in this video we are showing you the cheapest most affordable apartments in all
of new york city let's do it
a few months ago i filmed a video with my good friend cash jordan one of new york
city's top rental agents showing you the smallest apartments in new york city and in today's video
we are showing you the cheapest most affordable apartments in all of manhattan just made my way
up to harlem heading to apartment number one how you doing today cash not bad you ready to see
some cheap places another goal this video like i mentioned at the start was to find the most
well that's kind of loud inside the apartment it's not that bad all right
man come on in i'm shocked quick little tour of this first place this is the front door entry
off to the right here this is the first bedroom you know it's not ideal you have windows by the
view of an alleyway all the lighting is recessed into the ceiling and i love this the exposed brick
nice closet space actually not bad at all leaving the first bedroom actually let me point this out
so these you wouldn't really find this in an apartment in this price point but pocket doors
like that's pretty luxurious right and then we have your living room
again coffered ceilings did not expect that here we have oh wow look at this check this out
another bathroom so what is this cash two bathroom two bananas brand new bathroom i mean look at this
vanity mirror even have the textured walls here shower decent size again there's all
this beautiful texture a bit low for me you can make it work though back out into the living room
we now have the kitchen which is also pretty nice you have this brand new four burner deep set sink
is there a sink sprayer yeah is there it's hidden oh look at this stealth wow
that's a staple in your videos probably the most important thing is laundry in the apartment this
is the only place we're looking at today that i'm aware of has laundry not even
just in the building but in the apartment itself and look at these bathrooms there's
two of these and they're gorgeous oh wow that's a nice bathroom nice full-length mirror here
wine fridge so funny look at it you look like a monster trying to open like a can of tuna
yeah yeah i do love they made this place pretty modern and then like cash was saying laundry
washer dryer more storage here then we have additional bedroom here decent size and then this
outdoor terrace you have a decent view i mean it's better than nothing
that outdoor space is pretty awesome is this with the apartment as well
yeah it's private oh so this hole actually i'm going to walk down here so you can see
so you also get this whole essentially backyard you can put patio furniture out here i mean you
could obviously put a hot tub out here like a jacuzzi right in the corner yeah if you wanted
you could rent it out to your cheap friends that want to save money we head back in on this side
and this would be the third third and final bedroom and they're all pretty decent size wow
i'm shocked oh geez you're looking around less than 700 each the market has spiked a little bit
there is some seasonality to it a few months ago this probably would have been a lot closer to two
thousand dollars it wasn't two thousand dollars but i saw similar apartments to this just a couple
months ago back in march and in april that were a lot cheaper just because the market hadn't kicked
in that recovery that new york city reopening hadn't happened yet so if you divide the rent in
three parts everybody's gonna pay a thousand bucks and that's a price point that a lot of people have
in mind when they're moving to new york it's still a lot of money by comparison but if you can get a
nice place that's clean like this for a thousand bucks i think you're gonna be happy with it
so this is also a three bedroom apartment it is 29.74 now even though the price is very similar
to what we just saw since we're downtown in a neighborhood with a higher popularity tax
attached to it this is gonna look a lot different let's go see it not bad entry nice high ceilings
older building what floor we on we're going up pretty high all right you're getting your
steps in the building not as new of a feeling as the one we just saw in harlem but like cash
was saying this neighborhood is super popular very desirable so that will reflect in the condition of
this apartment wow i like the sunlight southern facing not too bad don't worry about that stuff
don't drink it either what's that on the floor there i don't want to know it's nice and for the
area a lot of stuff here doesn't have like a fresh feeling to it you know you can see this is painted
well there's good tile you said that so nicely a lot of the things don't have a fresh feeling
we're in the lower east side here's the breakdown of this apartment front door right here off to
our left we have here come on in here cash we have this this is your bathroom uh as you can see from
the framing it's not the most spacious we're gonna go with cozy so shower here right down below so we
have the toilet and off to the corner there is the vanity and that's the bathroom let's make our way
out of here walk past this room and whatnot so then the place opens up into this common space
