My New York City apartment tour! Leave a thumbs up if you dig minimal living and let me know what you think ✌🏼
Erik Conover Goals! Just Goals! Much LOVE.
Erik Conover what a perfect space Erik! So minimal and stylish.
Love your new apartment it’s perfect. Fantastic outdoor space. Cosy and stylish. 👍
Au contraire, Monsieur Erik. I could stuff 13 circus clowns, an entire college sorority, and a couple midgets, hrrump, little people, into that kitchen of yours.
Nice tour, though. One thing: I have what you call a snake plant, but we like to call them mother-in-laws' tongues up here. Cheers.
Awesome job brother. Love seeing you how far you've come
I love how this young man makes sure he gives the credit to his mom...and he cooks, adorable, well done mom!
sus2731 Nice young man, and very well spoken. He will do just fine
Seriously. I know he has a gf now but this is what attracts women.
I enjoyed your apartment tour but loved your positivity even more. This world needs people like you.
When a guy gives credit to his mom like that.. that says a lot for him.
@Wyn S nothing wrong with a mommas boy! They are usually gentlemen.
@@sariyah4 true true
The space actually looks more spacious than it is and it was made incredibly functional. I pay $1,027 a month for a one bedroom in Orlando FL. It’s 776 square feet. This makes me totally appreciate the space that I have.
You’re so “real” Erik, I expected to see some snooty dude showing off his apartment, instead you’re just an everyday guy who makes the small space work intelligently. Bravo and good luck in all you do!
Thank you for the complement!
Brian Hakey Agree. Long you’re happy I’m happy for you. I love your place
I thought he would be like that, too at first.
But he is just beyond snooty. That is what makes him so likable!
Erik,
You have a talent for making a tour of a relatively small one room apartment seem like a tour of an elaborate mansion.
Apartment hunting in NYC is no joke. I’m in the process now and it’s so hard to choose! P.S. you mom did great decorating 💖👍
STELLLAAAAA
once you find that spot it is such a feeling of relief!
He said he travels a lot. I'm sure once he's ready to settle down he'll move into something bigger lol.
You mean you actually have a choice of more then one apt in NYC to choose from. Nice.
Wearing shoes and bicycle inside the room 😨 I'm having a culture shock
irism the shoes bothers me but he doesn’t really have anywhere else to put his bike
Same
@@dira8072 Lmfao, it's not superstition. Not wearing shoes inside the house is literally to prevent outside dirt to get in to the house.
Once i ran over a dog poop and by bicycle tyres were like..... You understand right?......i could smell dog poop on his carpet right now
irism same.
Jesus, I live in southern Illinois and I just got a 1,000 sq. foot luxury apartment for $1,000 a month. Crazy how location determines price that much.
Salukis!!
Mann125 Aventus can someone please explain to me why right win Americans hate liberals and what do liberals have to do with the left or communism. Liberal and communism ideology are literally the exact opposite. Liberals want personal freedom. Wtf does that have to do with the left. Do Americans even know wtf liberal ideology is? Or am I stupid?
@@HerreDePerre no, the people who use the terms interchangeably do not know what either means.
I live in a 290 sq ft studio for $1,100 in SE Florida 😢
@Mann125 Aventus do you know what a "commie" is?
If I had an apartment in NYC it would look like this
lets be roommates
I'll buy the air mattress!
A little sleeping bag on the kitchen floor, another in the front hallway, and you could split that rent 3 ways!
Dream about something bigger, bro
@@xianritchie I'll take the closet lol
I had a great time helping you decorate your apartment! Lovely space and light....the last piece is going to be freakin awesome!! Love you, mom
hilarious and cute!
Where did you find the fake plants?
Emily Dunagan Homegoods and Pier1
@Jackie McCartney Don't be that person.
following eriks mom for the bulldog content
Love the couch 🛋
Lost LeBlanc Love your work man keep it up! A French (Parisien) viewer
thank you brother, your Philippines series has been incredible!!
