We definitely have a housing problem in AZ. The prices are outrageous and the wages & jobs aren't matching with housing prices. We're headed for a housing crisis. I weep for the youth who don't have homes, equity or the decent jobs to even buy a home here. The disparities and wealth gaps are getting bigger and bigger.
That is a widespread problem. I live in a small town, there is a big gap between the wealthy people & the not so wealthy people. Most people in this town can't afford to pay more than $500. per month. There are people asking $600. monthly to rent & live in an RV, run down trailer rentals, homes that could easily be condemned. It keeps the wealthy people wealthy while keeping the not so wealthy living in poverty.
Thankyou for sympathizing for us younger generation. I feel like our concerns about this issue are always pushed aside by older generations claiming prices going up by this much are just the norm, so hearing a older person advocate for us and validate our worries is comforting
@@freenchrist2935 I moved to Texas in 2012. Long story, this is the short version. I thought I would have a place to stay. That didn't happen. A woman in the small town I was in owns almost the entire town. When I first got there, she gave me her business card, told me to call her if I needed anything. I called her to see if she had any vacant properties. The only one she had was a run-down trailer. She had been housing migrant construction workers for a few years. It was only $300. per month. She was willing to trust me to give her a $100. security deposit when I got paid again. She also allowed me to have my 2 trained, clean, well-behaved Yorkies. OMG! It smelled like beer, vomit & a few other gross things. I was cleaning it for 2 weeks before the stench was gone. I lived there for 6 months before I was financially able to move closer to where I was working. Although it was in much better condition, I did some touch up paint, fixed 2 ceiling fans. I was so broke I couldn't afford to pay attention. When I moved out she wouldn't give my security deposit back. She told me that she had to fumigate because I had 2 little dogs. I went to the trailer 2 weeks after moving out as the new tenants had some of my pony express mail. The tenants told me that the landlady had told them that I had improved it so much & my dogs were so clean that she didn't need to fumigate. mm hm I had to let it go, it pissed me off, yet, I just had to move forward. I'm very fortunate to have moved into a cottage that was newly remodeled, really good landlords who live next door & are quick to fix anything that breaks, though that has only happened twice in the 6 years I have lived here. These people didn't know me. The fact that I'm a military vet really helped. It's only $600. per month for a 2 BR, 1 large BA, large opened floor plan for kitchen, living room, dining area. It also has a walled in front porch, 3 covered places for parking. I'm very grateful the landlords trusted me. I feel very fortunate.
@@plusultra234 My concern is for all those young families. Many still live at home because of these ridiculous rents. Homes are becoming unattainable and having an entire population that rents will only hurt the communities because they'll never be able to build equity. Both my kids (one is 30 and one is 26) can't afford to buy a home, and rents won't let them save for a down payment... I'm scared for them.. for all of you. I wish we could fix this.
I used to live in Tempe down the road from mill. And yesss I'm in Texas now but anything under 70 I'm freezing 🥶 what I don't miss about AZ homes is the damn gravel and no grass. God dayum someone is living in that shed. Ya gotta worry about that moving in. How did they let you see a rental house like that?! That rent is outrageous in my opinion
@@OfficialBigSuper I live in Denver, have no plans to ever move to AZ and I thorougly enjoy your videos. Homeless peeps in the shed, giant cockroaches in the kitchen, tweaker lady at the gas station. They're all soo interesting and you are very respectful of each community.
The rule I've always known for Tempe is stay south of the 60. The farther south you go, the nicer it gets. North of the 60 isn't bad if you know where to go and know it's a college town. Also, the city of Tempe has amazing resources for their residents and property keeps it's value. It's a good place to invest
@@aliniblett4287 Overstood...I'm in Houston,TX and it's always been pretty affordable here, now prices are continuously rising on everything, especially rent and home ownership. Honestly, it's getting kind of scary for us Texans.
@@screwed4life_4thward funny we lived in the Phoenix area for years and we loved it, but moved to Texas from Arizona in 2017. The pandemic made the Phoenix area and most of Texas expensive as all heck its so frustrating. To buy a house I'll need to go back to work and my husband makes good money but what's out her for what we originally wanted to spend is horrible we live in the DFW
This tour took me back. I grew up in Tempe on Rural and Southern. I had a few friends that lived in this same layout. All the cabinets and doors are like 40 years old minimum. Lol
I grew up in a house with a carport just like that, you can fit a big, tall truck in the carport no problem. There might only be a few inches of clearance but it will fit. That closet in the hallway is where they used to put the heating furnace and hot water tank back then. In this case the house was retrofitted with a new system and it's probably up in the attic now. That's the reason for the plug and the holes in the top. Lastly, those houses were built in the early 60's.
I love old school homes it could use a little upgrade and some grass, but I prefer old school than new school. New homes you can't even open your curtain cause you looking right at the neighbors window😅 and older you have more space and privacy. We appreciate ya Big Super ya gotta love AZ💛 😊😎 The prices are outrages though!
Wow! I shared a home with two roommates and it had this exact floor plan. 4 br and 2 baths, pebble tec pool, I had bedroom #3. It was between Broadway & University and Priest & Hardy but it looked better and in 2005 it was 1350 a month. I enjoyed Tempe very much. Thanks for everything you show us and bringing back some memories!
2 years ago I lived in a 5 bed/2 & 1/2 bath (no tubs), in South Scottsdale for $1200/month. It was a great find & I was there for about 5 years I think, but still, outrageous prices now.
When I saw the alley way I was nope, nope, nope. Murders, dead bodies and people watching my house while I slept came to mind. Then there's a homeless person sleeping in the shed attached to the house?!? Oh HELL no!! And $2500 for the privilege? Uh-huh.
@@rotomoto8416 🤣 Well they must be slow moving because it has been over 6 years and no Meth zombies. I think the light rail, circle k, and ambulances keep them distracted…
Yeah Tempe is sketchy AF. I used to work in Tempe right in the heart of the downtown area on Mill and there are so many homeless people on drugs. One of my coworkers actually got assaulted by a homeless man on her smoke break. He went to jail for a few weeks then was right back on the same corner
I like how you walk around the neighborhood first and show the whole area. This part of town is old now but the alleys are clean and the homes kept up. You could make this a good family home again like it used to be. Prices are so high nowadays who can afford it though. Thx for the great showing! 👍
I agree I have the same home with a much larger kitchen and huge yard with 25 ft pool need to sell but apartments are way too expensive I’m a senior and caregiver for my disabled daughter 😢
@@eileendoherty2836 Good news is that you can get a good price selling these days. My brother bought a nice mobile home in a senior park inexpensively. Don't know if that's an option for you but it's an idea....
