34 years ago My first home was a $1000 mobile home. We parked it for free on my parents property. Part of the floor had to be replaced. Had no heat or air. Had to use space heaters. The toilet and tub was falling through the floor and had to be fixed. The carpet had to be ripped out. It stunk. Bought cheap rugs to walk on. Had so many blankets on the bed I could not move. The washing machine was rusted on the bottom and walked across the room everytime it was on. Had an old plastic couch that came with it and a coffee table. Had no other furniture. It was rough. Lived in it for a year. If I could go back I would not change a thing. It helped make me who I am. Made me appreciate everything I have. 👍🏼
Yeah,I've had many things in my life go wrong ,but always been grateful for the struggles still,even though they were so hard too deal with,at the time ..it made a better and stronger human being!
I remember when I was living on my own at 19 years old, I lived in a washroom that I rented. Once I was so hungry and I had no food in the house that I started eating a jar of Tums antacids that were sweet. This were hard times let me tell you. But I made it out of there and now have my own home and family. Patience is a virtue 🙏
Same here. I thought I was poor and then I took a train ride through the country. America has a lot of shit holes but traveling on the Texas/Mexico border was LITTERED with extreme poverty. People were living next door to oil refineries in the US but in Mexico, everyone was living in huts without water, electricity or roads. I never felt poor again.
Have you been to Boston mass? And that is where our country is born but you got homeless elderly women lifting their skirts on teeming street above the commons…
I'm so sad I had a great landlord and loved the place but the condo board kicked us out cuz we had an iguana and a really old bearded dragon, they were never out the cages ( yes we had an adequate cage for our iggies size at the time) they claimed they were snakes and we're gonna get in the plumbing and ruin the building.... Sigh... We also got numerous complaints cuz our patio furniture had some fun colors and they took pictures thinking they were Christmas lights.... Even showed one chick it the cushions and still got notices... Never living with an HOA or condo board ever again!!!
Damn! Really? Stupid haters. They didn't even know HALF of what they were talking about! I'm sorry that happened to you and your whole family (creatures included)
It should be illegal to charge these insane amounts for these barely even 20 sq ft places the only one I would even CONSIDER living is the IKEA one and that’s just cause it’s a dollar🤨
I live in an old house with no central air, no appliances, basement that floods in the summer, and the main street is unpaved next to main street in my town. I had to buy my own appliances too. People say I got ripped off but the cheapest place in town costs 1500 for a studio apartment. I pay 375... And it is 2 bedrooms, full bathroom, large yard, and I am allowed to have up to 3 dogs or cats no extra charge. I'll deal with the annoyances for those reasons. 😆
@@Jake-li7ih full bathroom means it has a tub, toilet, sink, and closet in my state. Most places list bathroom but unless it has all of the previous things. If so then it can be listed as a full bathroom. My cousin has a toilet and sink in one room then a shower downstairs because our town has old buildings. I mean before the town had plumbing old. That means showers and tubs were in basements near the water pumps. Toilets were outhouses. That is why having it all in one location is listed as "full bathroom".
All I got to say is your lucky if The landlord checked the wiring, mine didn't and 2 days ago there was an electrical fire while my stem mom and dad were at the house with our 3 dachshunds. Thankfully my dad knows a little wiring and knows where the box was so the fire was put out quickly.
You had me laughing in some of your descriptions! 2 or 3 were at least clean and bright with fresh white paint and newer commodities. Many would be grateful for one of those.
Gaaah! This reminds me of trying to find an apartment near the University of Washington in Seattle. The apartment advertised was an upstairs bedroom closed off from the rest of the house by a screen door ONLY and the kitchen was an electric frying pan. I don't remember anything else since that was when I saw her kids were hanging off the screen, staring at everything we were doing -- and left.
My first "apartment " was just off pioneer and advertised a view of the the water ha! My only view was literally a brick wall if I stuck my head out and really stretched and squinted you could maybe make out a little blue of the sound. It was called a studio and basically was a room the size of a large closet with a half bathroom the size of a broom closet. The kitchen was just part of the room sectioned off by a counter top and had little more than room for a mini fridge and microwave. My rent was nearly 1200! This was back in 2003 and that would be a welcome price these days. Now everyone living in western Washington unfortunate enough to rent is looking at that price minimum and I'm talking for the suburbs, federal way, Renton, Tacoma. Don't even get me started on how much rent will run you inside the city limits.
@@scottjohnson378 Renting outside Seattle you spend a lot of time and money commuting and in some suburbs bus service at night shuts down. Like at 8 pm!
@@3frenchhens818 tell me about it before COVID Walmarts, for example were almost all 24 hours now 11 is as late as you'll find one open. Now I don't know if COVID is the only reason for this or if the timing is just coincidental, or a bit of both but it doesn't seem like they have any future plans of going back to their old hours which for someone like me is very disappointing, I'm a night person always have been and I'm much more comfortable being in smaller crowds. And besides casinos gas stations and WinCo nowhere else around here is 24 hours. Your right it is a bit strange for such large, heavily populated cities to collectively turn their lights off after dark similar to the way a small town middle of the country type place where the population is less than an eighth of one of these cities where it makes sense to shut down since no one is out after a certain time but here your talking tens of thousands of people work nights or just are out or up at night and I think the end result will sadly be that a lot more people are going to become gamblers because that's the only place anyone can go any time and that undoubtedly will lead to so many addictions and all that comes with it. I have first hand experience with this as my mom has since my step father passed away 4 years ago , she has slowly begun to gamble more and more to where she used to go maybe twice a year is now stopping in 3 to 4 days a week, this started for her purely out of boredom. and it right now has me wondering just how many others there possibly could be who are falling into the same trap. Anyways A bit long winded of me I know. Have a good night and take care
I have soo many friends back in NY that rent these types of apartments, Queens,Brooklyn,NYC even on Long Island.. they all pay about 2 to 3.5k a month and i believe rent went up recently.. thats either 25k or a bit over 30k for ONE year... money just gone.. Wife and i saved for two years while workin in the city crashing wherever, now we own a decent sized house in the midwest.. 60k vrs 300-400k for a 3 bedroom 1 bath fully finished basement and on a quarter acre.. No brainer.. my friends might as well just take a tourch and burn their money..