I love the couch too. I want one!
Love that he named his plants! The size of the furniture matches the space, so the apartment looks as though it has more room than it does.
I thought he slept on the couch at first
Me too...
V all
me three
Liu Tze Long me four
Liu Tze Long ME TOO😂
Great use of space and tastefully decorated! Compared to my apartment in the suburbs, yours is 1/3 the size and 3x the price 😩. That view probably makes it worth it though!
Erik this apartment screams good vibes! Love it and love the casual bits you threw into this video! X
I get it you're paying for location and view.. 😑 but for $2200 a month you can get a 2-3 BR apt in queens, Bronx, and even Brooklyn ..
Seriously though, Queens is cheaper, has more culture, and is literally a 30 minute subway ride from Manhattan if you gotta get there. People who need to live in Manhattan are basically full time tourists lmao.
You also pay for a feeling. The feeling of living in Manhattan is completely different than living in the Bronx, Queens, or Brooklyn. What matters is where it feels like home. Where it feels right. For him, it’s Manhattan. He is paying for more than just views and location.
those places aren't safe, You get what you pay for.
Vero Delgado queens and Brooklyn are pretty safe! Especially Astoria or Williamsburg and their also just a short commute ride to the city
You can't really generalize an entire borough, they're all fairly large and diverse. They all have their share of both rich and rough neighborhoods.
2500 a month for 300 sq feet?!? That's insane. My college dorm room was bigger than that
Your place is more a home than most of these mansions you show......never forget you make a home , not the place
Peace
Blink!
Blink!!
Nida Khatri I’m also a Blink
Dang, $2250 a month for a 300sqft apartment. New York is a joke lol. Not really, people get used to it but still...
anyone who can get used to renting for $2,250 a month can be my tenant anytime.
Lol trust that the everyday joe does NOT get used to it. It’s absolutely a total joke. Especially because there is no need for rents to be so high if one really thinks about it. It’s ridiculous, and I can say so. I live in manhattan too (nowhere beware downtown though) These are downtown prices. For the same price a bit more north you can at least get a bedroom for that price.
No, we don't get used to it. It's because there are people who relocate to NYC and is willing to pay $2500 for a closet that apts in NYC cost this much!
I'm mexican and that is what the average population earns in a year!!!! with $2250 you can rent a mansion.
yeah it kind of is a joke, but its all relative. the opportunity to make SO much more money exists in NYC. so yeah, 2250 is a lot, but then you can easily make 60k a year starting...
2250/month and you have to have a murphy bed in your living room. Thats insane
somehow looks better than most million dollar homes on this channel
It’s probably worth a million dollars😂😂😂
it is a million dollars
Late to the party on this, but I REALLY love this space! Saving this for reference. Hope you’re still living your passion, Erik!
Coming from poverty. I see the value in spending more for less. Because he’s upgrading into a higher quality experience. I now understand why someone would pay $2,500 for a studio. The place he lives is beautiful! He is not only paying for space. He like a lot of other people choose quality of life over cheap rent and space. What’s with our obsession with space anyway. Less is more...
Everyone is secretly a hoarder. That's why, people are greedy, and they want more space so they can buy more shit.
Jason Ullerich Just insane! I would rather just get a beautiful, balcony view one bedroom. In a beautiful neighborhood.
MonsterpieceCroix Right! I feel like when you get a bigger place. It feels emptier. So why not get a smaller space. And have just want you need. Take they disposable income and go travel or something.
@@freethinker3083 exactly! And that's what that bro in the video is doing.
It's beautiful. You work so hard, and it's awesome to see it paying off!
thanks for the love :)
I flipping love this apartment! Loving the vintage vibe it gives, the plants are amazing as well! Kind of reminds me of my studio/workroom and oh how I should record a tour as well. Thanks for reminding me, haha!
you should film one!
I love Mike! Of all your buddies...he's the best! (And I could be his grandmother....) plus...your studio is perfect. Thank you for the tour.
