Thank you for showing you cleaning before you organize your stuff. In other moving videos I never see them cleaning and it really bother me. I know in some apartment they clean it but I think it's better to clean again just to be safe.
Such a cute first apt with a bedroom! Living the dream! So exciting! I always clean my new apts no matter if they say it’s clean. Hopefully next apt you can clean before moving in so nothing is in the way.
When you can, watch Adriana Greaves vlogs. She has a studio apt close to Lincoln Center. Her apt is big for a studio, and she also sections out her areas.
Thank you ❤ Initially, I really thought this was the norm in the city (management does not clean prior to the move in). I think I should complain about this!!
I agree! I’m such a clean freak but also easily grossed out 😭 maybe hiring a cleaning company and sending the management the bill would have been my option lol
Super excited for you! Not all of the apartments are dirty. I moved to UES and the apartment was incredibly clean, also have never had problems in the entire building or maintenance. I just say this to give you hope that there are good landlords out there! Either way your apartment is looking amazing and congrats on this new chapter!
It’s okay to start over in your 30s. I am married and had my second kid at 35 and we up and moved states as well. Change can be positive no matter what stage in life ❤. Keep going girl!
Those floors look like they haven't been cleaned in years...I'm so sorry! When you get settled maybe consider getting your floor steamed. And you can always still get your apartment professionally cleaned lol good luck!
When I was mopping, I was shocked 😳 thank you so much! Once I settle in, I’ll most likely get it professionally cleaned. My friend Ashanti came to help me with deep cleaning (it’s part of the next vlog) 💖
There was food still in my kitchen pantry when I moved into my apartment in LIC. And there was so much grunge in my bathroom tub after I chloroxed it THREE times 🤢 Would def have paid for a cleaner in retrospect.
Hi!!! You’re doing a Great job!!! That’s so cool with the electronic door/camera!!! Definitely would feel a lot safer to me!!! I also can’t believe you are a day over 21! 💛
I think it depends on the Landlord and the Super. because When we move everything was spotless and it was my husband and I first apartment. But you did a good job cleaning it. the satisfaction after is great! I hope all good smoothly with your move. I will love to meet you and welcome you to the island :) We are neighbors even though I live in Uptown Manhattan. Best of luck :)
That fridge situation where I would consider using Task rabbit lol I would hire someone to come clean that out 😅 idk what I'm going to do when my boys move out later this year
My friend ended up helping me with the deep cleaning 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽 Lesson learned to set aside couple of days for cleaning before actually moving in. Good luck to you and your sons with the big move!
I think you can get rid of the sound from your radiator by ‘bleeding your radiator’! The sound comes from the air in your radiator wich isn’t suposed te be there, so you will need to ‘bleed out’ the air. There’s probably videos on youtube explaining how to do it! :)
Not them leaving all that junk under your fridge 😂 you definitely moved into a place that may not be the best, including the super, which sucks. (I’ve been living in nyc all my life, mainly the Bronx) most Supers+Landlords usually just paint over dirt, hire cheap workers, and do the bare minimum to spend less money on their part. I wouldn’t be surprised if you keep running into problems as time goes on. But there’s always a positive side to things, so I hope everything goes well from here on out ❤ I love your videos, I feel like they have a more realistic side to people moving here compared to other content creators who make it seem so great and easy. Also what moving company you used? Or did you ship everything over using what?
So disgusting 🤦🏻♀️ 😭. After that I was checking each and every corner of the apartment. Super has been responsive and very helpful. Can’t say the same about the management. Thank you so much ❤❤❤ yeah I really thought my move would be the same like other move in TH-cam videos (esp since this signified a fresh start and i think I romanticized about it too much prior to the move). I tried my best to document the experience. I used Vector Movers. This is my second time with them and they were really good!!!
I cannot believe you had all that cleaning to do and paying that kind of rent. You should be able to deduct at least $800 off. If they had to hire it done it might even be more. Your so positive. Its a cute place. ❤
I’ve been living in NYC all my life 55 years and I must say that your whole personality and characteristics is very positive considering the condition of that apartment. I am wondering if you viewed that apartment before moving in. I’m also wondering if you were so eager to move to NYC that you excepted anything. And secondly, every single appliance in that apartment should’ve been replaced before you move in. The electrical should’ve been checked and the smoke alarm should be replaced.. that stove and that fridge should not be your issue as far as cleaning because it should be new. Long story short your landlord is going to be an issue because clearly they don’t care about their tenants. They only care about renting their unit. For you to be paying 2350 you should not have to do anything in your apartment should be luxury . Don’t get too comfortable in there. There are other apartments in NYC for less than you’re paid with in a heck of a whole lot better condition I would check out this person’s video. (Cash Jordan), and reach out to him. I’ve been watching his videos for quite some time, and he knows where the good deals are. I strongly feel you’re being ripped off. Welcome to NYC.
Thank you so much ❤❤❤. Love watching his videos!! I viewed the apartment twice before applying for it. After touring 13 apartments, I thought the apartment was a good deal because of the storage space, 1 bedroom, big windows and high ceiling. I was definitely eager and had blinders on when I signed the lease. Initially, I just assumed that they would clean it prior to handing over the keys. When I got the keys, I noticed that they hadn't cleaned it...didn't think it would be a big deal. Just didn't realize how dirty the apartment was until I started to clean it. I wanted a NYC experience and I guess I got it 😅
@@TishaShrestha don’t stop there for that cost 2300 you can get some thing a heck of a lot better and much cheaper. Reach out to that guy “cash Jordan” he shows good deals daily find a real estate agent. I really feel you’re getting ripped off you really are.
You did good. Most supers in NYC are slumlords. It’s a cruel, hard fact. Yes, you can get something cheaper and more modern, but it’s either further out or in an unsafe area. Lessons learned for the next apartment.
But why did you proceed with cleaning it yourself? They can't break your lease at this point and it seems they do need to clean cause the cleaning fee is deducted from the previous tenant's deposit, right?
Sorry to see ur experience. May b they have taken this advantage seeing u single woman. We live in Manhattan, too, all the apartments they handover in clean condition. But there are some border areas around Manhattan where these kind of experiences in expected however u haven't specified ur locality n street number.
Thank you so much ❤️ I didn't disclose the area for privacy but it is in a prime location (love the neighborhood!!). I guess I just got unlucky the first time around. Regardless of all the issues, I still really like the apartment and really hope it is smooth moving forward🤞. Which border areas are you referring to? Just want to keep a note of it for next time around.
@Tisha Shrestha can u share ur insta id I can ping u there if u want. Actually many viewers can get offence if I mention specific neighborhoods here 😮💨 . Since Manhattan is too costly people are bound to choose certain areas for affordable prices. Still prices are always too expensive in terms of quality n services.
Are you able to get a partial rent refund for having to clean it yourself? You have the photos and videos for receipts? Good luck with your NYC living!
Thank you so much ❤️ I haven’t tried it. Initially, I thought this is the norm (management doesn’t clean before the move in nyc). Plus after this I had really low expectation as well. Maybe I should try it!!
please get an actual mop and bleach down the entire area (including toilet seat, touch surface areas, etc.) the place looks filthy!! I’m so happy you got to move, I hope one day I do the same!!
Please buy a real mop and bleach and clean again! I hate that you had to struggle to get it clean. I’d rather you not get sick from anything you’ve uncovered by cleaning with the pads. ❤Positive vibes for a smooth 14 months and positive energy for a healthy year! ❤
Bleach will disinfect but doesn’t actually clean. Need a good soap to go with the mop and bucket. Those swiffer cleaning pads & Clorox wipes are for touch-ups, not a full cleaning job. Not that this will help Tisha, but for anyone else who sees this.
You have kept pretty calm in the face of all that organization and cleaning. I liked that you listened to your body and had a day of rest to walk and soak in your new life! this is the fun part! hahaha the window treatments are fabulous and the tension rod idea worked great to allow that feature fir the windows to stay visable!👍
Thank you so much for all the love and support in the recent videos. I am so shocked and grateful
You'll get settled in and everything will fall into place! So excited for you ☺
I love that your not glamorizing the process ❤ i think we can all agree that moving is chaotic
@@celestelauryn thank you ❤
@@NofilterMarion thank you so much 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 I really appreciate it. I tried my best to document the experience as authentically as I can ❤❤❤
I really enjoyed. I am also 33 and starting over. So nice to see others in their 30’s doing the same! ❤
Thank you so much! It’s very reassuring for me too ❤❤❤ Good luck with your new start. Sending you good vibes ✨✨✨
Well done for moving on your own, and dealing with such a cleaning mess! Your positive attitude is inspiring!
Thank you so much! It truly means a lot 😭❤️