CONGRATULATIONS TO PHOENIX, for finally catching up with California's prices on rent. It would take me renting out the rooms in this BEAUTIFUL house to 3 full time employees just to pay the rent and utilities.We still would be out of 900 a month EACH, just to cover rent and utilities NOT including food. Ya, it's NOW getting down to the nitty gritty. I don't care HOW much they want. BUY your own! The ONLY way to be free is for some unforeseen hidden devine intervention. These landlords in Phoenix are out for BLOOD, off the SWEAT of your brow!
@@davidmercer5561 I would ALSO rather pay on something I will eventually own. I could NEVER see myself paying 2500 a month, towards someone else's realestate.
I just inherited a house on E. Balboa in Tempe and it will be going up for sale by the end of the year. It is a rental with a pool. It was nice for you to show this area.
I almost always have a comment. When I first moved to AZ I stayed at studio 6 for a few months. Lots of action over there. 😳 that was 13 years ago. After seeing that a person was in that shed I am done! My first concern is safety. Second is price. At this rate I may never get back to Phoenix. 6 months still searching for affordable safe housing. Thanks for all that you do.
VERY similar to my first house in Scottsdale. Early/mid-1960s build. Good bones but I basically gutted mine in the remodel -- in 1988! This place is still an antique 🙄
I like the Formal Bedroom suggestion. Keep an eye on stuff at 4am. Security wise. Old School grill counter top. I can see the screens/TV while I'm cooking, hells ya'. Homeless person may be be a welcome to loneliness. $2500 and utilities with a desert for a yard(had one, awful). I would run.
this is crazy I actually rent in this neighborhood, its fairly nice its a great location near grocery stores. we've been having problems of people going through our trash and recycling as well. It was so crazy seeing your video and realizing I live almost right down the street.
I like how you walk through the home - it's so much easier to get the real feel of a place. Mesa is still the best value for the money though the neighborhoods are hit or miss (so is Tempe tho). 1600 square feet isn't enough space to accommodate 4 bedrooms. See that a lot in Tempe - squeezing in bedrooms to accommodate college renters.
Big Super! I'm a big fan of the channel. Keep up the great work man! I live in this neighborhood! I love it. My friend owns the house so he's renting me a room well below what the market price is. Our place was built In 1969. I think most of the houses in the hood were built in the 70's. We are right off Mcclintock road. To me the location is perfect. It takes me 1 minute to get on the 60. Half a mile from my bank, grocery store, resturants and a goodwill. It's far enough away from ASU that you miss out on most of the noise, but still close enough that Mill Ave. Is a cab ride away if that's you're thing. The neighbors have all been good. Worst ive had to deal with is a few college parties. My friend first had an issue with someone stealing from the house when he first moved in and there was still a for sale sign up but since he took the sign down we haven't had any issues. My buddy bought the place for a little over 300,000 about two years ago and Zillow has it estimated at over 500,000 right now for a 3 bedroom 2 bath. I think about 1700 square feet. Like I said I love the area and the neighborhood and having a good size yard with no HOA. I'm very blessed to be in the living situation I'm in. Hope you have a good one and keep it real as always.
For those in Arizona, I haven't seen this much in the backyards Big Super has featured: instead of spreading gravel, install decomposed granite with a stabilizer. It's low maintenance and will make the space usable. Another option would be to install decomposed granite or roadbase and overlay it with 1/2 inch of pea gravel. I don't know why landlords want to cheap out and then charge top dollar. 🤦♀️
No way would I pay $2500 for that. These flip and lease companies like Invitation Homes are ruining our neighborhoods. The turn over rate becomes high because people can't afford it.
I grew up in Iowa in a resort area called Okoboji Iowa. My dad farmed and my mom had a residential and commercial cleaning service so I've seen about everything. In that bathroom on the ceiling, that is the beginning of mold.
Tempe is my neck of the woods buddy. First video I watched of yours you were rollerblading and ended up around the town lake. Appreciate your videos dude!
The back shed room must be where you have a washer and dryer I would think. Unless college kids go to their parents house maybe? See if you can tour the ultra modern houses they’re building in our area. South side of Lookout Mountain called Paradigm by Camelot Homes. Futuristic modern design
My husband used to work in Tempe. There was a homeless camp that was set up right on the street when turning into his work . There was a guy out in a chair that would sleep out there non stop. He was out there for days sleeping away . Well, he was actually dead. It was like 120 out too. That house was scary. You can tell the landlord would be more of a slumlord with that place. He doesn’t even know about the tenant he already has 🧐.
if it was a slumlord their would holes in the wall and nothing working like ceiling fans it just a older property educate yourself what a true slumlord is
@@desertmoonlight2880 sorry but a property that is left in that condition trying to be rented for that much money with a homeless person living in the back addition means the landlord is not checking on his property. No updates. I will call it what it is. My standards are apparently much different than yours. Not a landlord I would ever rent from.
I used tovwork in Tempe too. The homeless overrun the bus stops and my coworker got assaulted on her smoke break by a homeless man. Another coworker who lived by Mill Ave came outside to her backyard to find a homeless woman talking to herself and doing my coworkers laundry
The way you are talking you look too me like you are the only person left on planet earth I just get that kind of vibe from you it seem like theirs not anybody left in this world I'm getting that vibe. Keep up the good work
So funny to hear you say 70 is cold. When it hits 70 here in Hawaii we are freezing. I like the size of that yard and I actually like the older floorplans instead of the new open kind. Hey Super can you find me a short term, furnished, pet friendly 2 bedroom for a month in mid January. Probably not, but how are the apartment hotels in Casa Grande?
Does the homeless tenant come with the lease? I'm not sure how they handle squatters in Tempe. But, in many cases it will take going through a court process to get them evicted. You may have just put the owners on notice after discovering someone is squatting in that shed. And, they may have to start the legal procedures in order to get that place rented.