Exactly!!! ❤️ Less is more…so many ppl in the society especially nyc don’t know it…
Your apt is minimalist but cozy. It looks comfortable and spacious because of your noncluttered look. Mom did a good job. Thank you for sharing.
My son is about to get married. He’s looking for an apartment and is kind of frustrated. “How can we live in a small space?” I’m like your mom, sending him pictures & videos of small space ideas. So far YOURS IS THE BEST! Thank you for inspiring people!
I watch these tiny apartment for outrageous prices videos for pure entertainment... you actually have to lift your bed up and down every day and have no proper cooking space for $2,500 a month, love it 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
KARINA Renee and where you live is boring, it’s all relative
@@alexfarrell29 just your opinion dude.most think you guys are just stupid
@@ruthgoddard6539 the cost is mainly because of the location.
@@prateek1703 ha ha. It would have to more then just location to get most people to liveclike that. I grewcup poor. Living in conditions i never want to do again.wasting money just to live in the middle of the bub. No thanks.you young fools can do that. I heard all you need to do is take the subway and you can be there in 15 min.
i'm guilty of the same thing. people like this are hilarious and its so unnecessary lol
Minimal apt for maximum price but location is everything. Gotta Love a man who cooks 😋😊👏👌
I love what he’s done with the space💕 This is realistic in New York and I love that he’s not being pretentious. Charming and handsome just like him 💕🥰
I absolutely LOVE your Minimalistic style. Very classy, cozy and rustic. Love all of the wooden accents and the neutral colors. The view is AMAZING! Aside from that breathtaking view, the Murphy Bed is the star of the show! My jaw literally dropped when you pulled it out. I'm sure my neighbors heard me yelling, "Woooahhh!"😄👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Here I am complaining about rent in LA... wow...
Word
This is the main reason why I left NYC. Everything is super expensive.
What is rent in l.a?
here i am complaining about rent in Paris lol
Manhattan is very expensive but I doubt it is as expensive as San Francisco.
I love the details in the apartment. Shout-out to Erik's mom!
Awww wish my mom would decorate my apt haha. It looks AMAZINGGGGGG!
hahah thank you Jenny!
Here comover yyu love apartamet adorei york
Qyes OK luzima apartamnt ylove you baby
Kudos to mom! I'm a designer and the way you two decorated is perfect for a smaller space. I tell my clients: Double duty pieces and build up and you will never feel like the space is small. New Subbie!
Going to school in Manhattan and apartment searching casually, I know it's hard to find a place like this. The large ceilings, decent bathroom and closet space, it's also not terribly outdated. Not to mention in Chelsea, wow. I mean more power to you, it's a nice space.
"biking is just the perfect way to go" welcome to the Netherlands man, more bikes then people and more bikeroads then normal roads
True.............they almost cycle from birth.
@@yvonnecampbell7036 I cycled out of my mom when I was born man.
@@dekaaizer2550 Hahaha, I'm glad the pedals didn't get stuck then.
That''s awesome, if you're 20. And healthy. Not so much for other people. But I loved the Netherlands. I'm part Dutch. The bike paths are amazing.
@@toddfarkman2177 Actually in the Netherlands since they cycle from young most elderly people are more healthy than elderly people in most other countries. I've seen numerous old people cycling in major cities like Amsterdam as well as my home town of Venray and nearby Zeist.
Love the apartment Erik, and the awe sound effect when talking about your mom was so funny.
I love a cozy kitchen. You can reach everything without having to walk.
Love your apartment! Great location and view! Cooking your own meals makes up for the higher rent. I could totally live there. Shoutout to your mom for helping you with decor! Minimalist but not sterile. Just the right amount of homey touches that express your personality and your excellent taste. Your steampunk bike hanger-upper and Murphy bed are genius. I love to see young people livin their dream! Best wishes to you!
Probably my favorite appartment tour so far! Light, fresh but cozy (love the vintage stuff!) and best of all: straight to the point!
Happy for you Erik! Your apartment looks fabulous! -You have wonderful taste.