common space if you want to call it that that's that's where we're at now is the kitchen but check
this out all three of the rooms are right next to each other so that's it yeah that's it two
and three yep that's the whole place all things considered the fact that you have sunlight in an
apartment where you're paying a thousand dollars per month that's pretty good also exposed brick
i like that a lot ceiling fan full-length mirror back out into the kitchen we have what would you
say would be the the best bedroom this one that one yeah we'll go in here first so again not
that bad decent sized space this one no sunlight directly but we do have this fire escape so you
could go out there a little bigger than the last one and then finally we have bedroom number three
you know this one i would say is probably the least of the three because it's not a
perfect square the closet just out here nine feet nine inches by seven feet three inches
wow tight i mean the positive is that it exists look at this like the paint's not terrible this is
where you have that sacrifice come into play that first place beautiful i was shocked but you're
up in harlem you're about a 30 minute drive 40 minute train ride from all the cool stuff downtown
here we're downtown we're in it and that reflects in a place that's not bad but just not as nice
right now we're on the corner of mcdougall and bleaker street's one of the most popular parts
of lower manhattan believe it or not there's tons of restaurants around here so even if the
apartment's not perfect the neighborhood just might be so far everything that we've looked at
is going to save you money but the catch was that you had to have a roommate butt just on the other
side of that door you don't have to make that sacrifice and you can still get something that is
relatively affordable like cash mentioned this is in case you're looking to not have roommates and
you just want to be living alone here in the city this gets you in at two thousand dollars per month
and this is the apartment welcome right into the kitchen we have the older summit appliances tiny
sink storage area even more above the door here your nice coat hanging area some more shelving
this is your bathroom does the light work the light is out let's just head in here
so you can get a little view of this place shower the vanity right in front we'll get
some measurements in a second but i would guess two feet give or take then we're caches let's
switch that's your toilet again the vanity and the mirror right here a little medicine cabinet
storage let's head out of here so this is a loft we are in the west village and this is probably
six foot maybe so this the ceiling is a little low but again you have natural sunlight you have some
greenery back here on your fire escape and now this is where it gets interesting check this out
so you have your ladder which goes up to to your sleeping wall so this is all just your sleeping
loft even have a little light up here so the sleeping area seven feet eight inches by seven
feet three inches that's not horrible that's not that bad so here you come after a long day at work
this is your sleeping loft i'd say was this two and a half foot clearance
it is nice though because you do have your light switch here outlet all that and ventilation screen
right here so you can look into your kitchen so this is it this is two thousand dollars
in the west village and it is hotter than helen here for that luxury of living by yourself this
is not bad you are in the heart of the west village right by washington square park soho
right down on the other side of houston street and yes this is the smallest we're getting into
that tiny micro studio realm now uh and for 2000 i mean if you're willing to pay that and live alone
this is the spot for you now it may not be the most comfortable thing to live in a tiny micro
studio like the one that we just saw but it allows you to use your hard-earned cash for other things

in soho this is a steal so amanda did a great job with utilizing space and design so there's a lot
of shells a lot of vertical storage this is the entryway behind us we have the vertical bar here
and you were saying these are cbt cb2 and then the mix of the ikea this is actually cv2 this table
so this is the splurge and if we swivel around here cash you want to just like let's change
places i'm not good at this so then this is the back view you have what is this a full-size bed
yeah then you have the home office here at the desk more of that awesome shelving a fireplace
which is super rare in the city again the mantle which is shelving from ikea is that right
and then mounted flat screen on the wall with the fireplace i love that you've got
the lg refrigerator here built into this nice little storage unit kitchen is awesome
it's brand new deep set sink these awesome little tap these are magnets yeah magnet
lights four burner stove top and then behind us here how should we do this should we all i

living here cash has lived in a tiny apartment i have as well to see what you've done it's pretty
awesome then if you come back here cash this is the secondary closet and then here we have the
bathroom with a pretty here let's get on in here also check out my feet i have the shoe cover it's
