    Hi my name is Caira Button and I am a 26 year old who makes videos about tips, tricks, and organization for small space living. I love the minimalist, feminine, clean vibe. I have kept the decor pretty neutral adding a bit of mid century modern & LOTS of plants. I hope my advice is able to help you in your journey!

    I’m a little jealous! I’ve spent my quarantine in a 325sqft studio on the north side of Chicago, and those apartments looked beautiful!

    Hi Caira, you reminded me of my apartment hunting for .. 3 years. And the last apt we found is the one we decided to buy immediately because of the location, the view, the garden...the final price is good compared to the recent market. And that was our BEST financial decision last year. So, I guess you'd go for the 6th or 7th one. The view, the windows, the light.. all seems amazing compared to the price. :)

  • @Gabrielle499
    @Gabrielle499 4 года назад +4

    • @CairaButton
      @CairaButton  4 года назад

      Girl SAME!! I must have looked at 50 virtual tours but it is not the same as going in person.
      Take your time and research the area. And figure out what in apartment is most important to you. For me that is windows for my plants, but for someone else they couldn’t care less about light and they just want more sq ft.
