2,512 a month (30 yrs @ 5%) = $3,700 a month.
And that's assuming you get it for that lower price and that you have $46K laying around for a down payment.
Not a bargain for a studio, and the value of your investment will depend on the future of NYC real estate. What goes up can come down.

True. I mean, I live in germany. But here I got a nice big house with 27.000 squarefeet of sourrounding land for 200.000 dollars. 😆
And walk out your door and melt.
@@lisab.1595 Good thing most modern homes have built in ac. Also, subjectively speaking, it’s not as bad as ppl made it out to be. If you can survive the heat in NY at its worst especially, I’m sure you’ll be fine in TX.
Yes but women are treated like chattel there.
@@kittykatz3518 ?? Totally left field there. Where did this come from?
Not saying TX is perfect but if we are to jump to a whole different topic at random both men and women have it hard regardless of state. Just saying. I don’t know what you mean about the whole chattel stuff but if you want to elaborate, by all means.
I would still be worried about the stairs.
I’ve been in that building and I have seen the steep steps. Yes, the steps are an accident waiting to happen. I hated them.
I too hated the stairs - definitely can't run up and down them wearing socks or drunk 😬.
Watching with my daughter! My b day! We love patsys pizza and she thinks is you’re hilarious!
Looks like it was built in the Sims.
I totally agree!
What are 'the Sims?
Is that like a new borough?
I love how he asked if the nook could be rented cause that's exactly what I thought when he opened it up 😅
I feel like a lot of people thought this, which is why we have so many of these videos from New York.
great video, love seeing that you got a helmet, nice!!!! and keep up the good work, you rock!
Freeze frame at 0:01 - AWESOME SHOT! It's make a great album cover or horror movie poster.
Call it what it is, a galley kitchen!!! I love it that you are trying to upsell a shitty apartment!!!!!!!
I am really enjoying these videos, thank you.
6:18 what happened to the paint on the railing?
3:32 "Over-sudsing" ?? English might not be my 1st language but i'm pretty sure that's not a word 😆
I really like that one. The price is still ridiculous though.
TOO High ! 💀
actually CHEAP
@@maddscientist3170 it's a rip off!
This is Gonna B so Good CJ🔥🔥🔥👍….
its adorable... its nearly perfection really... maybe kitchen i would replace the dishwasher with the stove and remove the other side for even more space,, the climbing of the steps and low ceiling might be an issue.. but i love the quirkiness of the loft and the nook.. i would definetly like this place! and its cheaper rent than some turds we have seen that cost more !
The common charge on top of the mortgage makes this insanely expensive. I bet the doorman makes minimum wage so… why is it so expensive?
You think the doorman makes minimum wage? That’s a union job. You don’t have a clue.
@@marylivingstone9815 You’re right. I’m not familiar with doormen salaries. Do tell. How much do you make?
Thank you for sharing your cool crazy tour...You made me laugh about the 7-11 Store and the items sold there!!! Lol!! The restaurant here in mid-town are very nice it seems.. At least you do not have to go too far inorder to enjoy a nice meal...The apartment looks nice and by me being 6'2" I would have to be careful going up stairs to the loft area for bed...Again, thank you for your tour here...
One of the best planned & logical studios ever!
"The trains aren't too bad" OMG, Cash, those train times are AMAZING for someone who comes from a place where even peak hour trains only come every 15-20mins.......
Buses in my hometown are every hour after 6 PM and stop at 11... so YES these times are AMAZEBALLS 👍
I just can't get with a place that makes me plunk down money to buy it then makes me rent it while I live in it.
Yes exactly, what even is that? I live in the UK, so I have heard of service charges if you own a flat, but this is insane.
So cute ! Seems to offer everything needed for one person or a couple
I love watching your videos sometimes you are so funny
He is. Lol Love how he represents us New Yorker's...cool and down to earth.
The worst $1/2 million living space I've ever seen. Awful.
Very good use of space and unique layout. But still too much for this amount of room. Nice neighborhood and full time doorman, but way too small for the price tag. Need an outdoor area. 😁
I actually really liked this one . I've watched a lot of your videos and seen worse apartments listed for more $$$ . I especially like it cuz you COULD have company visiting but be able to get away from them. And there was a lot of storage. If I purchased it, I'd definitely upgrade it a little though. (not that I'm looking to move or anything, just speculating) Very cool!!!
The color of the paint on the doors though .... why? Nauseating 😆Must've been discounted paint that no one wanted to buy, lol
Texas! I live between Houston & Beaumont. 50 acres, 3500sq brick home built in 2015 on the bay, MASSIVE barn, fenced pastures, stocked fishing pond & chicken coop - we paid $450,000 (in 2015). I am a stay at home and my husband works. Our note is only $2300 a month!
I love this unit! As much as I'd want to live on the west side, the more I've explored the east side just surprises me more and more!
Aaww! Another cute place! Thank you 😊
Cash, can you do a Q&A? That could be fun and pretty interesting to know some of the stuff you've seen that you don't show in your videos! Maybe a little creepy, gross, strange, silly...etc. Maybe take questions from your subscribers on IG stories? :) Love you Cash!