I lived in a ladies dormitory when I was in college and while it was fun, you don't really have privacy. I prefer my small home with a big backyard now, in a safe subdivision. I live on my own with my dogs, pay mortgage monthly but it's mine so I am happy with it😁 My home country encourages rent to own homes, so it's a good idea most citizens grab when they have the opportunity.
Growing up with no parents I had no choice but to live in these type of homes. I couldn't even afford the rent for the small ass places. I can't knock it. You get what you can afford. A lot of us aren't blessed with Rich parents to be able to steer em in the right direction or help them with loans. Gotta do what ya gotta do
True , but landlords don't have to be slums either . I have had my share of bad places to live . Need stricter laws , and the rent price needs to be less .
The sad thing abaut this horror apartements is that this hell holes are not allways that cheap - but with no better optipns you have to take it + the psychopathic landlotd when you are poor. Total agree - we have to do what we have to do.
Yea some of these are definitely a step up than the backseat of my car. Did that for a year. On my own since 15. Not fun. If you have parents and your basic needs met you have no idea how blessed you are.
As a fellow German I can tell you that some "apartments" come pretty close, especially in the bathroom department. In Munich I had to climb over a toilet to actually get to the shower, while the bath itself prevented you from really even sitting down or just turning around. I am almost certain that you can find similar "abodes" if you just look in the right places. In any case, almost all apartments are horrendeously overpriced at least -.-
At some point we needed a four-bedroom house so we found one nearby that was technically a three-bedroom with a large laundry room with black mold the shed was about to fall on house and the fuse box was about the burn the entire place down
So I have done some property management and aside from tenants trashing places... Lol OK so we were trying out concrete floors cause it was on campus.... But the manager thought a peach color would look great lol.. It did not... It looked like skin lol. One time some squatters got into one apartment and on the tiny balcony was a tiny storage closet. They had jammed it locked. It smelled so bad. We stalled opening it cause I seriously was scared there would be a dead body in there. ....but we had to remove the entire door. . So these squatters had made themselves a make shift outhouse. It was a bucket of..... Like I mean.... Then there was the unit where we were doing a run through of a recently vacated apartment. And the entire bathroom sink was gone. Like it was completely gone. And the toilet was so crusted over with probably puke we just had to replace the toilet. We suspected they were smack heads so.... Yeah it gets gross
You know why you guys rock? Because you always come out with something new and interesting to watch and talk about instead of the same thing over and over again. Thank you💕
I don't know what's worse. The fact that people thought that making people pay for a literal shoe box was a good idea, or the fact that people are actually willing to.
@@Mayor_Cosmo obviously you've never been homeless. I have and let me tell you, be careful what you say... you would too rather live in the worst of these than be homeless. Trust me...
@@aeondecker9210 yes. Sure beats the alternative of being homeless. I've been homeless and currently live a steps away from being homeless all I have to do is miss a paycheck really, but I'd have sold my soul or a kidney to live in any of these versus the streets of Las Vegas or anywhere really. For real.
I agree rent prices are high and most rentals are crap! Toronto is buying out most of our city rentals and jacking up the rent prices with next to no renovating! 🇨🇦
Now that we've seen the downside to these disasters, how about some on the opposite end of the scale. Nice and small. I've seen a couple of cute ones and one person I watch has an excellently made up 'tiny' apartment in South Korea. For her needs she's got an absolute gem.
I lived in Japan. Yes, Tokyo is notorious for cramp spaces, & Shinjuku arguably has more cheaper rooms/apartments to rent compared to other parts of Tokyo. To have that kind of Shinjuku room at ¥99 is worth it (usual charges = USD470/monthly & above)...but I know there's a catch. Upfront costs such as security deposit + brokerage with landlord fees + guarantor fees (for non-Japanese residents), etc. before moving in must be worth a fortune. In total, I won't be surprised the total price you pay for that "IKEA fully-furnished room" rent + deposit is ~USD800/monthly still.
Worst place I lived had: no indoor toilet was a wooden shack with a hole in the ground... out door shower.... was shower head conected to a gravity fed water tank(cold water only) shelted by drive way and 2 bushes visabal from road.... Large bath tub... boggy water dame 300m from house and floor coved in slimy slipry mud... No frunt door but had a heavy duty security screan that was over grown with vines holding I open... has a massive kitchen with a gass stove and wood stove kitchen sink and large floor space could take dance lessons on Spashes pantry... Large loundroom with broken windows... 3 Large bedrooms with open fiar places but windows were stuck open... Had working electricity... Stayed comfortable and cool in summer but in winter you would freeze unless wright next to the fair..... is an intresting experience to stay there and a comfortable camping tipe of expiriance(dreaming of a shower hot water and flushing tolit after a week.. hat to stay there for sevrel months and at times go back for a week or two at a time but avoid at all costs if can!
@@Duckatron02 you can't see somebody not wanting to pay $2000 for some bug infested cubical, either to save or look for some better living conditions lol?
Honestly if I didn't pay my first house off when I was 20 that would sound like a good idea if it weren't more expensive than. Owning but with only obligation of a tax bill of 397 a year wich equals 33 a month, it is just cheaper for me to own a 3 bedroom 850 sf house with fenced in yard. Especially when I was collecting 700 a month in rent lol
My buddy bought the same type of house for $7,500. The house next to his dads went up for sale because the owner went to prison for murder. I had to help him clean the hour out. It was a perfectly fine house. Just needed new water heater. The house however was stacked to the ceiling in every room with gun magazines lol no lie. My other buddy bought another identical house with brand new roof, water heater, AC furnace, 3 bedroom, bar in the basement. For 15k. All the houses I mentioned are not in bad neighbors but not good neighborhoods at the same time
The thing in NYC isn’t far fetched. Back in 2008 while I was still a bachelor without children, I rented a room in Washington Heights Manhattan for $750/month. But I will say it was a VERY large room with really a really high ceiling, it’s own bathroom and shower, still that was a lot back in 2008. The same room now (I’m still in contact with the apartment owner) rents for $1350/month. Expensive.