This is disturbing. I saw that open fence along the alley and it made perfect sense some squatter would be in there …somewhere. Shame on the slumlord for not taking better care of the backyard! It would be a great backyard! I feel like Valley Fever would be your next test of faith, inhaling that dusty yard… I give this a big fat pass, Big Super! Love ya
Valley Fever is a fungal spore that is always in the air here. So, it really matters not. But many people don't care for the yards & trash homes. Thus why not much put into it.
Looks alot like my old home in Maryvale Phoenix. Seen alot that brings back memories. No lights in closets , no bathroom ventilation, the backyard is the same. Lots of room in backyard for dogs to play and security. I would add outside lights, again for security. . Renter's seem to not water anything so this is what it looks like. It is better than my old home , hope you get a renter.
Wow for that price the homeless guy would be my groundskeeper. I don’t mind the gravel, but would add more xeriscape as it’s more eco friendly and less to maintain.
Uh, absolutely not. Not $2500 for a 1985 built home. What is wrong with these greedy homeowners trying to make a huge profit off of us. Somebody please tell me that it won't always be like this!😫
No, it won't because once they figure out that we ain't gonna be paying these crazy 😜 ass prices for sale and rentals and they're still on the market after a year they'll start dropping prices.
Sadly, rental housing prices have skyrocketed. My daughter pays $1100 for a studio in Mesa. Anything we looked at under that price was in a bad neighborhood or totally nasty.
Been at the same apartments for 2 yrs now and I wanted to move. Instead, I had to move 2 doors down because that was the most reasonable deal I could get. Just when I got a job that would normally be good in a cheaper city, all the prices skyrocketed for everything. It's just ridiculous.
Heeeyyyy! That’s my neighborhood. And yes… we have a big houseless population and a bad drug problem. Any house vacant in my hood is 90% sure to have a houseless person staying inside of it.
I loved in Tempe for almost five years now I live in Scottsdale. You are right about ASU, liquor stores, catering to college kids. Tempe is one big college area. I like tempe, but I also hate it.
Nice guy you are ,thanks for showing our state ,ppl don't know is our cities all blend together unless going up north ,so there's phx and all these small towns surround phx ,but in phx some kind of a shopping mall on every major cross road corner, I love my state !
WHAT? 2,500? Hell no. We're leaving the state soon and renting in Surprise. MUCH nicer and 50+ years newer. $1,500. 4 bed/2 full bath, 2,200 sf., but probably 50 miles NW of Tempe. Interesting video. Great genre. 👍
My grandmother moved into a senior citizen condo in Florida 15 years ago....It looked exactly like this and it was NOT new. so upgrades sorely needed. At least it seems clean..
Not a bad deal split 4 ways with roommates. I grew up in Tempe and now reside in Prescott Az. Where the rent for an apartment is $650 - $1800 mo. Fortunately I own my place in the pines
I just can’t comprehend these prices. No income going up rn, inflation at what 7%? And housing up 30% pushing rent up like crazy. I’m not an economist but this won’t work for long. These investors best get what they can now I guess. I can afford to absorb these prices but I’m not doing it. I’m not in the business of working to make other people rich 🤣🤣 so I’m refusing my lease in ahwatukee and downsizing AGAIN. Hell my next downsize will be a camper and I’m cool with that. Carry my ass to a state with some ocean views where living in a van is cool. If people would stop paying these prices these landlords would go jack prices somewhere else. It makes me sick they are ruining the valley.
I think it is decent,. Clean,. newer appliances have been installed,,,. Fans, 3-4 sharing cost! (Toss out moron in back, 🔒 secure it) perfectly liveable !!!👍♥️☺️
I’m so thankful you didn’t meet a fist when you opened that storage room door. Yikes! I think it gives the house more personality when the bedrooms sizes are different. Hmm.. I’m thinking it was built in the latter 60’s or early 70’s. It has one too many bathrooms for a house built in the 50’s.
Seriously Tempe was overpriced when Arizona was cheap for what you would get. I remember we looked at several places in Tempe but they were small, some updated but for the price and living around a bunch of students I wasn't feeling it, but I love Tempe Marketplace
Popcorn ceilings were big here in the 60’s-70’s. The front area is called a courtyard. Then you have the living room and the family room off the kitchen. I’d use the smaller bedroom for a den. Not too bad.
Oh snap you were in my neighborhood area. It’s a nice spot great access to a lot of areas from there. Yes one problem I can say a lot of homeless in the alley areas at times depending on weather.
Big super! For all you know that homeless dude was hiding on the right side of that door. Or he was probably there when you arrived and jumped over the wall when he heard you. What the hell is up with the wall being that low anyway? Pretty weird!
10 years ago when I moved to Phoenix rent was $600.00 a month. That really puts things in perspective. The transplants from liberal States are causing prices to skyrocket. Everyone is getting forced out of their homes in favor of the out of State transplants who can pay more. This is forcing most working class people into hotels or onto the street.
Not a bad rental clean older home but 4 that price U can go rent something modern. Do not like the back of the house the yarn & fence is dirty & the back of the house is old looking. Also that shed needs a lock on the door possibly can be used for laundry.😀
Not diggin the gravel. I'll definitely be moving to Gilbert or Chandler. Pushing towards Chandler for the city suburban mix life! Make me feel cozy when I see it.
I owned a 1950s type home when I lived on the Far East side on Indianapolis back in the day. Those are the original cabinets. The door you wondered if a hot water heater would go there was probably for the furnace. My hot water heater was in my laundry room. I saw the hot water heater for this home in the backyard shed. I was put off with this home from jump. So I have no idea where they put a heat pump. I am assuming they went that route when they gutted the home. Or half axe gutted the home. There is no way I could back up my jeep under that carport and life the gate. It would do better with my old Toyota corella from the early 2000s. The family room off the kitchen was thrown together. I am sure the flooring was whatever they had left over or the cheapest. That tile should have been taken out to the family room. The backyard was alright. I had creepy vibes. Honestly if I was touring the house. The backyard would have been the deal breaker. It was creepy. The alley made me say oh no. Whatever is going on not good. The shed. I would have never worried about all that. Because the minute I stepped foot in the backyard it would have been the deal breaker.
