Living Inside New York’s WORST Apartment…

- Words cannot describe what living in a place like this is actually like. New York City takes a lot out of you, and when you consider the prices of apartments like this, it might seem like living here is near-impossible. Good thing the landlord plans to renovate.

For $2800 you’ll still have enough to buy tissues when you cry yourself to sleep every night
People move to Manhattan to punush themselves and regret not moving to Queens.
My salary is like 2000 euro a month. 😯
Lol, That about sums it up!.. I live in new england. 700 a month to rent a room in a ranch w 2 others.Nice private back yard w bird sounds, town of about 15,000 yet almost crime free.Plenty of entertainment and hwy access, I lived in washington heights manhattan for a month with a friend and never understood why people would pay money to live there,they should actually pay YOU to live there lol
@@Idellle and here you can rent 2 1-family houses with that
@@blueforest2927in the normal cities of the Midwest you can rent houses for 2-3000 a month and that’s like 2000 square feet 3 beds 2 baths, a garage, a driveway and a yard. Living in a big congested city is not the way to go if you want an actual free life.
NY really needs to get it together! These prices, and living conditions are sick.
I was thinking the same thing. Cheaply done renovations but high rent. The crazy thing is it doesn't even come with in unit laundry. I really want to know who the hell is interested in renting these apartments.
@@graffmixer Exactly! I'm from Jersey, and have always considered moving closer to the city, but instead have decided elsewhere bc I refuse to pay to live in outdated and unsanitary conditions.
@@creativemelanin I wouldn't give up on that. You can still find something with a great deal but in the outer boroughs. You just got to hop on it fast.
Have you seen Hong Kong lately?
How can anyone afford to live in ny?Those rents are more than I make
When the fridge doesn’t open completely you can’t get the drawers to pull out completely, which could make it so you can’t get to all your food. But also it means you can’t properly cleanly your fridge cause you can’t take the drawers out to clean under them or even all the way in them. That’s a problem. They need to stop making spaces that are too small for appliances
I was thinking that as well. That left crisper drawer is a future science project.
Ehhhh minor stuff... just don't use that 1drawer. No biggie... It's nyc DEAL with it. It's worth it )
@@rickrolledtruth5834 LOL, the difference between men and women. Or, is that a socially incorrect thing to say these days?
@@SL_Derby brother, i myself didn't want go there due to this warped FKD society we are in now. Since you have balls to say it.... YES that's exactly why... It's a minor thing that can easily be worked on. The drawers TURN them to side and I'm sure they will come out to clean. I remember back in the day I lived in these apartments but guess what, that's when they were really bad and landlords didn't give a F... so yea seeing how these Apts have changed from then to now and to hear something like " frig door don't open all way " smmfh lol makes me laugh at how I had to maneuver around the places I've been in nyc. IT'S NYC DEAL WITH IT... be fortunate enough that you didn't live in them back in the late 80s early 90s.
@@rickrolledtruth5834 LOL -actually, I'm female and wasn't born with balls. I find I'm growing them with age. 😄...just a "tell it like it is" older woman, we tend to get that way.
The 1st apartment with the standing water in the tub is a red flag 🚩 That 2nd apartment with all that garbage in the entrance turned me off and I probably wouldn’t 😢have even went any further because of it. Charles saved the day.
I live in a nice building, since I'm on Ontario Disability, I have RGI. When I moved in, the water in the tub wasn't draining properly and I ended up with fungal infections on both ankles and feet. It took the admin in the building about 2 weeks to get it sorted out. I have 2 things against me here. I'm not French (I live in a building that used to be exclusively for French speaking ppl) plus I'm one of about a dozen apartments who are reserved for RGI tenants. Ugh. I grew up in a place that is predominantly French and could speak it quite well. Moved away at 12 and really didn't have an opportunity to speak French, so 40 years later, I'm lost. I can understand my fair share, but I don't let on because I love it when ppl are talking about me, specifically the way I dress; I'm not into senior fashion at all. 😅
Roach infested!
I thought the same thing. If I had seen that garbage at the entrance, I would have turned around and walked right back out. That really tells you something about your neighbors.
Fewer things piss me off more than grossly overpriced apartments where the landlords are clearly phoning it in. The lack of pride in those first two offerings are huge red flags that any issues which might come up will not be promptly addressed.
That indoor upper grid walk area with the A/C at the end would be a GREAT place for cats to hang out!! 😺😺😸
First thing I thought of.
I think it's called a catwalk....seriously. It's a small bridge used in buildings.
Thank goodness Charles appeared and saved the vid. Those first two apartments were diabolical. How any landlord would think they are acceptable accommodation, or can get away with presenting them as such. Pure greed.
If you're charging that much, I think you can do some repairs...