Have a fabulous New Year!
P.S. I LOVE the studio light. So awesome!
dude, first 5 seconds into your channel and wow. That intro blew me away. excellent filming and editing. just brilliant stuff!
I don't think I've ever commented (even though I've never missed any video of yours), but I don't know what was about this video that is so full of energy... it's just a beautiful video to watch! Left me with a smile at the end!
comment more :) I'm always checking out the comment section and thanks!
OH MY GOD! You are literally what I strive to be. Your apartment is hands down the best on I've every seen. It's so small yet you are so positive. As soon as I graduate I'm going to aspire to have your attitude. Btw this is the first video I've seen of yours and I love it.
Who's hear after the new 2,000 sq ft upgrade. Dude quintupled the size of his home 😅
Haha !
I LOVE YOUR APARTMENT! ITS PERFECT! Also random but its important for me to share, I love that you post on Sundays because it gets me motivated and inspired to have a good week with work etc. It sets me in a mood that "hey one day i am going to move to NYC and live my dream but I got to start where I am now and work hard to make my way to accomplish my dream..." Will always support you Erik, thank you for the inspiration!
You can make it happen!
rent payment = $2,250 - Did I understand this correctly?
That's pretty typical for NYC
Yup. Nyc
On House Hunters a couple bought a one bedroom condo for $800,000 and paid HOA fees (or whatever they are called) of $1900.00 a month. The condo was on the 4th floor so the view was buildings and the HOA only provided a doorman and gym. THAT is freaking insane!!
@@irisheyesofbelfast that is why you rent in NYC, you get all the amenities, HOA, other fees usually included. Some monthly fees for newer condos are equivalent to taking out a second mortgage.
Its typical in Manhattan and upcoming/gentrify neighborhoods in NYC.
That bed is a game changer bro 🙏
honestly don't know why it took me so long to invest in one
I like that it's not gaudy or obnoxious. It's warm and simple.
I absolutely LOVE your place. So cute and cozy. Well decorated too!
Great video straight and to the point. Location, price, amenities, pros and cons all covered in under 10 mins with great edits!
It is official, I am glad I subscribed to him
That is gorgeous and cosy and beautifully masculin!!
great vidéo and great cosy apartment 👍
I get it the view is cool but it doesn't make sense, If you travel a lot why spend so much on an apartment that you're rarely in?
I would get something cheaper so I can travel more. It's a hip, stylish and cool apartment though.
Tall ceilings + that view 👌
I love your intro Erik and how you already put folks in their place “I chose to live in a tiny apartment” 😂👍🏾
damn straight
Your apartment is so amazing!! I really like the aesthetics and the bed is amazing???
Nice to see someone who is so enthusiastic about life.Greetings from across the pond.
Erik, must admit. It is my first comment on youtube..but! you have an incredible apartment! moving to city next month and think this video was the MOST USEFUL than any other! thank you!
In a place like that, I think it would be cool to buy a night starry night projector and it lights up your room witj a bunch of dots resembling as stars. 🙂 It doesn't cost very much, but it'll be a cool thing to have.
I've got one, but I don't live on my own yet, and the first place I'd probably get would look similar to this apartment, but I'm thinking of moving to South Florida of course because it's tropical and paradise.
Thanks for sharing your space. I love the murphy bed and rooftop- they make 300 sqft feel a lot larger!
Erik the upgrades from the tiny pigeon apartment and working at the hotel to traveling the world and this beautiful apartment. Love from Canada and upload more on snapchat man
I post mainly on Instagram stories!

Can’t wait to do a tour of our new apartment, coming soon!
That’s right young man. Give thanks to your mother and all she’s done for you. Your appointment is sooooo nice. Wishing you the best. Your mom has done a fine job raising you. Kudos to her 👏🏾
Wow, you really made the most out of the space! It looks so nice and cozy :) the bed is such a cool idea. But damn, $2.500, that´s why I could never live in New York :D
I justify working hard to be here for the crazy prices
Gotta love a man who gives a shout out to his Mom, plus you are left handed ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️. By the way cool apt. Super view. 🤗🇨🇦
I'm not the only person to see that he is left handed.