Fellow Hoosier here! I don’t get it people still snatching up these dumps for premium prices!? Like there ain’t 49 other states in this country. When I moved here 11 years ago I rented a HUGE home in Ahwatukee - beautiful neighborhood for 1k a month. Rent has been reasonable until this year. When my older boys moved out we downsized from a 4 bdrm BIG home to a 2bdrm apt same area. Now these people want me to sign a lease with a 15% rent increase 😳 hot tub doesn’t work. Pool not heated. Gym fits about three people. AND they want me to sign by the 16th of this month when my lease isn’t up til Feb 24. But check this - renting month to month? $2500 a month 🤣🤣🤣🤣 f word please. I don’t even see how what these people are doing is legal. Told me if I don’t sign by the 16th my rent going up 2% and maybe 2% a week after that. BYE FELICIA!! 👋 We got a one bedroom tiny apt in an older part of ahwatukee for half of what they wanted here. This is what being priced out looks and feels like. I feel bullied and threatened and definitely unappreciated as a very good tenant. My next move is a house on wheels. The hardest part is I have an 11 year old baby girl who has been raised in this area and this move will take her life for a spin. Mama will be ok. I can work anywhere in any state. I’m a medical professional and not a low earner so I’m really confused as to how less fortunate people are making this work. I have lived a great life in Phoenix as a single mom with three kids for 11 years. No major pay raises. Still able to vacay and save. Not anymore. I’m gonna sit back and watch for a minute longer and see if things correct but if not we gotta go. If I’m gonna pay premium rent like this I’m gonna get premium water views on the other side of the country. BIG SUPER!!! I love your channel. You got to get over here to ahwatukee and find out what’s up. Who is pushing up these rent prices? They say California people but I’m not seeing that and I work all over the valley in all settings. Anyway keep up the good work and Indiana sunshine I got the same vibes about the yard. The homeless person in the shed was the best finale!! Peace and love my friends 💕💕💕
If someone is down on their luck and living in the shed, hopefully, that person will see better times in the future. $2500 is reasonable in Tempe nowadays. But ummm. Excellent home tour. I really appreciate it. It's kinda unexpected to see someone living in the shed. Stay safe out there Mr. Big Super Living in Arizona.
I’ve lived in Tempe for 6 1/2 years now…love the “safeness & cleanliness” of the city. Didn’t really realize the “Homeless” population but that could be because I come from Northern CA (Bay Area) which seeing/knowing “Homeless Folk” is very very common. Can you do Casa Grande/San Tan/Queen Creek…heard of those cities but have no clue what they’re about. Thanks again!
I've been living in Tempe 11 yrs now same place moved into a senior park at age 41. I was considering selling n moving out a few yrs ago but when I seen the same apartment s I looked at 11 yrs ago @$750 amonth was then $1400 a month I didn't even bother to look at houses. I stayed where I am. 730.00 a month for lot space. Yeah you have to buy a place in the park, but it's much nicer than an appointment building n there is a sense of community here. Just sucks if you fail to pay lot rent no difference as renting, you get evicted by the end of the month in court n given up to 3 days to vacate your home.If you can't pay the back rent late fees n stay current w lot rent after being evicted, you are not allowed to sell your property so Basically the park takes ownership of your trailer n makes thousands selling your home you own n only owe them less than $800& you get $0.Crazy. Inflation in rents are mostly due to so many of us relocating here to AZ it's outragious
It's getting crazy here...... we've reached California insanity on everything. Real estate prices, food prices, homelessness, traffic congestion, sales tax, crime rate and gasoline prices keep going up almost every day. Elections have consequences.
this shit they are doing to the rental population is ridiculous. We have been searching and searching, I have never seen shit like this my whole life living here cause when you buy a house you expect a bidding war its normal however when renting you are suppose to be able to just go in see the apt put an app then deposit however its completely different now they are doing bidding wars on apartments now too its fucken ridiculous!!! All that is going to happen is the homeless population is going to grow.
Owner is smoking something funky.. The condition of the house in most is decent but as you said out dated and needing upgrades. $2,500 is nuts.. That condition as it sits a fair rent of $1,050 - $1.175 tops.
I have more vlogs on my other Channel. It's not an Arizona Channel although many of the vlogs take place in Arizona... and other places too! th-cam.com/video/SmTVRuyREAg/w-d-xo.html
Well how much is the rent there this is really cheap as it can be all the way through!!

It's INSANE, I wouldn't pay them and live in a condemned trailer home.But you are SO right! That's EXACTLY HOW the rich stay rich!
@@freenchrist2935 I moved to Texas in 2012. Long story, this is the short version.
I thought I would have a place to stay. That didn't happen. A woman in the small town I was in owns almost the entire town. When I first got there, she gave me her business card, told me to call her if I needed anything. I called her to see if she had any vacant properties.
The only one she had was a run-down trailer. She had been housing migrant construction workers for a few years. It was only $300. per month. She was willing to trust me to give her a $100. security deposit when I got paid again. She also allowed me to have my 2 trained, clean, well-behaved Yorkies.
OMG!
It smelled like beer, vomit & a few other gross things. I was cleaning it for 2 weeks before the stench was gone. I lived there for 6 months before I was financially able to move closer to where I was working.
Although it was in much better condition, I did some touch up paint, fixed 2 ceiling fans. I was so broke I couldn't afford to pay attention.
When I moved out she wouldn't give my security deposit back. She told me that she had to fumigate because I had 2 little dogs.
I went to the trailer 2 weeks after moving out as the new tenants had some of my pony express mail.
The tenants told me that the landlady had told them that I had improved it so much & my dogs were so clean that she didn't need to fumigate.
mm hm
I had to let it go, it pissed me off, yet, I just had to move forward.
I'm very fortunate to have moved into a cottage that was newly remodeled, really good landlords who live next door & are quick to fix anything that breaks, though that has only happened twice in the 6 years I have lived here.
These people didn't know me. The fact that I'm a military vet really helped. It's only $600. per month for a 2 BR, 1 large BA, large opened floor plan for kitchen, living room, dining area. It also has a walled in front porch, 3 covered places for parking.
I'm very grateful the landlords trusted me. I feel very fortunate.