Those room are really nice and comfy, in my country, Hong Kong, there are a lot of citizens still live in rooms that have a same size of a coffin, also we nicknamed it the “coffin compartment” rather than a nice rooms in ur video
Finally, someone called out the fact that he forgot to add those “coffin homes” in this video. I’ve seen multiple images in google and watched a handful of short documentary videos about those tiny apartments in hong kong. Many people live in metal cage stacked in top of each other and some live in wooden compartments in walls. There are others living in tiny subdivided flats made illegally from large rooms, which only fit a bunk bed and a small table; they also share a small kitchen and a toilet (sometimes two toilets). What’s worse is that these apartments are rather expensive for their size, like a couple hundred dollars per month in those small apartments. Probably worse than those in new york I’m not a hong kong resident but I just know this from the media I watch or read. _edit: i added a hefty amount of extra info_
Several of these are perfectly livable, even the ones without toilet facilities. Buy a porta pottie from the nearest RV center, and join a gym to take showers. Perfectly doable for someone on a budget who is going to college, looking for acting jobs, or just plain poor! 😁👍✌
I can see living in apartments like these to save money, but those apartments cost the same as the average apartment or even HOUSE in a less expensive area!
My sister is currently living in an nonexpencive place in iowa, and for her apartment, she's paying 1000 a month for rent. But that Includes electricity, and used to include water.
OK those were pretty small I never lived in anything that small but I lived in a 1970s era mobile home for a couple years and it was so bad that the toilet fell through the floor (landlord never got around to fixing it just said to climb down and pee) and right before I moved out my front door stopped latching closed so that the only way to close it was to either move furniture in front of it or to tied it off to the tree in the front yard when I had to leave the house. I was never so grateful to move to a new place
I live in a place that was built in 1900 or 1901. Hasn't been kept up very well. My half of the house costs $600/month. After watching this video, I'm not gonna complain anymore.
I don’t understand the diss on IKEA. I’ve had IKEA furniture since I was 6 years old, back in the 80’s. The price is great, it’s easy as hell to put together, it lasts ages and if it breaks they replace it or refund it. And the best part is that it is modular and you can create your own combination to suit what you need when you need it. I can even go and buy new doors or whatever to add on to pieces I bought 10 years ago. A few times we have thought to go “high end” and get much more expensive furniture from other stores. None of it lasts as long as IKEA with such great warranties. Now I don’t even bother and I just go straight to IKEA. And I get a good laugh at a friend who paid $5000 for a bookcase that broke in 3 years (warranty only covered manufacturers defects), while all my wood furniture cost less than half that and is more than 10 years old.
Places like the 'tree house' are not too common here in the UK but they do exist. And as for 8 people 'choosing' to live there, the state of the UK's housing at the moment, not to mention the price, doesn't give people the choice to live in these hell holes. It's a choice between being on the street or having a roof over your head, even in these dire conditions. This country and government allows it so the longer it will continue. Sad but very true.
Places like these puzzle me so much... I'm a landlord to 30+ properties I MUST keep them looking and functioning at its best to keep tenants happy and property value up... Letting buildings go its just dumb.
My husband and I rented a 10' x 12' sleeping room with a 5' x 10' walk-in closet that doubled as a kitchen. The room came furnished with a double bed and a dresser, and a second dresser in the closet, which doubled as a kitchen counter, and held our cooking appliances food and dishes. We brought our own wing-back chair (where I sleep) and a cooler that doubled as both a fridge and a footstool. That was in early 2008 and cost us $65 a week. All 5 upstairs sleeping rooms shared the same bathroom. We lived there for about 4 months until the guys across the hall moved out of the large room. We then switched rooms to the large room for $75 a week. It was 12' x 16' and had a non-functional fireplace. Unfortunately it ALSO had a much smaller 2' x 4' closet. This room had a twin bed (which made it seem much larger), 2 dressers (again one was our kitchen), a computer desk, my wing-back chair, and my cooler/footstool. Our cooking facilities consisted of a George Foreman grill, a toaster, a crockpot, and a drip coffee maker. We lived THERE for 2 years, until I finely got my SSI after I had open-heart surgery.
Some of these are actually pretty cool. My apartment of 15 years is about 500 sqft. I only use about 300 sqft of it. My cat Taylor and I make due just fine. 😁
I lived in the infamous "Machete Murder House" in Fort Smith, Arkansas with my kids in 2014. The murder took place almost exactly a year before in moved in, and I wasn't notified by my landlord about what happened there before I signed the lease. It was a disgusting, roach filled stink pot, and while I was cleaning it the days after I signed the lease (and before I moved my kids in), the neighbor across the street came over and said, "So, did the owner tell you what happened here last year?" Nope, he sure didn't. Not until the next day, of course. He came over to install a fridge (which was filled with maggot stink that I was never able to remove), and said, "So, I probably should have mentioned to you the other day..." I said, "Yeah, I know now. The neighbor across the street told me." Since I was newly divorced and had little income at the time, my choices were slim. Otherwise, I would have moved immediately...especially after the evening when my kids and I got home for the day, and there was a news crew outside my front door, taping an update on the trial as my kids and I walked in the front door. Needless to say, we survived, and are all living comfortably in our own home in a different city and state. But, my kids and I will always appreciate what we have, now, having gone through that dreadful 6 months.
Decades ago in this country the US government made it against the law for apartments to charge large amounts of money for rent. When my ex-husband and I got married we found an apartment for about $350.00 a month and that included all bills. The apartments are no longer there because the owners of the apartments decided to sell it. We need the government to step in and make the landlords lower the rent, and to keep the apartments fixed up. Rent control and really, really decent apartments, and even homes shouldn't be allowed to have crappy places to live in. I know if I owned apartments or homes, I wouldn't be charging outrageous rent, and I would have them fixed up.
It is not the landlords. It is the politicians printing more and then more dollars making money you already have worth less than the day before and slowly your wage becomes insufficient.
There was an appartment that my parents and I had lived in for 7 and half years had bad plumbing, mold, no air conditioning and very little heating. People started complaining about health hazards that a health inspector constantly visited and called for the condemnation of the appartment. We named it moldville.
Well London got a bashing lol. Thought I would see the places in Japan that are even worse then most of the small places here. Enough room for a mattress and that's all
I know what it is to live in a rental place, I spent my childhood living there, and there are 2 sides to this story, at the good side, the place gave me beautiful memories, the house was spacious, and we even had a swing in our living room, but on the bad side, we had no privacy, there were like 2 spiders per bathroom, insects everywhere, one time I picked up a worm accidentally and I never slept right from that day onwards.... Tbf, The house was not bad, but it was also not perfect. I had not visited the house since I moved out, so I really wanna go there....
