U get basically a cleaning supply closet for $1500 a month in nyc.
That's so crazy. I don't think I could ever live in an expensive city like that
amen
Layne Fable hiii layne!!
Same in Boston
& that’s IF you’re lucky enough to find that..most likely the South Bronx
Born and Raise in LA.
Tip #1 never find a house online. Find one that has a For Rent sign in the front lawn. You're welcome...
Same and Yassss. That’s the best way. You don’t have to deal with realtors as much and can even find a place that the owner directly is renting out and negotiate deposits etc.
usually rent sign means its listed on westside rental. same
@@leila4268 trust...no owner I know is listing their houses on websites.
I've found all of mine on Craigslist or Zillow. If you get there first and have good credit and references it's a breeze to rent.
I live in LA (valley) ... Drive around the neighborhood where you want to live and look for rental signs.
Idk why this was in my recommended but suddenly I’m in the comments looking for a roommate for apartment #2 🤷♂️
nickagrinzone I‘ll come to L.A. January 2021 🙋🏻♀️
I'm trying to find a roommate to move there ASAP. If interested we could meetup
I wasn’t planning on having a roommate when I move out there, but I’d definitely do it for some of the apartments I’ve seen haha
looool 😂😂😂
Same! We're moving in a month!
Wow... I live in Ga, and 1500 month will get you a brand new 3br/3ba that's about 2500 square feet. Think I'll stay in the south....
Amen...I live near Athens and have a 4br/3.5ba home in a great neighborhood...mortgage is $1400/ mo...we'll both stay here :)
same girl! Same!
Yeah seriously Georgia is so much cheeper you get a huge home even with land
Datgirl_EB lol same I live in Ms and this is kinda the same case as long as you are not looking in Clinton, Madison, or Flowood
But the pay out their is different
#2. Beautiful. Under budget. And for me personally, I don’t like to be in the heart of the city. I prefer space and privacy.
It will take you an hour and a half to commute to and from LA. That's wayyy far out there.
It's under budget, but Van Nuys is certainly not LA.
That's a ghetto neighborhood, to be honest. And unless you work in Burbank or somewhere nearby or from home, the commute would be horrendous. The place looks great inside but the location totally ruins it lol
Okay, not obviously realtor lady.
I used to live in Glendora and on traffic days it took 2 hours to get to dtla for work which should normally take 40 mins.
1500/month is crazy
I earn 1200.
I feel so poor i wanna die
spino no LA is just outrageously expensive. You are doing great 👍🏻
@@gracebosley9575 $300 a week is not great.
1200 bi weekly or monthly? Do you live in LA?
Yikes
@@ryans7146 monthly, obviously.
1200/Week is a fucking dream.
I live in Italy
Come to Philly and you can *buy* a house for one month's rent in LA.
Is that what you do?
:)
My life is more important than 1 months rent 😂
fuck that who the hell can afford the rent there
@@angelpaige9311 Lol I am from Philly, I live in South Philadelphia; I have to pay about 1800 for a 2 bedroom apartment. Maybe if you go to West Philly you can get a whole house for a few thousands :p
I would rather live in the valley than the city... lol. Toooo much traffic.
depends on where you work, unless you work from home most work is in the city.
There's plenty of traffic in the Valley. 405/101 intersection. Worst in the area. Plus the Valley is 15 degrees hotter in summer.
Dont even get started on the temperature, although the traffic is easy to deal with if you know where to go
The smog is worse there compared to Santa Monica and Bel Aire, not that there is any area in the LA basin that is smog free.
The heat is solvable in summer. Do stuff before 10. Stay inside and set temp to 65, put solar on cost, take an evening swim, then go out late evenings and night it cools down at night.
It definitely threw me off when I heard "but overall the apt wasn't bad..." @4:50 and then heard it replayed right after lol but I'd pick #2, I just love how bright it was and it was less than the budget
kendahl me too!!
lol heard that too
@@claystudios3830 Okay good it wasn't just me lol
I can’t help but think of LA as that mulholland drive movie, especially with that replayed line. Lol. Lived in the valley last year. Didnt like the area but I like your weather there in LA than New York.