@@plusultra234 My concern is for all those young families. Many still live at home because of these ridiculous rents. Homes are becoming unattainable and having an entire population that rents will only hurt the communities because they'll never be able to build equity. Both my kids (one is 30 and one is 26) can't afford to buy a home, and rents won't let them save for a down payment... I'm scared for them.. for all of you. I wish we could fix this.

@@carmelcuteceevlee1411 don’t move to Tempe. Go to Scottsdale or chandler
Growing up in South Phoenix i see all of Tempe as "nice" it's just a matter of perspective. Tempe mesa all that shit is beautiful.
That rental price is absolutely outrageous for this extremely outdated home.
Also the street is cracked, the surrounding homes are creepy as hell looking.
@@aliniblett4287 Overstood...I'm in Houston,TX and it's always been pretty affordable here, now prices are continuously rising on everything, especially rent and home ownership. Honestly, it's getting kind of scary for us Texans.
@@screwed4life_4thward funny we lived in the Phoenix area for years and we loved it, but moved to Texas from Arizona in 2017. The pandemic made the Phoenix area and most of Texas expensive as all heck its so frustrating. To buy a house I'll need to go back to work and my husband makes good money but what's out her for what we originally wanted to spend is horrible we live in the DFW
People greedy man
It's because mommy & daddy will pay their child's rent while they go to ASU.
Seen it A LOT!
Wow, that homeless person was pretty smart to be squatting in that little room out back!
It was a great find for them. Electric on... small heater. Better than outside.
I'm an inspector....that whole house is making me drool!!! too many red flags regardless of the square footage .....
This tour took me back. I grew up in Tempe on Rural and Southern. I had a few friends that lived in this same layout. All the cabinets and doors are like 40 years old minimum. Lol
I grew up in a house with a carport just like that, you can fit a big, tall truck in the carport no problem. There might only be a few inches of clearance but it will fit. That closet in the hallway is where they used to put the heating furnace and hot water tank back then. In this case the house was retrofitted with a new system and it's probably up in the attic now. That's the reason for the plug and the holes in the top. Lastly, those houses were built in the early 60's.
I love old school homes it could use a little upgrade and some grass, but I prefer old school than new school. New homes you can't even open your curtain cause you looking right at the neighbors window😅 and older you have more space and privacy. We appreciate ya Big Super ya gotta love AZ💛 😊😎 The prices are outrages though!
I love it when the bougainvillias spill over the block walls. They're beautiful and break up the never ending grey walls. 😀
Wow! I shared a home with two roommates and it had this exact floor plan. 4 br and 2 baths, pebble tec pool, I had bedroom #3. It was between Broadway & University and Priest & Hardy but it looked better and in 2005 it was 1350 a month. I enjoyed Tempe very much. Thanks for everything you show us and bringing back some memories!
2 years ago I lived in a 5 bed/2 & 1/2 bath (no tubs), in South Scottsdale for $1200/month.
It was a great find & I was there for about 5 years I think, but still, outrageous prices now.
When I saw the alley way I was nope, nope, nope. Murders, dead bodies and people watching my house while I slept came to mind. Then there's a homeless person sleeping in the shed attached to the house?!? Oh HELL no!! And $2500 for the privilege? Uh-huh.
I agree about the alleyway. In my neighborhood they gated them off. Only the fire departments, city workers, and homeowners have keys to gain access.
@@hs5167 the meth zombies will be inside the gate in no time
@@rotomoto8416 🤣 Well they must be slow moving because it has been over 6 years and no Meth zombies. I think the light rail, circle k, and ambulances keep them distracted…

Phoenix local here, one of the worst parts about Tempe is the rising opioid issue visibly seen on the streets especially after dark.
After dark? it's all day over here on Apache
For real there’s a bus stop right on University that stay jumpin 24/7/365
Yeah Tempe is sketchy AF. I used to work in Tempe right in the heart of the downtown area on Mill and there are so many homeless people on drugs. One of my coworkers actually got assaulted by a homeless man on her smoke break. He went to jail for a few weeks then was right back on the same corner
Omg lol the way you were so calm about it!
The fact that someone is living in that shed..🥴 that's a hard PASS!
What, you don't want a free roommate??
@@JenniferKaelber3 Hell to the nah!
I like how you walk around the neighborhood first and show the whole area. This part of town is old now but the alleys are clean and the homes kept up. You could make this a good family home again like it used to be. Prices are so high nowadays who can afford it though. Thx for the great showing! 👍
I agree I have the same home with a much larger kitchen and huge yard with 25 ft pool need to sell but apartments are way too expensive I’m a senior and caregiver for my disabled daughter 😢
@@eileendoherty2836 Good news is that you can get a good price selling these days. My brother bought a nice mobile home in a senior park inexpensively. Don't know if that's an option for you but it's an idea....
CONGRATULATIONS TO PHOENIX, for finally catching up with California's prices on rent. It would take me renting out the rooms in this BEAUTIFUL house to 3 full time employees just to pay the rent and utilities.We still would be out of 900 a month EACH, just to cover rent and utilities NOT including food. Ya, it's NOW getting down to the nitty gritty. I don't care HOW much they want. BUY your own! The ONLY way to be free is for some unforeseen hidden devine intervention. These landlords in Phoenix are out for BLOOD, off the SWEAT of your brow!
if this house was for sale it would be about $400,000
@@davidmercer5561
And WHO ever would pay that much, for THAT house, is def, blind, and dumb!!!
Everything we see is being created by the government.
@@davidmercer5561
I would ALSO rather pay on something I will eventually own. I could NEVER see myself paying 2500 a month, towards someone else's realestate.
It’s because California is moving to phoenix
I just inherited a house on E. Balboa in Tempe and it will be going up for sale by the end of the year. It is a rental with a pool. It was nice for you to show this area.
Nice 👍🏾
@brenda why the wait?
To bad u didnt want ro rent it out :/
I almost always have a comment. When I first moved to AZ I stayed at studio 6 for a few months. Lots of action over there. 😳 that was 13 years ago. After seeing that a person was in that shed I am done! My first concern is safety. Second is price. At this rate I may never get back to Phoenix. 6 months still searching for affordable safe housing. Thanks for all that you do.