There are a couple things that most people clearly do not know. At least, in America, there are laws protecting tenants from all sorts of things, from massive rent hikes to uninhabitable living to eviction without cause. But if tenants do not report their landlords to the state's Public Housing Authority, the landlords will just go on doing what they're doing, mostly taking advantage of tenants' ignorance. In fact, counting on it. As an authority figure, most people assume landlords are always right. WRONG! In fact, many corporations have been "investing" in rental properties without the least idea of what being a landlord means. They think they can do as they please-- They cannot. Not without risking heavy fines and severe penalties. Tenants have rights. The specific laws and Public Housing Authorities (PHA) vary by state. Generally PHA is the branch of government that helps people stand up to their landlords. But do a search for "tenant's rights for 'my state' " and, once you scroll passed all the ads, you'll find state agencies to help you and a list of laws and responsibilities for both tenants AND landlords. (Look for a ".gov" suffix on the URL; then you know it is actually a government site.) Landlords may not care, but most states do NOT want people going homeless, or suffering at the hands of a slum lord.
My first place when I left home was a caravan. In Winter the pipes froze so for quick water in the morning, I kept some in the fridge 😂 The curtains would freeze to the windows but would have unthawed by the time I got back from work and my landlords idea of the annual service for the gas heater was to blast it with a hoover! The door wasn't very secure so I blocked it nightly with the chest of drawers but it was my home. And then the landlords cat, Motherfuss moved in with me and she made it perfect ❤️
I'm on Section 42 housing, rent is based on income. There are 3 other properties owned by the same real estate company. The first on I looked at was so small I'd have barely been able to put my desk in. They offered to build me a Murfey bed. The perks were a washer/dryer in the full-sized bath, and full-size appliances. On my income it would have cost about $400 a month. I said no. The one I'm in now is over 600 square feet, separate bedroom, and all the perks of the mini. I moved in for $388 a month. It's very well maintained, with a secure garage and a secure building. I had to wait 4 years to get it, calling faithfully every month to make sure they knew I was very interested. A lot of these places on this list should be shut down by the cities they're in. Serious health hazards that are actually illegal in most places.
Ohh London, good old London. In one of the studio flats I used to live while I was relaxing in bath after all day work....a massive part of celling plaster fall off (about half of the celling and roughly 15-20 kg) straight into the bath. Luckly did not get hit in the head but almost got heart attack 😂 Landlord refused to repair the celling blaming me and so had to patch it myself 🙄
A number of years ago while I was looking at houses there was a shocker that had all kinds of issues. There was a cord dangling dangerously low across the hallway and a couple of other dodgy things. I got the call from the Real Estate mob telling me I was the successful applicant. When I asked what they were going to do about the dangerous stuff, I got the response of "what's the problem". I kept saying the stuff was unsafe and needed to be fixed but she didn't see any issue. In the end it got quite heated and she literally screamed at me "DO YOU WANT IT OR NOT" to which I screamed back "NO!" and slammed the phone down. I thought if they were going to ignore such problems prior to moving in then as landlords they'd be pure hell. No thanks!!! Wound up renting a nice place that I'm still at years later with a nice landlord.
We lived in a rented place on top of a carpenter's shop and our place is always covered in sawdust no matter how much we clean it and worst part during rainy season we have to use polythene bags on taps because of electrical issue we got shocked so many times but it's life what can we say
Oh I forgot to mention that those units I. Describe were 400 sq ft studios or...like these partition walls to separate the bedroom from the everything else
The wrost place i lived in, was a good "house" in the starting with 1 room, kitchen, bathroom and another small corridor connecting each, big enough to be called a room, it's rent was 4000 INR, the problem was that after some time, landlord started construction in it and all the walls paint was falling down, it was so bad that we couldn't even out our back on wall without paint and plaster dripping into our clothes or heads, that's why we left it. Don't even talk about those big rats those were there and they laid kids in our bags kept in a shelf near roof
Don't get me wrong. I'm glad your back. But I love all the narrators now, so my love of the channel is now because of the content, rather that a voice popularity contest.
I’m in my teens and when I’m older I’m gunna get a house with a anix in the attic to rent for cheap and it will be good condition mainly so people can get what they need a hosue
My friend Jim and I rented a small house on a handshake and the landlord's promise that the kitchen floor would be replaced by time we moved in. A month later, we were given the key. We walked in to find no kitchen floor. I mean, NO kitchen floor. The subfloor had been torn out in the middle. Bare earth. So you'd walk down the hall and the doorway had a milk crate we could step on to "go down a level". The cabinets still had floor under them. The appliances were on the ground. We had to move the milk crate to access it all, and we put the electric stove and fridge in the living room. We were punk back then. "fuck it." I dragged in potting soil and we planted some tomatoes and herbs under the window. Meanwhile, the landlord had gone to prison so we couldn't get our damn money back. We finally went to the city to complain. They condemned the structure, so now we had no money and were out on the street. "Fuck it." We worked at the same yuppie coffee house so, once the doors were locked for the night, we'd go into the cellar and sleep. It had a shower area. That's one thing about the 80s that I don't miss.
Before i moved i the house i do live in now, i was invited to see a 'room' in Amsterdam of 1,70x4. It didnt even had enough room for my single bed.. And the landlord asked 700 euro's for it each month...
34 years ago My first home was a $1000 mobile home. We parked it for free on my parents property. Part of the floor had to be replaced. Had no heat or air. Had to use space heaters. The toilet and tub was falling through the floor and had to be fixed. The carpet had to be ripped out. It stunk. Bought cheap rugs to walk on. Had so many blankets on the bed I could not move. The washing machine was rusted on the bottom and walked across the room everytime it was on. Had an old plastic couch that came with it and a coffee table. Had no other furniture. It was rough. Lived in it for a year. If I could go back I would not change a thing. It helped make me who I am. Made me appreciate everything I have. 👍🏼
Yeah,I've had many things in my life go wrong ,but always been grateful for the struggles still,even though they were so hard too deal with,at the time ..it made a better and stronger human being!
