    Love this video so much. I moved to New York in August of 2015 for school but am currently apartment hunting right now. This literally saved my life because I had no idea what a broker was and subletting, etc. You're the best

    I'm hoping to move to NYC in August. This gives me 9 months to plan! I have one roommate. Since we will be splitting rent, do we have to earn 40x rent each or are we okay as long as we have 40x combined?

    • @SpokenHome
      @SpokenHome  9 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      +Lauren Baxter Hey! Best of luck with your move! When it comes to 40x the rent, that would be split between the both of you as long as you're BOTH on the lease. If only one of you guys end up on the lease, they will not consider the extra income at all. So you should be okay in that stance :)

    Hiiii guys! Loved your videos! So helpful. THANK YOU! I tried sending an email to the real estate agents you recommended; but it bounced back :-( ! Would it be any other email that I can contact them? Thank youuuuu! Would love to see a video talking about parking and storage costs.

    • @SpokenHome
      @SpokenHome  9 ปีที่แล้ว

      +Tatiane Almeida Hey! So sorry that it bounced, we just double-checked on the emails should be valid. You have ben@spiregroupny.com ? And if it bounces again, feel free to PM us and we can forward your email to him! We still keep in contact :) *And we'd love to share an updated video about parking storage, unexpected fees, etc*

    The 40x ratio... It is yearly income before taxes?

    • @SpokenHome
      @SpokenHome  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      They are looking for your "take home" amount. So after taxes/benefits are withdrawn.

    who the hell earns 80,000 $ a month?!?! what do you do for a living? OMG..

    • @SpokenHome
      @SpokenHome  8 ปีที่แล้ว +14

      So sorry we weren't more clear about this one, good catch! The 40x & 80x rent rule is a little confusing and hard to explain. It's basically the total annual income that you make, which must equal or exceed 40x or 80x the monthly rent cost. So if rent is $2,000 a month, it would require $80k to $160k total annual income. Hope that makes more sense. We're with you, would be awesome to make $80k a month though!! 🤑