“Someone’s living in here bruh” lmfao 😂
VERY similar to my first house in Scottsdale. Early/mid-1960s build. Good bones but I basically gutted mine in the remodel -- in 1988! This place is still an antique 🙄
I like the Formal Bedroom suggestion. Keep an eye on stuff at 4am. Security wise. Old School grill counter top. I can see the screens/TV while I'm cooking, hells ya'. Homeless person may be be a welcome to loneliness. $2500 and utilities with a desert for a yard(had one, awful). I would run.
This place could be yours for just $2500/month and comes with a free roommate
this is crazy I actually rent in this neighborhood, its fairly nice its a great location near grocery stores. we've been having problems of people going through our trash and recycling as well. It was so crazy seeing your video and realizing I live almost right down the street.
I like how you walk through the home - it's so much easier to get the real feel of a place. Mesa is still the best value for the money though the neighborhoods are hit or miss (so is Tempe tho). 1600 square feet isn't enough space to accommodate 4 bedrooms. See that a lot in Tempe - squeezing in bedrooms to accommodate college renters.
Big Super! I'm a big fan of the channel. Keep up the great work man!
I live in this neighborhood! I love it. My friend owns the house so he's renting me a room well below what the market price is. Our place was built In 1969. I think most of the houses in the hood were built in the 70's. We are right off Mcclintock road. To me the location is perfect. It takes me 1 minute to get on the 60. Half a mile from my bank, grocery store, resturants and a goodwill. It's far enough away from ASU that you miss out on most of the noise, but still close enough that Mill Ave. Is a cab ride away if that's you're thing. The neighbors have all been good. Worst ive had to deal with is a few college parties. My friend first had an issue with someone stealing from the house when he first moved in and there was still a for sale sign up but since he took the sign down we haven't had any issues. My buddy bought the place for a little over 300,000 about two years ago and Zillow has it estimated at over 500,000 right now for a 3 bedroom 2 bath. I think about 1700 square feet. Like I said I love the area and the neighborhood and having a good size yard with no HOA. I'm very blessed to be in the living situation I'm in. Hope you have a good one and keep it real as always.
I’m looking to relocate to Arizona in March. My daughter lives in Tempe now .. I love this rental home . I’m grateful to have found this channel ..
Are we looking at the same video/house? This is 🥴🥴….to each it’s own though🤣🤣🤣
For those in Arizona, I haven't seen this much in the backyards Big Super has featured: instead of spreading gravel, install decomposed granite with a stabilizer. It's low maintenance and will make the space usable. Another option would be to install decomposed granite or roadbase and overlay it with 1/2 inch of pea gravel. I don't know why landlords want to cheap out and then charge top dollar. 🤦♀️
Because many TRASH homes. My gf parents use to have a few rentals in Tucson. OH the nightmares. It was bad.
Crazy 😧 o
No way would I pay $2500 for that. These flip and lease companies like Invitation Homes are ruining our neighborhoods. The turn over rate becomes high because people can't afford it.
The extra closet at around 8:40 is where the gas furnace used to be. I have a 2'x2' grow tent in mine for indoor gardening. 😁
I grew up in Iowa in a resort area called Okoboji Iowa. My dad farmed and my mom had a residential and commercial cleaning service so I've seen about everything. In that bathroom on the ceiling, that is the beginning of mold.
I'm enjoying the content enjoying the house and apartment tours thank you so much for giving your view on this style of living👍👍💯💯
Love the energy you put on man! Chill video and you seem like a cool dude so I liked and subscribed
Thanks and welcome
Tempe is my neck of the woods buddy. First video I watched of yours you were rollerblading and ended up around the town lake. Appreciate your videos dude!
Very cool! That was back in the day vid!
Good vlog. I came from the east valley..love the tempe area just unreasonable prices now. 🤔
It was nice of you to show empathy, even tho they are homeless, it dies get cold at night here in AZ. Blessed be to you. I enjoyed ur video.
The back shed room must be where you have a washer and dryer I would think. Unless college kids go to their parents house maybe? See if you can tour the ultra modern houses they’re building in our area. South side of Lookout Mountain called Paradigm by Camelot Homes. Futuristic modern design
Having lived in the Midwest (MN), I’m always surprised at the lack of storage in the houses in AZ.
We don't have to store winter gear here!! Just Christmas lights.
My husband used to work in Tempe. There was a homeless camp that was set up right on the street when turning into his work . There was a guy out in a chair that would sleep out there non stop. He was out there for days sleeping away . Well, he was actually dead. It was like 120 out too. That house was scary. You can tell the landlord would be more of a slumlord with that place. He doesn’t even know about the tenant he already has 🧐.
if it was a slumlord their would holes in the wall and nothing working like ceiling fans it just a older property educate yourself what a true slumlord is
@@desertmoonlight2880 sorry but a property that is left in that condition trying to be rented for that much money with a homeless person living in the back addition means the landlord is not checking on his property. No updates. I will call it what it is. My standards are apparently much different than yours. Not a landlord I would ever rent from.
I used tovwork in Tempe too. The homeless overrun the bus stops and my coworker got assaulted on her smoke break by a homeless man. Another coworker who lived by Mill Ave came outside to her backyard to find a homeless woman talking to herself and doing my coworkers laundry
When you said 2 on the price my mouth dropped then you added a 5 I'm like how. Crazy price.
Lol... Just kept going up
Yes this place needs to be updated, but you know if they do that they will raise the rent up as well.
Facts!
The way you are talking you look too me like you are the only person left on planet earth I just get that kind of vibe from you it seem like theirs not anybody left in this world I'm getting that vibe. Keep up the good work
So funny to hear you say 70 is cold. When it hits 70 here in Hawaii we are freezing. I like the size of that yard and I actually like the older floorplans instead of the new open kind. Hey Super can you find me a short term, furnished, pet friendly 2 bedroom for a month in mid January. Probably not, but how are the apartment hotels in Casa Grande?
Does the homeless tenant come with the lease? I'm not sure how they handle squatters in Tempe. But, in many cases it will take going through a court process to get them evicted. You may have just put the owners on notice after discovering someone is squatting in that shed. And, they may have to start the legal procedures in order to get that place rented.