I remember when I was living on my own at 19 years old, I lived in a washroom that I rented. Once I was so hungry and I had no food in the house that I started eating a jar of Tums antacids that were sweet. This were hard times let me tell you. But I made it out of there and now have my own home and family. Patience is a virtue 🙏
Same here. I thought I was poor and then I took a train ride through the country. America has a lot of shit holes but traveling on the Texas/Mexico border was LITTERED with extreme poverty. People were living next door to oil refineries in the US but in Mexico, everyone was living in huts without water, electricity or roads. I never felt poor again.
Went homeless/transient for 8 years in the u.s.a. Now I'm in a sweet studio in Brooklyn, NY. I know the feeling though
London is insanely expensive, no surprise to see all these horrific rental properties (and sadly the huge number of homeless people there).
Have you been to Boston mass? And that is where our country is born but you got homeless elderly women lifting their skirts on teeming street above the commons…
“If I fall asleep in the tub, will I still have my kidneys when I wake up” lmao 😂 love this dude

I'm so sad I had a great landlord and loved the place but the condo board kicked us out cuz we had an iguana and a really old bearded dragon, they were never out the cages ( yes we had an adequate cage for our iggies size at the time) they claimed they were snakes and we're gonna get in the plumbing and ruin the building.... Sigh... We also got numerous complaints cuz our patio furniture had some fun colors and they took pictures thinking they were Christmas lights.... Even showed one chick it the cushions and still got notices... Never living with an HOA or condo board ever again!!!
Damn! Really? Stupid haters. They didn't even know HALF of what they were talking about! I'm sorry that happened to you and your whole family (creatures included)
@@MyCherokeeNation agree
I've heard so much shit about HOA's and condo fees and won't even consider a condo under any circumstances!
It should be illegal to charge these insane amounts for these barely even 20 sq ft places the only one I would even CONSIDER living is the IKEA one and that’s just cause it’s a dollar🤨
It should be illegal for the gov to charge exorbitant amounts of property tax to home owners... that's why rents are so high
Fr it's insane people can't physically libe in these places safely.
I live in an old house with no central air, no appliances, basement that floods in the summer, and the main street is unpaved next to main street in my town. I had to buy my own appliances too.
People say I got ripped off but the cheapest place in town costs 1500 for a studio apartment.
I pay 375... And it is 2 bedrooms, full bathroom, large yard, and I am allowed to have up to 3 dogs or cats no extra charge. I'll deal with the annoyances for those reasons. 😆
Full bathroom you mention? That isn't a requirement?
@@Jake-li7ih full bathroom means it has a tub, toilet, sink, and closet in my state. Most places list bathroom but unless it has all of the previous things. If so then it can be listed as a full bathroom. My cousin has a toilet and sink in one room then a shower downstairs because our town has old buildings. I mean before the town had plumbing old.
That means showers and tubs were in basements near the water pumps. Toilets were outhouses.
That is why having it all in one location is listed as "full bathroom".
All I got to say is your lucky if The landlord checked the wiring, mine didn't and 2 days ago there was an electrical fire while my stem mom and dad were at the house with our 3 dachshunds. Thankfully my dad knows a little wiring and knows where the box was so the fire was put out quickly.
@@phantommusicandgames scary
You had me laughing in some of your descriptions! 2 or 3 were at least clean and bright with fresh white paint and newer commodities. Many would be grateful for one of those.
Gaaah! This reminds me of trying to find an apartment near the University of Washington in Seattle. The apartment advertised was an upstairs bedroom closed off from the rest of the house by a screen door ONLY and the kitchen was an electric frying pan. I don't remember anything else since that was when I saw her kids were hanging off the screen, staring at everything we were doing -- and left.
sounds very unnerving
Gross‼️
My first "apartment " was just off pioneer and advertised a view of the the water ha! My only view was literally a brick wall if I stuck my head out and really stretched and squinted you could maybe make out a little blue of the sound. It was called a studio and basically was a room the size of a large closet with a half bathroom the size of a broom closet. The kitchen was just part of the room sectioned off by a counter top and had little more than room for a mini fridge and microwave. My rent was nearly 1200! This was back in 2003 and that would be a welcome price these days. Now everyone living in western Washington unfortunate enough to rent is looking at that price minimum and I'm talking for the suburbs, federal way, Renton, Tacoma. Don't even get me started on how much rent will run you inside the city limits.
@@scottjohnson378 Renting outside Seattle you spend a lot of time and money commuting and in some suburbs bus service at night shuts down. Like at 8 pm!
@@3frenchhens818 tell me about it before COVID Walmarts, for example were almost all 24 hours now 11 is as late as you'll find one open. Now I don't know if COVID is the only reason for this or if the timing is just coincidental, or a bit of both but it doesn't seem like they have any future plans of going back to their old hours which for someone like me is very disappointing, I'm a night person always have been and I'm much more comfortable being in smaller crowds. And besides casinos gas stations and WinCo nowhere else around here is 24 hours. Your right it is a bit strange for such large, heavily populated cities to collectively turn their lights off after dark similar to the way a small town middle of the country type place where the population is less than an eighth of one of these cities where it makes sense to shut down since no one is out after a certain time but here your talking tens of thousands of people work nights or just are out or up at night and I think the end result will sadly be that a lot more people are going to become gamblers because that's the only place anyone can go any time and that undoubtedly will lead to so many addictions and all that comes with it. I have first hand experience with this as my mom has since my step father passed away 4 years ago , she has slowly begun to gamble more and more to where she used to go maybe twice a year is now stopping in 3 to 4 days a week, this started for her purely out of boredom. and it right now has me wondering just how many others there possibly could be who are falling into the same trap. Anyways A bit long winded of me I know. Have a good night and take care
I have soo many friends back in NY that rent these types of apartments, Queens,Brooklyn,NYC even on Long Island.. they all pay about 2 to 3.5k a month and i believe rent went up recently.. thats either 25k or a bit over 30k for ONE year... money just gone.. Wife and i saved for two years while workin in the city crashing wherever, now we own a decent sized house in the midwest.. 60k vrs 300-400k for a 3 bedroom 1 bath fully finished basement and on a quarter acre.. No brainer.. my friends might as well just take a tourch and burn their money..
I lived in a ladies dormitory when I was in college and while it was fun, you don't really have privacy.
I prefer my small home with a big backyard now, in a safe subdivision.
I live on my own with my dogs, pay mortgage monthly but it's mine so I am happy with it😁
My home country encourages rent to own homes, so it's a good idea most citizens grab when they have the opportunity.
Which country?
