- Can you please explain this hairball?
- You decided to - You decided.
- Have cleaners,
however the cleaners were very faulty
and the vacuum ran in reverse.
(laughing)
- You're not getting your deposit back.
- What, no wait, wait, wait.
- They said no deposit!
(cheerful music)
- What's up guys I'm Timothy Delaghetto,
rapper, actor, comedian.
Today's episode is about housing.
So we are gonna write down if you guys have any ideas
for your dream house, lets do this.
- I want a little brick house
that looks little from the outside,
but when you go in it's two floors.
- I'm gonna have servants and I wanna be rich.
- It's this incredibly nice apartment,
you look south on Central Park,
Empire State Building,
probably the best view in all of New York City.
- I want a golden toilet.
- Golden toilet.
- Yes.
- Really made out of gold?
- Yeah, it's made out of gold.
- So do you know what it means to pay rent?
- My parents rented a house, but I don't think I know.
- So renting is when you don't own the house but
- Yeah.
- you're paying every month to stay there.
I brought in a home girl who's an experts on landlords
and renting, make some noise for my friend Ashley.
(clapping)
Here you go, they're all yours.
- So I'm a Seattle resident,
and I happen to work in the housing industry.
Do you see people in Seattle that are not living in houses?
- [Child] All the time
- They're called bums.
- Yes, so bums is kinda a mean term for a person
that is unhoused.
- Awkward.
(laughing)
- Houseless.
- Houseless or unhoused.
Do yo know what a landlord is?
- It's the person that, if you had bought a house,
and you decide to rent it out to somebody,
then you become the landlord.
- How often do you have to pay rent?
- I think every year.
- You actually have to pay rent every month,
and if you don't pay rent you're gonna get a notice,
tacked on your door and it's called an eviction notice.
Do you know what a security deposit is?
- Is it a down payment?
- It's sort of like a down payment,
when you move you basically have to make sure that you
leave the place the same way that when you came in.
- Is it easy to get your security deposit back?
- Sort of,
there's some nice landlords,
there's some okay landlords,
there's some mean landlords.
So now were gonna do - Fun.
- an activity
that you're gonna try to get your security deposit
back from me the landlord.
Mackenzie, what is this juice doing on this white rug?
- Maybe someone spilled it on there on accident?
- Even if it was an accident its still on the rug.
- All right listen here.
(laughter)
That carpet I brought in and it's mine.
- Oh, you know what I forgot.
Yeah this is actually not my carpet okay ,okay.
- [Female] (murmur) got her deposit back.
Michela can you tell me why this doorknob is out
of the door and disconnected.?
- So the doorknob came off,
we couldn't get it back on because we didn't
have the right equipment.
- I need to look at all the doorknobs.
We're gonna have to hold onto your security deposit.
[All] Ooooo!
- That's fine I have nothing to hide.
(laughter)
- Oh that's disgusting!
- Disgusting.
- Oh god.
- So.
- This is ridiculous.
- You signed the lease,
and on the lease it says absolutely no pets allowed.
Can someone explain this to me?
- So I'm a scientist,
and in the lab we were working with owl pellets
and there was a giant owl.
- How does this help?
- That ate some furry things
and I was bringing it home to study it.
- Well you knew the move out inspection was today.
- It left no stains on the carpet as you can see.
- Well I do really appreciate that your a scientist.
- Sandor, Michela can you please explain this hairball?
- You decided to - You decided to.
- have cleaners, it's an open house right?
You need it to be spic and span,
- Clean.
- However the cleaners were faulty
and the vacuum ran in reverse.
(laughter)
- This is getting really confusing.
- No, no, no, so okay basically.
- You're not getting your deposit back.
- The dirt bag in the.
What?
- They said no deposit okay!
- You all are so good. - I'm not.
- at reasoning out of your security deposit obligations.
I think you're all gonna be excellent renters,
always remember read your contracts,
and you have rights.
(cheerful music)
So since rents so expensive,
were gonna show you one solution
which is just to live in a really, really small apartment.
- So Mackenzie do you now what we are here to do today?
- A little.
- Right here we have a micro studio.
You know what that is?
- Nope, don't have a clue.
- That's basically a really tiny space that people live in
and out here in Seattle,
they're paying twelve hundred dollars
a month to live in there.
All right so Mackenzie now you gotta pick the stuff
that you wanna put in your micro studio apartment
because you don't have room for all of it.
- The bed.
- The bed, okay.
(upbeat music)
So this is like right next to the front door watch out
cause like what if someone opens the door,
and knocks the books down?
- No one will be entering, I barley know anyone.
(upbeat music)
- You know sometimes these little micro studio
apartments don't even have a bathroom in them.
- I could go to the woods.
(upbeat music)
- Okay so now you probably wanna make it a little homie,
you know have a little something nice you wanna hang up.
(upbeat music)
How do you like your new apartment?
- Perfect!
So you come in from the door.
- Yeah.
- You go to sleep, you can cook some food.
And you can sit down, have my books.
- I think you did a good job.
So what did you learn from this experience making
your own house?
- I learned if you don't have enough money,
you have to do what you have to do.
- Facts.
So I love what you did with the place,
Are you ever gonna have me over to hang out?
- Sure, and bring some more of your pictures.
- (laughing) Okay, I will do that.
Thank for inviting me over Mackenzie.
(clanging and banging)
(laughing)
- What happened to my house!
- I'm Timothy Delaghetto, you guys know me right?
You've seen all my videos right?
- [All] No.
- Of coarse you have.
- I have a blue house.
- [Child] And it's really cool.
- And it's really cool.
- Yeah, so there are bodies in that refrigeration unit.
- Wait, is someone in there right now?
- So who pays for the Dentist when you guys go?
- Insurance?
- How do you like your new apartment?
Good.
- Nice, we found candy.