This is disturbing. I saw that open fence along the alley and it made perfect sense some squatter would be in there …somewhere. Shame on the slumlord for not taking better care of the backyard! It would be a great backyard! I feel like Valley Fever would be your next test of faith, inhaling that dusty yard…
I give this a big fat pass, Big Super! Love ya
Valley Fever is a fungal spore that is always in the air here. So, it really matters not. But many people don't care for the yards & trash homes. Thus why not much put into it.
Looks alot like my old home in Maryvale Phoenix. Seen alot that brings back memories. No lights in closets , no bathroom ventilation, the backyard is the same. Lots of room in backyard for dogs to play and security. I would add outside lights, again for security. . Renter's seem to not water anything so this is what it looks like. It is better than my old home , hope you get a renter.
Luv video and how you keep it real....
Wow for that price the homeless guy would be my groundskeeper. I don’t mind the gravel, but would add more xeriscape as it’s more eco friendly and less to maintain.
Who in the heck is going to rent a place that comes with its very own vagabond…. NOBODY * Keith Sweat voice *
Lol
Lol
Nice use of the word vagabond🤓
😂 man this is a red flag got homeless living out back
Uh, absolutely not. Not $2500 for a 1985 built home. What is wrong with these greedy homeowners trying to make a huge profit off of us. Somebody please tell me that it won't always be like this!😫
No, it won't because once they figure out that we ain't gonna be paying these crazy 😜 ass prices for sale and rentals and they're still on the market after a year they'll start dropping prices.
Sadly, rental housing prices have skyrocketed. My daughter pays $1100 for a studio in Mesa. Anything we looked at under that price was in a bad neighborhood or totally nasty.
Built in the 1960’s.
My son pays 1700 plus utilities for a one bedroom in Goodyear. So expensive!
Been at the same apartments for 2 yrs now and I wanted to move. Instead, I had to move 2 doors down because that was the most reasonable deal I could get. Just when I got a job that would normally be good in a cheaper city, all the prices skyrocketed for everything. It's just ridiculous.
My parents lived over near McClintock and Guadalupe for almost 30 years. Not far from where you're at in the video. I appreciate you man! 🤙🏽🙏🏽
Right on
That’s not a squatter btw. This rental comes with a live in security guard! 🤣
The hall closet that looked like it was for a furnace or water heater the item on the wall is the transformer for the doorbell.
I like it..if I ever decide to move to Arizona, I'll look you up.😇😇
Heeeyyyy! That’s my neighborhood. And yes… we have a big houseless population and a bad drug problem. Any house vacant in my hood is 90% sure to have a houseless person staying inside of it.
People are out of their fucking minds!! So glad I bought my own place BEFORE people got to be sooooooo greedy!!
Cool vidio👍. Would love to see some stuff on Yuma if you ever get down that way.
Oh hell! That price is ridiculous! Love your content 🤗
I loved how you gave information of the neighborhood and surrounding area.
I loved in Tempe for almost five years now I live in Scottsdale. You are right about ASU, liquor stores, catering to college kids. Tempe is one big college area. I like tempe, but I also hate it.
Nice guy you are ,thanks for showing our state ,ppl don't know is our cities all blend together unless going up north ,so there's phx and all these small towns surround phx ,but in phx some kind of a shopping mall on every major cross road corner, I love my state !
You are in my old stomping grounds. We had lived there fro 8 years on Baseline and Hardy. Now we live in Minneapolis and want to go back to Tempe.
Hi big super I love Tempe az I was there in 2018 love ❤️ it
It's just Bubbles from Trailer Park Boys living in the shed with his kitties!! 🤣😂🤣
I wish it was. I'd be all over Bubbles soon as I seen the glasses! lol
WHAT? 2,500? Hell no. We're leaving the state soon and renting in Surprise. MUCH nicer and 50+ years newer. $1,500. 4 bed/2 full bath, 2,200 sf., but probably 50 miles NW of Tempe. Interesting video. Great genre. 👍

It's only worth $1400 month they are gouging the locals for the last 2 years here in the valley with all the people moving here from other states.
Cheap is not always cheap sometimes comes with a bigger pricetag than expected. Who does maintence? Such as plumbing upkeep and so on so forth.
Not a bad deal split 4 ways with roommates. I grew up in Tempe and now reside in Prescott Az. Where the rent for an apartment is $650 - $1800 mo. Fortunately I own my place in the pines

I just can’t comprehend these prices. No income going up rn, inflation at what 7%? And housing up 30% pushing rent up like crazy. I’m not an economist but this won’t work for long. These investors best get what they can now I guess. I can afford to absorb these prices but I’m not doing it. I’m not in the business of working to make other people rich 🤣🤣 so I’m refusing my lease in ahwatukee and downsizing AGAIN. Hell my next downsize will be a camper and I’m cool with that. Carry my ass to a state with some ocean views where living in a van is cool. If people would stop paying these prices these landlords would go jack prices somewhere else. It makes me sick they are ruining the valley.
I think it is decent,. Clean,. newer appliances have been installed,,,. Fans, 3-4 sharing cost! (Toss out moron in back, 🔒 secure it) perfectly liveable !!!👍♥️☺️
I’m so thankful you didn’t meet a fist when you opened that storage room door. Yikes!
I think it gives the house more personality when the bedrooms sizes are different.
Hmm.. I’m thinking it was built in the latter 60’s or early 70’s. It has one too many bathrooms for a house built in the 50’s.
I used to live at Eastridge apartments literally right down the street! Tempe is cool but also overpriced because the university.
Seriously Tempe was overpriced when Arizona was cheap for what you would get. I remember we looked at several places in Tempe but they were small, some updated but for the price and living around a bunch of students I wasn't feeling it, but I love Tempe Marketplace

Everything is descent. But 2500 for no updates? I would have to say no or ask for cheaper price. Good video. Thx for sharing/helping us all 👊
Popcorn ceilings were big here in the 60’s-70’s. The front area is called a courtyard. Then you have the living room and the family room off the kitchen. I’d use the smaller bedroom for a den. Not too bad.
Built in roommate.. what they got on the rent👀😂 Another great video fam🎉
Right!!
Oh snap you were in my neighborhood area. It’s a nice spot great access to a lot of areas from there. Yes one problem I can say a lot of homeless in the alley areas at times depending on weather.
I'm astounded Big Super, 2,500 😱 toooo much!!