Growing up with no parents I had no choice but to live in these type of homes. I couldn't even afford the rent for the small ass places. I can't knock it. You get what you can afford. A lot of us aren't blessed with Rich parents to be able to steer em in the right direction or help them with loans. Gotta do what ya gotta do
True , but landlords don't have to be slums either . I have had my share of bad places to live . Need stricter laws , and the rent price needs to be less .
The sad thing abaut this horror apartements is that this hell holes are not allways that cheap - but with no better optipns you have to take it + the psychopathic landlotd when you are poor.
Total agree - we have to do what we have to do.
Yea some of these are definitely a step up than the backseat of my car. Did that for a year. On my own since 15. Not fun. If you have parents and your basic needs met you have no idea how blessed you are.
Interesting how people will see pretty basic things and automatically associate it with rich people
@@scee8474 interesting how you think what's basic to you is basic to everybody
These prices are nauseating, you can have a nice converted van for far less.
im happy that i live in germany, none of these horror rents would ever exist here because there are norms for renting
As a fellow German I can tell you that some "apartments" come pretty close, especially in the bathroom department. In Munich I had to climb over a toilet to actually get to the shower, while the bath itself prevented you from really even sitting down or just turning around. I am almost certain that you can find similar "abodes" if you just look in the right places. In any case, almost all apartments are horrendeously overpriced at least -.-
At some point we needed a four-bedroom house so we found one nearby that was technically a three-bedroom with a large laundry room with black mold the shed was about to fall on house and the fuse box was about the burn the entire place down
😱‼️
So I have done some property management and aside from tenants trashing places... Lol OK so we were trying out concrete floors cause it was on campus.... But the manager thought a peach color would look great lol.. It did not... It looked like skin lol.
One time some squatters got into one apartment and on the tiny balcony was a tiny storage closet.
They had jammed it locked. It smelled so bad.
We stalled opening it cause I seriously was scared there would be a dead body in there. ....but we had to remove the entire door. . So these squatters had made themselves a make shift outhouse.
It was a bucket of..... Like I mean.... Then there was the unit where we were doing a run through of a recently vacated apartment. And the entire bathroom sink was gone.
Like it was completely gone.
And the toilet was so crusted over with probably puke we just had to replace the toilet. We suspected they were smack heads so....
Yeah it gets gross

@@Mayor_Cosmo obviously you've never been homeless. I have and let me tell you, be careful what you say... you would too rather live in the worst of these than be homeless. Trust me...
@@aeondecker9210 yes. Sure beats the alternative of being homeless. I've been homeless and currently live a steps away from being homeless all I have to do is miss a paycheck really, but I'd have sold my soul or a kidney to live in any of these versus the streets of Las Vegas or anywhere really. For real.
I agree rent prices are high and most rentals are crap! Toronto is buying out most of our city rentals and jacking up the rent prices with next to no renovating! 🇨🇦
Now that we've seen the downside to these disasters, how about some on the opposite end of the scale. Nice and small. I've seen a couple of cute ones and one person I watch has an excellently made up 'tiny' apartment in South Korea. For her needs she's got an absolute gem.
I lived in Japan. Yes, Tokyo is notorious for cramp spaces, & Shinjuku arguably has more cheaper rooms/apartments to rent compared to other parts of Tokyo. To have that kind of Shinjuku room at ¥99 is worth it (usual charges = USD470/monthly & above)...but I know there's a catch. Upfront costs such as security deposit + brokerage with landlord fees + guarantor fees (for non-Japanese residents), etc. before moving in must be worth a fortune. In total, I won't be surprised the total price you pay for that "IKEA fully-furnished room" rent + deposit is ~USD800/monthly still.
I have no problem living in a very small place as long as it's clean and safe.
Mhm
Worst place I lived had:
no indoor toilet was a wooden shack with a hole in the ground...
out door shower.... was shower head conected to a gravity fed water tank(cold water only) shelted by drive way and 2 bushes visabal from road....
Large bath tub... boggy water dame 300m from house and floor coved in slimy slipry mud...
No frunt door but had a heavy duty security screan that was over grown with vines holding I open...
has a massive kitchen with a gass stove and wood stove kitchen sink and large floor space could take dance lessons on
Spashes pantry...
Large loundroom with broken windows...
3 Large bedrooms with open fiar places but windows were stuck open...
Had working electricity...
Stayed comfortable and cool in summer but in winter you would freeze unless wright next to the fair..... is an intresting experience to stay there and a comfortable camping tipe of expiriance(dreaming of a shower hot water and flushing tolit after a week.. hat to stay there for sevrel months and at times go back for a week or two at a time but avoid at all costs if can!

The best apartments for those who have

In Las Vegas you can rent someone's couch in their living room for about $94/week. Seriously.
😂😂😂😂😂
Honestly if I didn't pay my first house off when I was 20 that would sound like a good idea if it weren't more expensive than. Owning but with only obligation of a tax bill of 397 a year wich equals 33 a month, it is just cheaper for me to own a 3 bedroom 850 sf house with fenced in yard.
Especially when I was collecting 700 a month in rent lol
My buddy bought the same type of house for $7,500.
The house next to his dads went up for sale because the owner went to prison for murder. I had to help him clean the hour out. It was a perfectly fine house. Just needed new water heater. The house however was stacked to the ceiling in every room with gun magazines lol no lie.
My other buddy bought another identical house with brand new roof, water heater, AC furnace, 3 bedroom, bar in the basement. For 15k. All the houses I mentioned are not in bad neighbors but not good neighborhoods at the same time
Wtf 😄🤭
Most of these places are in cities that are short of housing and a lot of people would be grateful to have a bed to sleep in.
The thing in NYC isn’t far fetched. Back in 2008 while I was still a bachelor without children, I rented a room in Washington Heights Manhattan for $750/month. But I will say it was a VERY large room with really a really high ceiling, it’s own bathroom and shower, still that was a lot back in 2008. The same room now (I’m still in contact with the apartment owner) rents for $1350/month. Expensive.
Lol it's even worse down here on the Jersey Shore. Folks are charging $1500 a month for rooms sometimes.
Those room are really nice and comfy, in my country, Hong Kong, there are a lot of citizens still live in rooms that have a same size of a coffin, also we nicknamed it the “coffin compartment” rather than a nice rooms in ur video
Finally, someone called out the fact that he forgot to add those “coffin homes” in this video. I’ve seen multiple images in google and watched a handful of short documentary videos about those tiny apartments in hong kong.