Omg yesss
I now live in LA, I’m from NJ/NY and I’m soooooooooo tired of everyone hating on the valley. It’s amazing here and there’s so many hot spots and adorable neighborhoods. AND ITS NOT FAR FROM EVERYTHING. The west side is not all it’s cracked up to be.
@Hugh H exactly! The westside has horrid traffic so why would you want to live there?
You either from jersey or nyc. You from jersey cause you said N.Y. NJ lol
Erik Thomas not really, it’s actually bursting with culture. I agree that the north valley isn’t as safe and fancy as south valley but I think the culture and diversity only gets richer! It’s all perspective I guess
Is the traffic bad in the valley?
Anthony Recenello depends on where you want to drive! To get from north valley to south valley, it’s like 20-25 on a good day..depends on a lot of things. In comparison to LA, it’s not bad at all
Trust me, you get used to "sketch" reeeal quick when you're poor asf. Lol Just be lucky you can afford anything.
Lisa Zoria........One of the smartest comments I've ever read.
Lisa Zoria......very smart and practical comment.
Lisa Zoria i feel you Man. Born and raised in the poor area of the city I live in. I can’t really see living any other way. Key to it: Mind your own business and nobody will try anything with you.
Sketch is the norm
White girl problems
you mean, "hotel room #1" because thats exactly what that was...a motel turned apartment building lol
Right!! Lol
Yeah that is exactly what it was
I still find 1500 $ SO expensive for an apartment, and you even need a roommate wow
Wages are higher here than most of the rest of the country though. A job making 16.50$ an hr here would only make 11$ an hour in Phoenix.
David Hunt not always true. I’m a teacher and wouldn’t make anymore in LA than I do in Eastern Washington where my mortgage payment on my 1600 sq ft, 3 bed, 2.5 bath house is $1,000 a month. 😂
you must not live in LA san fran dc or nyc which have the most insane rents in the country
its very expensive. I love being from cali but its way too expensive. regardless of all the things they have around it, its still not worth it and never will be lol
David Hunt still.$1500 to shared a apartment? Plus that first apartment is shit.
This was so incredibly helpful for when I move lol. Shelby always killin it with the content🤩🤩❤️
"The Valley is pretty random"
Shit people not from LA say...girl, the Valley is not bad. Calm down.
The Four23 literally if you are from La you most likely live in the valley or around like burbank/glendale/pasadena/eagle rock. We keep distance from Santa Monica/Hollywood unless we have too
LOL so true... No one from LA cares about the valley, we all basically live there. Only people from Ohio live in Santa Monica. Oh jeez. just thinking about living there is so awful to me.
Love the valley, so convenient to everything but super safe.
Exactly. Thank you. I was annoyed at this whole video. "Old", "old", "random", "weird" Uhhh, clearly you are not from LA.
The Valley is the best
When I think of los angles all I think about is GTA😂💀
In NYC, you wouldn't even get that much space for $1500/ month, with a few exceptions.
Joe Dazey New Yorkers United agaisnt, RUclipsrs complaining about la rent.
@@nygisgod Really, it's a matter of bad or worse. For those who would want to live in NYC but without the high expense, there are some public housing that are in areas that are not shabby. however, that is far from a given, like playing a lottery of sort. I am not sure if LA even has that possibility.
Nycs a shithole though. La all day
She didn’t really stay in LA , it was the surrounding cities and they were still kind of far from LA LA
Chicago is the happy medium 😂
I’d live in the closet before I’d have a roommate. You can only trust yourself.
My name is James martine I moved from USA in last the 5months, because of my job transfer to Australia , I and my family have be looking for who might be interested in renting our 2bedroom apartment in Los Angeles . We’re putting it on lent since no one to take care of it . If you are Interested please text me (570) 260-6826
And again no agent fees required , we are putting it down at an affordable price.
Amen
the first apartment seems like plenty of space for 1 person
Agree, this girl is really spoiled
nobody:
everyone: talks about how much cheaper it is to live in their crappy town where nobody would want to live.