Thank you so much 🙏🏽 ❤ I tried my best to document the entire experience as authentically as possible.
I have those same pink curtains! i love the pink glow they give in the morning. It's so soothing.
Love these pink curtains. My living room/kitchen doesn’t get any light. Hopefully in the next apartment I’ll get to experience the pink glow :))
I love your filming cuts Tisha. So well done, I love the story chapter feel to your videos.
Thank you so much 🙏🏽
Your a very hands on woman . Respect to you cleaning it all yourself. It will look amazing
Thank you so much ❤
That really sucks that they didn't have that all cleaned & ready to go for you. You have a great attitude and I hope you will be happy there.
Thank you so much Bonnie ❤️

@Paula DeLima Thank you so much ❤. Definitely will check it out!
I'd literally complain so hard about the lack of cleaning, that's absolutely disgusting and a huge health hazard! Props to you for cleaning

Such a shame you had to deal with all the cleaning but at least once you deep clean you know that it’s clean! Your dog is adorable❣️
It’s crazy! Since I have cleaned every corner, I feel like I do appreciate the apartment even more now. Thank you ❤🐶
Hi!!! You’re doing a Great job!!! That’s so cool with the electronic door/camera!!! Definitely would feel a lot safer to me!!! I also can’t believe you are a day over 21! 💛
Thank you so much Nicole ❤😭 Yeah, I like it a lot! It’s very convenient.
Love the curtains! I have put off getting curtains where I live because I have no idea how to install them... but you’ve given me hope!
My friend and sister helped installing the curtains. Thank you 🥰 You got this!!!

Thank you so much 😭😭😭. YOU GOT THIS!! where intention goes energy flows ♥️✨
I love how long this moving vlog is ❤
Yay!!!! Thank you ❤
That fridge situation where I would consider using Task rabbit lol
I would hire someone to come clean that out 😅 idk what I'm going to do when my boys move out later this year

Thank you so much for your kind words ❤️ ❤️ ❤️
Hey, I love your videos!! I am 25 and just got my own apartment 😊 it’s a lot of work but yay us!
Hey, Thank you so much ❤️ congratulations on the big move!!! And YAY us 😊✨
Best wishes, place looks amazing!
Thank you 🙏🏽
This is sad to see such dangerous electrical damage in this apartment and that it is not cleaned for you got the place. 👍🥰
First few weeks were so challenging and stressful. I really wanted a New York experience and I guess I got it :) thank you ♥️
I’ve hired a cleaner for every nyc apartment I’ve moved into. They are never cleaned prior unless it’s a luxury building.
lesson learnt for the next move! Thank you
What company do you recommend?
A spin mop would be helpful