Many people live in metal cage stacked in top of each other and some live in wooden compartments in walls. There are others living in tiny subdivided flats made illegally from large rooms, which only fit a bunk bed and a small table; they also share a small kitchen and a toilet (sometimes two toilets). What’s worse is that these apartments are rather expensive for their size, like a couple hundred dollars per month in those small apartments. Probably worse than those in new york
I’m not a hong kong resident but I just know this from the media I watch or read.
_edit: i added a hefty amount of extra info_
Several of these are perfectly livable, even the ones without toilet facilities. Buy a porta pottie from the nearest RV center, and join a gym to take showers. Perfectly doable for someone on a budget who is going to college, looking for acting jobs, or just plain poor! 😁👍✌
The $1 Ikea box looks actually very livable, at least for short term stays. Although it requires a membership so idk how much additional cost it adds.
Some assembly required
Ikr
yeah i personally would live in the IKEA box
@@skieblvee Me too, especially for the price .
@@valerieann2751 yeah it's perfect for me
I can see living in apartments like these to save money, but those apartments cost the same as the average apartment or even HOUSE in a less expensive area!
My sister is currently living in an nonexpencive place in iowa, and for her apartment, she's paying 1000 a month for rent. But that Includes electricity, and used to include water.
OK those were pretty small I never lived in anything that small but I lived in a 1970s era mobile home for a couple years and it was so bad that the toilet fell through the floor (landlord never got around to fixing it just said to climb down and pee) and right before I moved out my front door stopped latching closed so that the only way to close it was to either move furniture in front of it or to tied it off to the tree in the front yard when I had to leave the house. I was never so grateful to move to a new place
I would like to see a TV series of these shoebox hotels get a makeover
I live in a place that was built in 1900 or 1901. Hasn't been kept up very well. My half of the house costs $600/month. After watching this video, I'm not gonna complain anymore.
I don’t understand the diss on IKEA. I’ve had IKEA furniture since I was 6 years old, back in the 80’s. The price is great, it’s easy as hell to put together, it lasts ages and if it breaks they replace it or refund it. And the best part is that it is modular and you can create your own combination to suit what you need when you need it.
I can even go and buy new doors or whatever to add on to pieces I bought 10 years ago.
A few times we have thought to go “high end” and get much more expensive furniture from other stores. None of it lasts as long as IKEA with such great warranties.
Now I don’t even bother and I just go straight to IKEA. And I get a good laugh at a friend who paid $5000 for a bookcase that broke in 3 years (warranty only covered manufacturers defects), while all my wood furniture cost less than half that and is more than 10 years old.
Places like the 'tree house' are not too common here in the UK but they do exist. And as for 8 people 'choosing' to live there, the state of the UK's housing at the moment, not to mention the price, doesn't give people the choice to live in these hell holes. It's a choice between being on the street or having a roof over your head, even in these dire conditions. This country and government allows it so the longer it will continue. Sad but very true.
😢
Places like these puzzle me so much... I'm a landlord to 30+ properties I MUST keep them looking and functioning at its best to keep tenants happy and property value up... Letting buildings go its just dumb.
I think the difference is that you are not a slum lord
My husband and I rented a 10' x 12' sleeping room with a 5' x 10' walk-in closet that doubled as a kitchen. The room came furnished with a double bed and a dresser, and a second dresser in the closet, which doubled as a kitchen counter, and held our cooking appliances food and dishes. We brought our own wing-back chair (where I sleep) and a cooler that doubled as both a fridge and a footstool. That was in early 2008 and cost us $65 a week. All 5 upstairs sleeping rooms shared the same bathroom. We lived there for about 4 months until the guys across the hall moved out of the large room.
We then switched rooms to the large room for $75 a week. It was 12' x 16' and had a non-functional fireplace. Unfortunately it ALSO had a much smaller 2' x 4' closet. This room had a twin bed (which made it seem much larger), 2 dressers (again one was our kitchen), a computer desk, my wing-back chair, and my cooler/footstool. Our cooking facilities consisted of a George Foreman grill, a toaster, a crockpot, and a drip coffee maker. We lived THERE for 2 years, until I finely got my SSI after I had open-heart surgery.
Some of these are actually pretty cool. My apartment of 15 years is about 500 sqft. I only use about 300 sqft of it. My cat Taylor and I make due just fine. 😁
Sounds cozy...I love small spaces.
I lived in the infamous "Machete Murder House" in Fort Smith, Arkansas with my kids in 2014. The murder took place almost exactly a year before in moved in, and I wasn't notified by my landlord about what happened there before I signed the lease. It was a disgusting, roach filled stink pot, and while I was cleaning it the days after I signed the lease (and before I moved my kids in), the neighbor across the street came over and said, "So, did the owner tell you what happened here last year?" Nope, he sure didn't. Not until the next day, of course. He came over to install a fridge (which was filled with maggot stink that I was never able to remove), and said, "So, I probably should have mentioned to you the other day..." I said, "Yeah, I know now. The neighbor across the street told me."
Since I was newly divorced and had little income at the time, my choices were slim. Otherwise, I would have moved immediately...especially after the evening when my kids and I got home for the day, and there was a news crew outside my front door, taping an update on the trial as my kids and I walked in the front door.
Needless to say, we survived, and are all living comfortably in our own home in a different city and state. But, my kids and I will always appreciate what we have, now, having gone through that dreadful 6 months.
Even giving exchange rate at the time 3100 Canadian would roughly equal 2400 US still would be a rip off for Toronto ‘apartment’
Decades ago in this country the US government made it against the law for apartments to charge large amounts of money for rent. When my ex-husband and I got married we found an apartment for about $350.00 a month and that included all bills. The apartments are no longer there because the owners of the apartments decided to sell it. We need the government to step in and make the landlords lower the rent, and to keep the apartments fixed up. Rent control and really, really decent apartments, and even homes shouldn't be allowed to have crappy places to live in. I know if I owned apartments or homes, I wouldn't be charging outrageous rent, and I would have them fixed up.
It is not the landlords. It is the politicians printing more and then more dollars making money you already have worth less than the day before and slowly your wage becomes insufficient.