Charles had me giggling the whole time. I stoped paying attention to the apartments and was just looking forward to hearing him 😄
Those 1st 2 apartments were horror shows waiting to happen. The landlords should be paying tenants to live there. At least Charles Munroe comes through for the win once again.
I agree. Just say no to the first two!
I have to admit that I do like the second apartment at $2800. Yep... it needs work but I liked the feeling of the oldness and solidness of the unit.
@@sinash well now I have to rewatch the video to see what you're talking about!
They film American Horror stories in those places.
I noticed for the first two we weren’t shown any of the outside things….so I am thinking 🧐 the things outside is ghetto just like the apartments. Are they going to fix those things and do they keep up with repairs?
Hell NO to apt. #1 & 2. My Man Charles brings the heat. Love you Charles. THAT was the best apt. so far in the East Village. I wish I could afford it.
NYC apartments are so depressing. 😟
Kitchen in the apartment for 2,800 is screaming "Run, run for your life". Apartment looks old and tired after a harsh life.
Bathroom directly next to kitchen “gem”
The real test of a refrigerator doors clearance is .... can you open the crisper drawer?
Nope. So never spill anything!
This is precisely why I removed my crisper drawers and use them for fruit on top of the fridge. Of course, I had to move the (thankfully electric) oven/stove to do it.
OMG the duplex loft one was spectacular. Crazy how expensive NY is
Yet again, Charles brings the heat. I love Cash’s vids- but Charles just elevates the quality!
Seriously, the 2 of you together is a fantastic duo. The banter is always so much fun!!
Plus I love the bikes! If anybody trolls either of you- you KNOW so many of us jump on those comments so fast!!
Keep up the great work!
Happy New Year!
Cash shows a variety, Charles uses Cash to show high end listings. That doesn't necessarily mean Charles deals exclusively in higher quality digs... I'm sure Charles' needs the additional advertising, provided by Cash, to rent his higher priced units.
So true they vibe off of each other sooooo well. Steady laughing at each other, their jobs and everything. Plus his apartments are fn fire. If I lived over there I'd so go to him.
I could not agree more!
Those first two can only be described as depressing.
I love how Cash juxtaposed his apartments with Charles'; showing a realistic view of the market. The "marble" contact paper was certainly optimistic. :)
H, til that cabinet started wobbling and falling apart everywhere
@@j.kristineemmons LOL
That was truly a try to make the best of what you have situation. Unless it was actually the landlord who did that in which case I wouldn't be surprised the slapped a sticker on something to avoid replacing it like they slap paint on everything.
Thank God I won the NYC apt lottery last month. This is my third time winning . I am happy to have a semi-luxury apt . But to most NY’er my apt is luxury . I am spoiled now . I refuse at this point not to live in a apt unless the building is brand new and the rent is controlled.
I'm so glad you are happy with your apartment because it makes me so sad that people are going to end up paying this much to live in these first two he showed. :(
@@Foreverenpointe : your 100 right for the first . Some landlord’s need to be ashamed of what they asking for to live in a dump
Wow how can they manage to have a kitchen with ZERO counter space? How do they expect anyone to prepare food that way?
Stand alone island will work for that kind of kitchen. But yeah, it's ridiculous!
The landlord wants you to pay and not complain, so stop complaining and be grateful the landlord gave you a kitchen
Lol
@Octomi But you payed 300, not 3000....BIG difference.
Welcome to New York. I've seen worse in New York city. Alot of people basically live in a large-ish closet & the rents are INSANE!!!!!
Simple... you don't prepare food.
If you can't open the fridge all the way, it will be hard to clean it well because you can't remove the bins on the bottom or the shelves
You turn them sideways ......WOW ... it's nyc DEAL with it... minor stuff... what matters is location, location....yea location )
OMG I thought that first apt was the intro to the next horror flix and that 2nd apt was the sequel 🫣🫢😬😱 Charles I couldn’t keep my eyes off you….you look amazing!!!!! 😍😍😍
Those 1st 2... yikes!
It's always a good video when Charles shows up!
Charles "New Toilet Seat Guarantee" Munroe ! Putting all the other realtors to shame !
Love the rapport you and Charles have when you get together and include him in your videos. Love it.
Wowzers that loft duplex was something else 😳. Personally and economically..I was more partial to the first one with the basement. Awesome tours, and bonus! We get Charles content
Does anyone else think Charles looks like and sounds like a younger Al Roker? I will never live in New York City area but I enjoy watching Cash's videos and I have learned a lot about the area. Maybe I will get to visit one day!
The first one, no place to sleep. For $4,000 you'd get a claustrophobic sleeping slot and a basement with no windows. For $2,800 you get a 5th-floor walkup - better, but both places are tired, abused and gross. Charles to the rescue! For $4,450 you get an oddball layout but lots of space, a communal courtyard and two bathrooms. For $5,250 you get large rooms, great kitchen and a view, clean but pricey! For $8,900 you get some luxury and living space, three very different bedrooms and your own bathroom, also pricey for having to share.