“Kentucky” 😂😂
King John 🤣
Frrl
Yea but La has a lot of jobs it cost a lot but you make more
@@NotBen101 Exactly! That has been my exact experience in NYC. I was worried about making it here, but there is so much more money to be made doing the same stuff I was trying to do in Texas for less.
This chick is clearly not from Cali.
I’d choose The Valley (Glendale,Burbank, Van Nuys , North Hollywood, Calabasas) over Santa Monica any day 😌
amen i was born and raised in California :)
Dude , all she said was “I was born and raised in California” doesn’t mean she’s showing off I-
I'm from Louisiand and I LOVE THE VALLEY! lol Especially Noho and Burbank.
I live in the Valley!
I mean. California is a big state. She could be from up north 🤷🏻♂️
"This weird little patio situation" LMAO Shelby
Remember, for the most part, increased rent also goes with higher paying jobs. Not always, but generally you'll need to adjust the numbers based on your city.
Let's not forget the fact that most people who go to LA are trying to make it big with Hollywood or other art forms so such individuals typically don't even have a fixed professional level job with a fixed high income.
@@tobe3940 I’m thanking God I’m moving to LA with a college degree. It truly changes my earning potential… but I’m still looking for a really cheap apartment though
I’ve lived in the valley my whole life and I work in LA and I don’t think I could ever live in the city. Even thought the drive isn’t that great, I’d rather live in a quiet and nice area than a crowded one. 🤷🏻♀️
same i love the valley, dtla sucks.
I LOVEEE THIS VIDEO! This is hands down soooo helpful living in LA and wanting to look for a place!
I love these videos omgggg living for this content Shelby!!! I would pick number 3 as well because the location looks amazing!
shelby your production quality is AMAZING !! i love the way your channel is changing 😍
i love watching videos like this, helps me appreciate housing prices where i live...
La apartments be like- We only like white walls with grey wood
Lexi Frasier makes the rooms appear bigger than they are, more reflective of light.
So true 🤧
im a few weeks or months out from moving to LA and i love these videos theyre so informative!!!
Well the first one looked pretty bad! But the other two were gorgeous! All ya need is a friend...easier said than done...😬
Hugh
There’s noo kitchen tho..
I mean if you have a car you can get food or take a bus?..
Hugh
oOp that’s a lot D:
A friend that's also willing to pay that much too.
Love how u went straight to the point
You make very interesting content really love your channel!! Keep it up!!
I love the second one! :) Also, love this kind of content Shelby so keep it up!
The valley has some great areas-Sherman Oaks, Studio City, Encino etc etc.
Yes it does. I lived in studio city, Sherman oaks and Encino. Also woodland hills, Topanga canyon. All great areas in the valley..
That's true but the rents can get really pricy in those areas. I would say Northridge has some decent priced places and is in a good area, thanks to csun.
Don’t forget about Toluca Lake 😊
I agree! I live in Northridge and there are some great places here! She made me laugh when she said the valley was random
NoHo’s really renovated these days. Not to mention Toluca Lake
Love this video! Keep up the good work Shelby 👍
LOVE YOUR WORK! I'm happy in Fort Laud but its very fun to fantasize … SO NICE TO SEE AN HONEST RUclipsR!!!!
I remember when I first moved to LA and I had a 900 sq ft really nice 1 bedroom in MDR for $2000, still expensive but that same apartment is now over $3k...so sad
East of LA there are a few 2bdrm houses listed for $1000-$1200/m. I don’t know the area, but it might be worth checking out. Also, north of North Hollywood, there are listings for older 3bdrm houses for $15-1600/m
That 3rd apartment (in Bel-Air) is the apt right next to my old one. Mine was a pretty decent sized place & clean for $1600/month. The area is amazing and kind of far away from the “LA” feel, so of course I would pick that one.
I lived in LA my entire life. #2 looks like a trap in that the surrounding neighborhood is a complete dump and yet it is this shiny new complex that will only attract the worst elements of the 818. I agree with you, if I had to choose #3 is by far the best choice overall.