Big super! For all you know that homeless dude was hiding on the right side of that door. Or he was probably there when you arrived and jumped over the wall when he heard you. What the hell is up with the wall being that low anyway? Pretty weird!
Big Facts.
10 years ago when I moved to Phoenix rent was $600.00 a month. That really puts things in perspective. The transplants from liberal States are causing prices to skyrocket. Everyone is getting forced out of their homes in favor of the out of State transplants who can pay more. This is forcing most working class people into hotels or onto the street.
Not a bad rental clean older home but 4 that price U can go rent something modern. Do not like the back of the house the yarn & fence is dirty & the back of the house is old looking. Also that shed needs a lock on the door possibly can be used for laundry.😀
Not diggin the gravel. I'll definitely be moving to Gilbert or Chandler. Pushing towards Chandler for the city suburban mix life! Make me feel cozy when I see it.
Gravel is useful to hear if anyone is creeping at your window
@@coffeepandacat which is all the more reason not to live in an area like that!
very nice video dude!
I owned a 1950s type home when I lived on the Far East side on Indianapolis back in the day. Those are the original cabinets. The door you wondered if a hot water heater would go there was probably for the furnace. My hot water heater was in my laundry room. I saw the hot water heater for this home in the backyard shed. I was put off with this home from jump. So I have no idea where they put a heat pump. I am assuming they went that route when they gutted the home. Or half axe gutted the home. There is no way I could back up my jeep under that carport and life the gate. It would do better with my old Toyota corella from the early 2000s. The family room off the kitchen was thrown together. I am sure the flooring was whatever they had left over or the cheapest. That tile should have been taken out to the family room. The backyard was alright. I had creepy vibes. Honestly if I was touring the house. The backyard would have been the deal breaker. It was creepy. The alley made me say oh no. Whatever is going on not good. The shed. I would have never worried about all that. Because the minute I stepped foot in the backyard it would have been the deal breaker.
All great points. Alot can/is going on out back...
Fellow Hoosier here! I don’t get it people still snatching up these dumps for premium prices!? Like there ain’t 49 other states in this country. When I moved here 11 years ago I rented a HUGE home in Ahwatukee - beautiful neighborhood for 1k a month. Rent has been reasonable until this year. When my older boys moved out we downsized from a 4 bdrm BIG home to a 2bdrm apt same area. Now these people want me to sign a lease with a 15% rent increase 😳 hot tub doesn’t work. Pool not heated. Gym fits about three people. AND they want me to sign by the 16th of this month when my lease isn’t up til Feb 24. But check this - renting month to month? $2500 a month 🤣🤣🤣🤣 f word please. I don’t even see how what these people are doing is legal. Told me if I don’t sign by the 16th my rent going up 2% and maybe 2% a week after that. BYE FELICIA!! 👋 We got a one bedroom tiny apt in an older part of ahwatukee for half of what they wanted here. This is what being priced out looks and feels like. I feel bullied and threatened and definitely unappreciated as a very good tenant. My next move is a house on wheels. The hardest part is I have an 11 year old baby girl who has been raised in this area and this move will take her life for a spin. Mama will be ok. I can work anywhere in any state. I’m a medical professional and not a low earner so I’m really confused as to how less fortunate people are making this work. I have lived a great life in Phoenix as a single mom with three kids for 11 years. No major pay raises. Still able to vacay and save. Not anymore. I’m gonna sit back and watch for a minute longer and see if things correct but if not we gotta go. If I’m gonna pay premium rent like this I’m gonna get premium water views on the other side of the country. BIG SUPER!!! I love your channel. You got to get over here to ahwatukee and find out what’s up. Who is pushing up these rent prices? They say California people but I’m not seeing that and I work all over the valley in all settings. Anyway keep up the good work and Indiana sunshine I got the same vibes about the yard. The homeless person in the shed was the best finale!! Peace and love my friends 💕💕💕

$2500 is reasonable in Tempe nowadays. But ummm.
Excellent home tour. I really appreciate it.
It's kinda unexpected to see someone living in the shed. Stay safe out there Mr. Big Super Living in Arizona.
I agree about the 70 degree thing . My friends up north laugh at me, they are snowed in.YUK
I’ve lived in Tempe for 6 1/2 years now…love the “safeness & cleanliness” of the city. Didn’t really realize the “Homeless” population but that could be because I come from Northern CA (Bay Area) which seeing/knowing “Homeless Folk” is very very common. Can you do Casa Grande/San Tan/Queen Creek…heard of those cities but have no clue what they’re about. Thanks again!
I've been living in Tempe 11 yrs now same place moved into a senior park at age 41. I was considering selling n moving out a few yrs ago but when I seen the same apartment s I looked at 11 yrs ago @$750 amonth was then $1400 a month I didn't even bother to look at houses. I stayed where I am. 730.00 a month for lot space. Yeah you have to buy a place in the park, but it's much nicer than an appointment building n there is a sense of community here. Just sucks if you fail to pay lot rent no difference as renting, you get evicted by the end of the month in court n given up to 3 days to vacate your home.If you can't pay the back rent late fees n stay current w lot rent after being evicted, you are not allowed to sell your property so Basically the park takes ownership of your trailer n makes thousands selling your home you own n only owe them less than $800& you get $0.Crazy. Inflation in rents are mostly due to so many of us relocating here to AZ it's outragious
It's getting crazy here...... we've reached California insanity on everything. Real estate prices, food prices, homelessness, traffic congestion, sales tax, crime rate and gasoline prices keep going up almost every day. Elections have consequences.
The housing market is so scary right now . Any suggestions for 1st time home buyer programs ? Good neighborhoods ?
this shit they are doing to the rental population is ridiculous. We have been searching and searching, I have never seen shit like this my whole life living here cause when you buy a house you expect a bidding war its normal however when renting you are suppose to be able to just go in see the apt put an app then deposit however its completely different now they are doing bidding wars on apartments now too its fucken ridiculous!!! All that is going to happen is the homeless population is going to grow.
Owner is smoking something funky.. The condition of the house in most is decent but as you said out dated and needing upgrades. $2,500 is nuts.. That condition as it sits a fair rent of $1,050 - $1.175 tops.
I have a coworker who lives in tempe and she found a homeless lady in her backyard doing my coworkers laundry! Her washer and drier were outside