It's 2022. I think most people prefer in unit washer and dryer. I do not understand why condo buildings and luxury apartment buildings do not have free washers and dryers in their laundry room (if they are unable to support in unit washer/dryer). Having to pay for each load really cheapens the living experience. I would rather pay more in rent or have higher association fees than have to pay for laundry in my own building.
Add some steps to that storage cabinet in the bedroom and that could be your dog's own apartment. Did I hear her right? So even after half a million$$$ you still pay a house mortgage for common space? $200 ok but $1200 monthly? Um NO THANK YOU
Thanks Cash agree it is a well thought out floor plan for using space but if you add up the 1200 $ a month with payments on a 500,000 morgage that is a very steep monthly payment for a tiny space to call home.
517k for this… where I live, an apartment of this size and quality would go for about 40k MAX… omg
Wow this is really nice! The set up is so functional and it looks fun!
Not Bad for NY and the Area
.. love lofts
...narrowing stairs may be a problem tho ...it was cute ..
Seems like a good value, I like having a bathroom connected to the Primary.
man this is what happens when we don't have walkable cities, its either pay out ass for a space like this or live out in suburbia/innawoods which not everyone wants to do. By design (through lobbying by corporate landlords and nimbys) we have shitty zoning; the lack of decent public transit also contributes to this problem. At least we get cash's videos.
I only wish I could live there in midtown. I live on Harlem West and its nice but I hate waiting for packed express just to get to 36th. If I lived there I could walk to work. Sucks being broke
A half million-dollar apartment where you have to stoop in every area in the upstairs bedroom loft is ridiculously overpriced. What if I have bad knees and/or lower back pain, which most Americans suffer from or will one day this apartment only accommodate a very small, no pun intended, portion of Americans.
I’m comfortable in a tiny apartment. If you’re tall, you’d be miserable. A good fit for a bachelor or a young couple starting out but it ain’t a family home. No room to grow there.
Love how as he says it's a quiet street the road noise makes him almost inaudible. Over half a mil to listen to street noise and have bars on your windows. NYC is a joke.
Kind of gives me a mouse maze vibe! Not gonna lie! And the nook is where you would find your prize at the end of the maze! Hopefully one of those shops is a chiropractor. You will need it trying to stand up unless you were a short person. Thanks Cash for another fun walk through. How anyone can live in New York is beyond my comprehension! Bless all of you that live there! I beleive frugal originated there, it would have had to!!!!
The nook is the perfect cat condo!
Cool apartment. Enjoyed.
Does ANYONE have an issue with it being a HALF-MIL$ and you will pay $1200/mo in common charges! FOR WHAAAAAAT? 😂 😂 😂
I love when I know exactly where you are 👍🏾
You being showing some great apartments townhouse brownstone when I get my million I will be moving to New York City
$517,000 is a 7 bedroom 3.5 bathroom house with an acer or 2 of land, a pool, a 2 car garage, and a 2 car detached garage in TX. WHY THE ACTUAL...... IS NY SO EXSPENSIVE? 😱😱
Niiiice! I know someone who has a similar place in Portland for around the same price. I'd rather live in midtown Manhattan myself.
So well designed:)
8ft bathroom ceiling passing through a 6ft closet? Why not make 7ft high bathroom, enter through the hallway, then you get another ft in the loft and you can make the closet ceiling lower since you're not walking through it. You may be able to get a built in desk on the landing. 🤔
There’s no place like Ohm…
…sorry. I’ll show myself out 😐
I love this place!
I love this apartment
When Jordan Said: “I Have Seen Tighter Openings Than This”, He Was Also Referring To When He Was Single.
That’s Cash Jordan.
For a cozy spot in an excellent neighborhood in Manhattan, really not that bad. Definitely beats renting a place if you can get a mortgage. Only downside is that it is on the first floor.
What was that white object in the sky at high noon 2:40? It was moving and then gone Was that identified or not?
The crawl space by the bed would be perfect for a pet room.
Cool place!
Cash You are so entertaining 🙌😊💪
I would make the loft the living room. Those stairs at night. No thank you.
This loft is such a good of space. Having the large closet near the bathroom makes sense. The storage area upstairs would be great for off season clothes, suitcases, and linens.
And Christmas stuff,,,
Yikes , did I hear 1200 a month for the pleasure of living in your own property in said building? Jeepers.
Who installed those backsplashes and didn’t bother to cut off the excess tile on the sides?? Haha
I would redo the whole loft. Including the rusted AC and the steep staircase.
The kitchen and bathroom desperately needs a redo.
If you have guests over you can spy on them in the living room? 😂 ok, Cash. Those kind of machines are the ones in my laundry room. They're fantastic.
This is a great use of space ❤ Because it is New York it is a good buy 🌟 The buyer has some things to do due to the fact they just threw some things in there cheaply and other things that need to be done correctly 🤔
This place is awesome. I could totally live there.