I’m moving to LA in a couple months, this is giving me some good ideas on where and how to look for places! (And I would def pick #2)
Grace Hyde Stay in Alabama, or Kentucky, or where ever you’re from. We don’t need another person contributing to gentrification and overpopulation.
Hi Shelby,
I would like more videos like this, yes. More videos about LA living, tips, eating, cool spots, and even nearby cities like OC or Ventura/SB. Love ur vids
takicardia Ventura/Santa Barbara is an hour away with good traffic. Usually more like 2 hours though. OC is a county not a city but huntington beach and new port beach are really nice (just as expensive as the city though) it can take me an hour and a half to get to new port beach mid day. About an hour and 15 minutes from Hollywood area to Anaheim and same to Huntington Beach. Going to any of these places is considered southern California not so much LA. So if you are interested in living in LA you will feel very disconnected from the city if you chose these places to live. I feel disconnect from LA even when I go to long beach and it's in the same county. If you don't already live in LA and are interested Glendale and Pasadena and the valley are better options. It gets hot in the valley though. I prefer the west side of LA. I also like silver lake, echo park, and los feliz. You are going to be paying a good amount of money to live in those places.
Fun video! Very accurate for Los Angeles :)
Very Nice video Shelby keep up with this kind of very interesting content ,cant wait to see this for other cities 😘
Living with a roomate can be tricky, I have had several there was one good roomate, 4 okay roomates and 2 very messy/crazy/dangerous roomates. If the roomate lost their job you could be stuck paying the entire bill? What would you do if you had to pay $3000 a month? What if you're roomate starts smoking a bunch of pot inside the unit, you don't smoke but you're afraid the second hand smoke will endanger you're health and make you fail one of you're companies random drug tests and there is nothing you can do to get rid of the roomate. What if you're roomate changes their motor cycle oil on the carpet and you don't want to pay for the damage? What if you're roomate starts partying late on weekdays and you can't can't get enough sleep to do a good job at work. Its better to get you're own place but in alot of big cities you can't, you can't always get to know a roomate before you commit either sometimes the location of you're job changes with little notice and you need to quickly find something. If I had to have a roomate I would want to put a simple set of rules that everyone agreed on in writing and I would have everyone sign that document.
#1 was pretty nice, plus you can always ad on rooms like the neighbor did
Honestly, this is my first video I watched and you got a new subscriber 🙃😁
Thanks a lot for the video , it was so eye opening and realistic
Location location location!!!!! Also this was a really interesting video. Definitely would watch more like this:)
I think in LA a 1bedroom apartment in the style of #2 would be around $2,000 (starting)
definitely more like 2400
More like 2600 at least.
Yeah but wages are higher there. New Yorkers don't make the same wage as someone from Lincoln, Nebraska.
frances r make that $2500 in 2020
San Francisco is $3,700
I agree with Shelby ! location number 3 is the way to go ! Great presentation !
quality vlog here wow totally earned my sub
I live in Ohio and the price of living is wayyyyy cheaper... so none of the above 😳😂
Ali White i live in Ohio too & I was thinking the same thing 😂😂
I miss Ohio mostly for that reason, but I'm happy I moved to LA for many others. You pay for your location essentially.
Cleveland getting pricey in last 4 years. Downtown and tiedmont area
But Ohio isnt nice like California
Sarah Givens agreed!
Awkward I was looking at the first apartment to move into haha but I didn’t get the job I interviewed for so no moving from nyc to LA for me!! It’s not the best but it would’ve been in my price range 🤷🏻♀️
Never seen a video of yours until today but the quality is astounding
how to write longer words in your essay: overall the aprt wasn't bad it was awesome, but overall the aprt wasn't bad and the place is awesome. Love it!!
Wow, I lived in Hollywood $1,100 up until 2016 was but the rent kept going up lived there from 2006 only paid $650 a month. But the last two years they started Jacking up the rent from $740 to the $1100. Bought a condo in Panarama City for $150,000. Pay about a $1200 in mortgage now that is including the HOA.
LA is getting crazy like San Francisco.