This apartment is decorated so cute!
Simply love this guy’s energy
Loveeee your studio, decorated just so perfectly, your a good man, giving credit for your moms help..
Love your view, and your taste in decorating.
I’m glad someone like Tom Misch too ❤️
The mom shoutout 👌🏻👌🏻
Your apartment is adorable and you are so handsome 😍
But your friend’s commentary in the background had me cracking up
Hi from Mexico City. I really enjoy your passion for life. I like as well the quality of the images in all your videos. Good job Erik.
love love love this!!!! best apartment tour video I've seen!!! (& I've seen a lot!)
Some girls: That closet is SUPER tiny!
Him: This closet is SUPER super large.
Damn, NYC apartment goals!!
Claire Thompson are you american?
When Erik and Jessica upload at the same time. ❤️❤️ love you both
Abc Cba yes, they always upload at he same time.....I have a feeling that they might be back together...that would be so nice 👍
IKR! I still wish they would collab
Thankishoutd ekikyou babi
You yes instagran luzima carioca rio baby
Best interior design I have seen in an apartment tour. Lovely.
I know this post is about your apt and i really like how you set it up but I have to say there is something very real and warm and kind about you as a person. That is what I loved most about this post. Especially the shout out to your mom. Sooooo sweet. Either you are the sweetest guy ever or a great actor. Back to the apt though I like the touches like the light and the bike mount. I like the bed as well. I don’t usually like those kinds of beds but it fits well into this apt without looking awkward.
Erik, love how you decorated it! It's so chic and cosy. Both you and your mom have a keen eye for design. How much did the Murphy bed cost and how tough was it to install it?
3:38-the smoke is flowing in instead of out... 😯
You're apt is super cute! Thanks mom!! I'm moving in!2😉
I LOVE YOU APARTMENT!!! So cozy and in a great hood...I lived on 24th and 7th (for free...that's another story for another day) back in 2009.
Your apartment has a great positive feel about it.. it's awesome.. i LOVE small cosy living.. everything about it is right.. if you work hard and can afford it why not spend that!!.. it's your life and your money.. thank you for sharing.. very inspirational ❤❤❤
5 years ago after college I had to make the choice to pursue my career in finance in NYC or Miami. After a lot of deliberation I went with Miami. I've been able to buy multiple properties since then and generate cash flow / build equity. I sometimes wonder what would have been in NYC but hearing about rents up there makes me feel great about my decision. The opportunities are undoubtedly greater, but at what cost?
Grab a place in the new Aston Martin tower
BEAUTIFUL!!
Great apartment. I'm sure Your neighbours pay regular visits to your house in winters.
Because a room with you in it must be pretty hot.
I just accepted my dream starter job and am planning on saving up some money after being unemployed for the past 3 months and then moving into downtown St. Louis, MO. I am planning on saving about 5-6 months in order to get me in a place to where I can move in without going into debt and have a good amount of savings. A tiny studio in a downtown high rise is one of the options I'm giving myself, and I am rewatching this and Cody Jensen's studio tours to inspire me on how to furnish a possible tiny studio to make it cozy and a place I am proud to come home to. I'm ready to continue the minimalist life.
Kudos Mom! Love your personal touches. Erik, your apt is AMAZING!
I wish i could live in NYC but I’d be so homesick because I’m from Australia 🇦🇺
Ok, I was really skeptical... but that tiny apt is worth every penny - that view, the rooftop, clean layout, nice accents.
new york is expensive because it has ALOT of opportunity, you dont have to go far for it either, and the supply and demand
Just keep doing what u do, don't ever give up loved ur channel, so realistic no fake ass stuff !!!!
Honestly Been Getting More Comfortable With Studios Mainly Because Where I'm At Financially. This Video Made Me Feel So Much Better