Goce Delchev in Skopje has been rebuilt and now it is super cool and cozy
There was an appartment that my parents and I had lived in for 7 and half years had bad plumbing, mold, no air conditioning and very little heating. People started complaining about health hazards that a health inspector constantly visited and called for the condemnation of the appartment. We named it moldville.
Sounds like the apartment I’m living at now ugh 😳😞

Some of these are smaller than jail cells. Guess what you’re paying for then, is the fact you get to choose when the door is locked.
I know what it is to live in a rental place, I spent my childhood living there, and there are 2 sides to this story, at the good side, the place gave me beautiful memories, the house was spacious, and we even had a swing in our living room, but on the bad side, we had no privacy, there were like 2 spiders per bathroom, insects everywhere, one time I picked up a worm accidentally and I never slept right from that day onwards....
Tbf, The house was not bad, but it was also not perfect.
I had not visited the house since I moved out, so I really wanna go there....
Please do more darwin awards i have been waiting for years
I would take the cramped space with IKEA in Japan. At least it looked clean, and everything had its own place.
There are a couple things that most people clearly do not know. At least, in America, there are laws protecting tenants from all sorts of things, from massive rent hikes to uninhabitable living to eviction without cause. But if tenants do not report their landlords to the state's Public Housing Authority, the landlords will just go on doing what they're doing, mostly taking advantage of tenants' ignorance. In fact, counting on it. As an authority figure, most people assume landlords are always right. WRONG! In fact, many corporations have been "investing" in rental properties without the least idea of what being a landlord means. They think they can do as they please-- They cannot. Not without risking heavy fines and severe penalties.
Tenants have rights. The specific laws and Public Housing Authorities (PHA) vary by state. Generally PHA is the branch of government that helps people stand up to their landlords. But do a search for "tenant's rights for 'my state' " and, once you scroll passed all the ads, you'll find state agencies to help you and a list of laws and responsibilities for both tenants AND landlords. (Look for a ".gov" suffix on the URL; then you know it is actually a government site.) Landlords may not care, but most states do NOT want people going homeless, or suffering at the hands of a slum lord.
Renting to buy a place/owning the land. Can help out a lot.
8:10 OMYGOD THE BE AMAZED GUY HAS HEARTS IN HIS EYES!,,😍😍😍
My first place when I left home was a caravan. In Winter the pipes froze so for quick water in the morning, I kept some in the fridge 😂 The curtains would freeze to the windows but would have unthawed by the time I got back from work and my landlords idea of the annual service for the gas heater was to blast it with a hoover! The door wasn't very secure so I blocked it nightly with the chest of drawers but it was my home. And then the landlords cat, Motherfuss moved in with me and she made it perfect ❤️
who agrees amazed has great sarcasm skills
you know it's a bad place when a jail cell could be bigger and more comfortable than it 😂😂😂😂.
i've lost hope to humanity and each time i find more and more reasons to back it up. 😂
I'm on Section 42 housing, rent is based on income. There are 3 other properties owned by the same real estate company. The first on I looked at was so small I'd have barely been able to put my desk in. They offered to build me a Murfey bed. The perks were a washer/dryer in the full-sized bath, and full-size appliances. On my income it would have cost about $400 a month. I said no.
The one I'm in now is over 600 square feet, separate bedroom, and all the perks of the mini. I moved in for $388 a month. It's very well maintained, with a secure garage and a secure building. I had to wait 4 years to get it, calling faithfully every month to make sure they knew I was very interested.
A lot of these places on this list should be shut down by the cities they're in. Serious health hazards that are actually illegal in most places.
The ones in Japan are actually great.
Ohh London, good old London. In one of the studio flats I used to live while I was relaxing in bath after all day work....a massive part of celling plaster fall off (about half of the celling and roughly 15-20 kg) straight into the bath.

Your commentary cracks me up. 😂
A number of years ago while I was looking at houses there was a shocker that had all kinds of issues. There was a cord dangling dangerously low across the hallway and a couple of other dodgy things. I got the call from the Real Estate mob telling me I was the successful applicant. When I asked what they were going to do about the dangerous stuff, I got the response of "what's the problem". I kept saying the stuff was unsafe and needed to be fixed but she didn't see any issue. In the end it got quite heated and she literally screamed at me "DO YOU WANT IT OR NOT" to which I screamed back "NO!" and slammed the phone down. I thought if they were going to ignore such problems prior to moving in then as landlords they'd be pure hell. No thanks!!! Wound up renting a nice place that I'm still at years later with a nice landlord.
That ikea miniature house is kinda weird but I like it 😂

The wrost place i lived in, was a good "house" in the starting with 1 room, kitchen, bathroom and another small corridor connecting each, big enough to be called a room, it's rent was 4000 INR, the problem was that after some time, landlord started construction in it and all the walls paint was falling down, it was so bad that we couldn't even out our back on wall without paint and plaster dripping into our clothes or heads, that's why we left it. Don't even talk about those big rats those were there and they laid kids in our bags kept in a shelf near roof
Don't get me wrong. I'm glad your back. But I love all the narrators now, so my love of the channel is now because of the content, rather that a voice popularity contest.

How are any of those places legal to call an “apartment” or even just a “room”?…. 🤦🏽♀️
My friend Jim and I rented a small house on a handshake and the landlord's promise that the kitchen floor would be replaced by time we moved in. A month later, we were given the key. We walked in to find no kitchen floor. I mean, NO kitchen floor. The subfloor had been torn out in the middle. Bare earth. So you'd walk down the hall and the doorway had a milk crate we could step on to "go down a level". The cabinets still had floor under them. The appliances were on the ground. We had to move the milk crate to access it all, and we put the electric stove and fridge in the living room. We were punk back then. "fuck it." I dragged in potting soil and we planted some tomatoes and herbs under the window. Meanwhile, the landlord had gone to prison so we couldn't get our damn money back. We finally went to the city to complain. They condemned the structure, so now we had no money and were out on the street. "Fuck it." We worked at the same yuppie coffee house so, once the doors were locked for the night, we'd go into the cellar and sleep. It had a shower area. That's one thing about the 80s that I don't miss.
Before i moved i the house i do live in now, i was invited to see a 'room' in Amsterdam of 1,70x4. It didnt even had enough room for my single bed.. And the landlord asked 700 euro's for it each month...