Dang really?! That sounds nice, and Panorama City is developing into an even better neighborhood. I wish I could find a condo for that price.
Joseph Jagatic Which townhomes do you recommend to live in La ? Somewhere where I can park my car in a garage 🙏🏻
I can just sleep in my Chevy van shower at the gym, and save $1500.
They are everywhere, RVs and Vans. You can live in much nicer spot if you live in a van.
@ andromeda. no , shes a smart girl. save money , put that 1500 a month into the stock market and she'll have 3 million in 30 years.
i thought every American has a big American Dream???
@@zambianyoutuberx yep untill you realize it's hard asf to do and every one wants it not everyone can do it
Same lol but I sleep in a storage unit depending on the area you can get away with it luckily for where I live I can get away with sleeping in my unit and the buses are free luckily but it’s cold like one night I slept in -13 i plan to move back south though I can’t take the cold for 8 months out the year
i love how your videos are edited ! subscribed!🤩
thanks for this video noone ever does this!!! it was so informative so thx again! 💙💜💕🙋🏻♀️
Hey Shelby, I’m a real estate agent here in LA and I love these videos that you’re doing! If you ever need help getting access to some of these properties or you are looking for ideas on properties to visit let me know anytime!
Chase Denell bet u jus tryna hit it thou
It looks like apartment “YOU” was filmed
Maddy lmao
I thought that too! 😂😂😂
I liked #2 ♥️♥️♥️
Can’t deny the lighting is beautiful 😌
The last house I really liked!! I have learned so much on your channel!
2 because it is really my style and not that expensive
Also I’m the kind of guy where I would go out a lot but not in the city that much
if it was 50 minutes from downtown then I’d chose.... 3
Welcome to Toronto prices, also. Studios here are going for those prices
Just saying, Love the effort you put into the video
Wow this need more views. There’s so much effort into this video! It’s like a house hunting show but for more younger viewers
For 1500 dollars where I live Greece in Athens you can get a brand new modern, three room house with a patio, two bathrooms great view and around 100 cm3 in size well I guess that south Europe is more inexpensive 🙃
Europe is a continent bro, Netherlands is much more expensive lol
Honestly that weird patio situation was probably someone filming a RUclips video lmao
It was probably a Sukkah (for the Jewish holiday Sukkot)
Hahahaha
@@natalieedelstein being Orthodox religious I immediately thought the same, but when I paused the video i saw that it had a tarp on the roof of it. According to Jewish law, a sukkah must have a roof made of organic material. Bamboo, wood, leaves, etc
@@gottgainz6477 interesting.
#3 for me,great info Shelby!
Thank you for that research Shelby. I'll move to Palisades in April.
The first apartment in Philippines that apartment would only cost $140 or 7,000 pesos.
@C N it's in tagum city, Davao del Norte.
Number 3. I wouldn't even notice the style is "old".
Watching this video I now understand why in every American show, they're always going on about " roommate wanted" lol
I pay $1,800 for a 2 bed, 2 bath guest house in LA - all utilities included and it has a pool and jacuzzi. There’s gems all over if you get away from apartment complexes.
I said I would never live in the Valley but gave in and I actually really like it here. You get more for your money and there's not as many parking restrictions.
And I was planing on moving to Cali BUT the price of these apartments I think NOT🙅🏽♂️😂
This is all about perspective. 1500 is not a lot at all coming from NY.
@ltlblugrl I cant speak for them. But honestly the weather was a much greater factor as to why I came to California
@Brittney Hall this is why I love living in Australia soo much, for $3000usd you can easily get a nice 10000sqft 4bed/4.5bath house with a decent size backyard and with a pool
@@jellytwins1018 that sounds amazing! But isnt there the risk of dangerous animals on your property?
@Brittney Hall lol nah not at all, I know Australia is portrayed like the whole country is a zoo, but that’s only in specific areas and most of them aren’t residential areas. The only animals you would find in residential areas are Possums (small cat/mouse like animals) but they only appear at night time and they just jump around on house roofs looking for food and they are really scared of all other animals and people
@@jellytwins1018 oh well then you have it made lol
Wow also strategic location of residence.. beautiful kitchen😍
If any of you guys are moving to LA, I recommend moving to Compton or south central!! it’s such a good area 😍
1500 for a room? in Ohio I pay 670 for a 1000 sq foot 2 bed 2 bath lol like this is wild.
