    $3,200 for a studio with laundry, $4,500 for a 1.5 bedroom, $3,700 for a large one-bedroom, $3,000 for an aging but reasonably-sized unit, $4,650 for a 2.5 bedroom place. You gotta have a good, solid job to afford any of these.

    I gotta say, I couldn't find one darned thing wrong with the first apartment. So, I'll stretch: the windows were dirty. I'd love to have that one! Really well thought-out, no stairs, in-apt laundry! It's got it all! I must be getting used to the rents in NYC, because I thought that thirty-something was pretty reasonable. The others would all be good for any situation that fit them. A couple with one or two children would probably like the apt that had one bedroom significantly smaller than the other. But the first one was a winner. Nice mix Cash!

    I think that 1st apartment at some point had been a doctor's office. I've seen plenty of buildings here in the city that have that type of setup. The renovation wasn't bad but there's no way I'd live in a place with the door directly onto the sidewalk. I'm from NYC & people can be as$holes bandung in your door bcuz they think it's funny. Also I wonder if it's still registered as a commercial unit in which case it would be an illegal apartment. I loved the 3rd apartment with the sunken living room & a doorman to take in deliveries is wonderful (you know you'd needed get your amazon packages at the 1st place). It may not have had an in-unit laundry but the shared 1 in the basement was bright & clean & certainly had enough updated machines

    1st one bed @ $3300K/month was very nice but it's a ground floor. I liked the 2nd, 2/bed apt (but, of course it's a Charles listing) at $4500/month. That shelf is perfect for "A SHRINE TO YOU GOD!" WOWEE! $3700/month for that 3rd apt with ALL of that space, a doorman, etc? You won't have to worry about having too many cooks in that kitchen! Apt #4 at $3K/month wasn't bad at all. I could be happy there. The 5th apt I liked better than the 4th because it had a bit more space but it isn't on the market. The 6th apartment at $4700/month wasn't bad (nor the rent) if a 3-person roommate situation could happen. My today's winner is.... Apartment #3! Other than the kitchen, there was character, a lot of space, a doorman, etc!

    • @Bobrogers99

      Yeah, the renovations were either in process or incomplete, and dirty grout around a bathtub isn't a good sign. The studio had in-unit laundry and one other had in-building laundry, but otherwise it's a trek to the laundromat. Sharing requires two or more decent-sized bedrooms and more than one bathroom, which none of these offered. We've seen better prospects for the price.
      BTW, that niche could only accommodate electronic candles.

    The first Apt it’s perfect to open a tacos 🌮 / sushi 🍱 shop to pay the rent,😅 the second Apt it’s perfect to add 3 more rooms and make a mini hotel to rent it on AirBNB at 200$ per night to pay that rent 😅😂 in New York no even making 30$ per hours 40 hours per week. anyone can afford that kind of a rent. Saying how it’s as a New Yorker . But thank you for sharing 😄

    I loved the first place, a person could set up shop in the front room and set up the back for private living. Just hide the kitchen wall with a curtain, put up a sign, and sell your wares or services. Hair salon, tattooist, artist with art. The weird niche looks perfect for one of those alcohol fueled fireplaces with the gass marbles.

    Have not seen that episode of "Friends" about Phoebe's smoke detector? Don't be surprised, if FDNY shows up at your door.

    The 1st one is the winner only problem it's on the ground floor. I would be afraid of someone breaking in
