    This was a smart idea. I was just telling my little sister to do the same thing. She is looking, as am I, and we discussed that doing an area and price search then just taking the time to go look at what you can. Like you and your dad did here. Awesome! Good luck on your hunt.

  • @lolitslaurenlol
    @lolitslaurenlol 4 ปีที่แล้ว +20

    You can always negotiate! Ask them the lowest price. With all this stuff going on they aren't going to fill all the units they were expecting, and therefore you have more persuasive power.

    • @KiaraMadisen
      @KiaraMadisen  4 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      Lauren Harris this is true! Most places are offerings one or two months free instead of lowering the total rent price, but I have seen some reductions on apartments.com 😊

    • @LivvyAlexW
      @LivvyAlexW 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      I am moving August 1 and I don’t get an incentive or rates reductions. I do get half price the rent in January, but that’s it. I wish they’d give reductions

    I've lived in Portland for a few years now, but I moved into my new spot two weeks after the pandemic became a full blown quarantine deal. Apartments here are already so hard to find, but I literally emailed the place, viewed it, and got it within two days, haha. It's been a trip!

    lol @ the compass. If you know where the Willamette is then you'll be able to find West/East. Takes some time. Looks like you're only exploring the West side? East side is where it's at imo. Have you looked in the NW though? I first lived in the Lloyd District but am now in the Richmond neighborhood. Good luck!

  • @SaraMargheim
    @SaraMargheim 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    It's so cool to see a local town on TH-cam! Have you toured any apartments in person in Portland? When I was searching for an apartment last year in St. Johns, I thought 500sq ft would be plenty of space for me and my boyfriend. The layouts and pictures look so good online, then you actually see the space with your eyes and they're SO small. If you're living by yourself though, it would probably be ok! I wish rent prices were the same as the times when our parents were our ages haha

    • @KiaraMadisen
      @KiaraMadisen  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Ugh I know what I would give for cheaper rent, but still amazing amenities 😂 I am waiting for buildings to open again for tours, but most are closed due to the virus. I'm not in a crazy rush, so I'm doing my research now and hopefully by the time I narrow it down to my top apartments I can see them in person :)

    Idk if it’s the same in your car, but for mine with the seats you usually have to be in park, but you set the seat where you want it and then hold the 1,2,or 3. Mine beeps so I’m assuming yours would too.

    My apartment now has a whole wall of windows, but the back part where the "bedroom" is, is super dark. The lounge end where the windows are, isn't actually super bright here during spring, winter or autumn/fall. It's only super nice in summertime.

    • @KiaraMadisen
      @KiaraMadisen  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      hmm really good to know! That's why it's so hard to know without touring!

    BROOOO I’m so excited for you!!!!!! That snazzy organized iPad spreadsheet is amazing 🙌🏻 I also have to apartment hunt during these times down in Long Beach, it’s so sad we can’t get real tours haha it’s like throwing darts in the dark and hoping you hit a good apartment 😅

    • @KiaraMadisen
      @KiaraMadisen  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I know! I love the water aspect, the only thing is that it's so loud and there is a train right across the stress too...so we shall see, but some of those places are still on the list :)

    this video got me feeling so nostalgic, we looked at all the same apartments in the NW area during our apartment hunt last month ☺️! Rivage and Kado were some of the apts that were also on the top of my list. Just wanted to share that some negative reviews I read on Q21 were regarding noise from surrounding units. Excited to see which one you'll end up with!

    • @KiaraMadisen
      @KiaraMadisen  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Maybe a dumb question, but why do call Doug, Doug? Is he your stepdad instead of your dad? Or do you just always called him that? 😊

      It's really random why I do...one day I just started as a joke and then it stuck! But he is my real dad and it's just like out family joke because my parent's names are Doug & Didi 😂

    tip!! if you're able to, ask the current residents their favorite and least favorite thing about living there. always helps getting the honest opinion of a resident versus a realtor!

    • @KiaraMadisen
      @KiaraMadisen  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Love that idea! We did ask a girl her experience at one building (from 6ft away of course) and it was super helpful!