Vee A I mean same. But here I am.
But overall the apartment wasn’t bad and the location was awesome repeated at 4:50
It cracks me up how owners charge tenants high rent for basically squat housing. #3 is quaint, but 1500 is above my budget.
I mean they also have to pay their mortgage, which is probably pretty pricey too
I would pick num 3 nice video 😍
We live in Japan and houses in Japan aren't so spacious
Ok on the first one when she went in that one motel looking part, did anyone else get shinbi apartment vibes?
it's so expensive that's probably why many people are going car/van life.
Really liked the van Nuys location! Have a wonderful day beautiful lady😘😘😘 xox
I'd definitely go with #2. I personally don't mind the distance from everything plus its a little less than $1500 with a roommate.
You can find a 1 bedroom apt for $1500 in Koreatown in LA. Not impossible to find places, you just really gotta hunt for them.
K town is trash no parking mad traffic permit parking only dirty bums everywhere oh and people park on top of the sidewalk when there's no more parking
IvanDeeTerrible Well you’re not wrong...but at least the food is good!
But overall the apartment wasn’t bad and the location was awesome and we got the point on #3
Can you do another vid like this except keep it to only one-bedroom apartments?
#3 for sure they can update the light fixture plates and door knobs and U would be good!
I live in the valley. #2 was probably one of the newer buildings here and it’s pretty nice. You can most definitely find an apartment in the valley for under $1500 and live on your own. Yes it won’t be like number 2 but it won’t be like #1 either. You just have to be open to the idea of it.
Edit: the valley is not far from everything. I live in the area of #2 and I can get to Hollywood in about 15-20 minutes. That’s less than it would take from Santa Monica in traffic. The valley has a lot to offer. It takes me 30-45 minutes to get to Santa Monica but that because the 405 is a parking lot 24/7
Eva Delgado thank you! I was thinking the same exact thing. Sherman Oaks and Studio City are just a few streets down. Toluca Lake is just 5 minutes away. I love the Valley. I noticed those that live in the west side are usually those who just moved here.
@@marinemalkchyan2580 what places are affordable for around 1500 a month rent. Sherman oaks?
@@georgekelly5987 this video is pretty outdated (3 years ago) so unfortunately you can’t really find much in the Valley for 1500, especially not in the Sherman Oaks area as the average rent around here for a one bedroom is around $1900-2K (depending on the building and exact location). You would have to look further down in the Pacoima/Sun Valley areas for something a bit more affordable in the Valley.
@@marinemalkchyan2580 damn how do people even afford living over in Cali?
Yass my husband and I feel blessed we pay $1,480 a month for a two story guest house with a master bedroom with huge walk in closet + a living room /kitchen in the bottom & we have a little backyard and our own private entrance.
+ free wifi & washer & dryer amenities.
Thank you Jesus.
We can't all live in Kansas.
We can’t all live in Kentucky.
Katie Caceres amazing u go girl
I feel she is so deserving for keeping things as they are!
you've been acing it with your content lately!!
I would definitely pick number 3! (If I had the money lol, at the moment LA in general is just too expensive for me)
wtf the second one in Van Nuys is amazing compared to what i get in dc but i’m walking distance to everything
Well living in Van Nuys would be the equivalent of you not living in DC but in a smaller commuter town in the greater DC area.
@darkchurchhill: Actually, Van Nuys is in fact in Los Angeles proper (i.e, the City of Los Angeles). A lot of people think that neighborhoods in the San Fernando Valley are not in LA, but the vast majority are.
Ive never had my own place, so any of those sound nice! The first looks like it'd get a bit tense with a few people crammed in a motel-style, but home is just a word linked to a mentality.
I live in Pasadena about 15 minutes from LA. For 3 bedrooms for 2500 is cheap. The good apartments are 3000 a bedroom.