A "sleeping slot" love it😄 that could be a new selling feature and it comes with its own claustrophobic sleeping slot!
Yeah but most people can't even afford the $2,800 one on their own, so...
Personally I'd take the oddball layout and get a roommate :')
I don't get paying 8,00 for rent! Isn't it cheaper to own at that point?
Take the train out of the city. Cheaper. How do people live there on minimum wage?
Charles always brings the most interesting stuff. You two are great to watch together!
2nd apartment has potential but seeing that bug and the weird bathroom did itself in.
Charles always has really nice apartments, but you’ll pay lots for them. If it’s worth the money is up to you to decide.
The landlord for the luxury 3BR apartment needs to fix those damages on the walls… and for almost $9K a month, I had hoped for an in unit washer/dryer and a gym downstairs.
Did you see the garbage piled in the entrance hallway? In nyc, that is prime hint that the building is roach infested
I love seeing Charles, and you show apartments, y’all are hilarious.
That 1st apt had roaches and bed bugs running over me. I lost everything I had to bed bugs once. Once we found them, we left in a hurry after a month. I could never live in NYC
The duplex loft looks amazing! Would be fun setting that one up, my fav today!
HAHA Charles "absolutely!!" Is legendary!
Cash, those first two places were pretty jenkie…….
Charles had the nicest ones…
Happy Wednesday….❤
Charles came with the win. I love that loft!
Hi Cash 👋! Hope you and your family had a great Christmas! I usually watch your videos until the end, but @4:19 I become discouraged. NYC is sucking the life force out of us regular folks. And the rents are "too damn high" for truly crappy apartments.
Besides the FACT that Charles is such a nice and entertaining guy, he has some of the coolest places we saw for quite some time! Love him.
You and Charles work well together.
Once again, Charles brings it for the camera. Love him.
The big one with all the closets, shelves, and weird walkway to the AC certainly was some kind of office. Again, would love to know the history.
I really enjoy your videos although I'm priced out of the NYC market and where I live in NJ is really getting expensive. I love it when you meet up with Charles even though his apartments are usually even more out of my price range. I have subscribed to his videos as well. But the combination of the both of you in a video really brings out his personality. I wish you both the best and success in the new year!
It's all about the outer boroughs. My sister rents an entire house with a big backyard in Queens for $2500/month. Utilities separate though.
We love Charles
This is Gonna b so Insightful CJ🔥🔥🔥👍n Happy Wednesday😀….
The weird wall-light reminded me of a 1950s department store where I live. I always half-expected the rings to light up in sync with the store elevator.
That loft duplex apartment seems like a great deal compared to the prices on the other apartments in this video.
All were good imo... people need realize the location. Little things like frig not opening is minor. It's nyc DEAL with it )
Charles M has the best apartments!
The faux marble stickers on the cabinet doors in the kitchen looks horrible
It’s the only thing holding those cabinet doors together
😂😂
Always a fun watch when Cash and Charles pair up.
I've always thought that London was quite expensive (and it is)... yet you could rent something practically palatial for that kind of money there, instead of these sad and shabby little dumps. What happened, New York? You were always pricey, but now seem to have tipped the scales into Absurdville.
Yeah but London isn’t even British anymore. Y’all have plenty of your own problems 😂 I love top gear and doctor who and David Attenborough and all of those guys. But whoever runs your country obviously hates you
Cash, I'm a little disappointed in you. Know that I'm one of your biggest fans and I've watched your videos from the very beginning; when you used to do only 3 videos a week. I miss seeing you run down the stairs at your previous office.
Anyhew, in the past, if you opened the apt door and the apt was in bad condition with debris everywhere, you would turn around and go to another apt. It wasn't sanitary for you to walk around that filth.
Having said that, I agree with you in saying the apt has potential.
Please give us a second tour of the apt once it's been cleaned up.
The third apt, Charles's listing for $4,450 is Absolutely Fabulous!
I miss those stair runs too😊
Great video with you and Charles! You guys really vibe! 🙌🏼🙌🏼
Every time I watch one of these videos I am forever grateful for the closets in my house.
You must be living in my old house!
Lucky!
why am i addicted to watching this TH-cam channel ? 😍 Happy new year everybody
🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
The first two apartments - LOL. Just what I want, a dangerous gas meter in my living space and hot to the touch pipes. I wouldn't have expected in-unit or in building laundry for the first two places, but what about the last two? I would expect at least to have had building laundry in both of those buildings.
Mr. Jordan's videos are always fun -- and make me so happy to not have to live in NYC.
Agreed. I watch his vids to fantasize a little about NYC life but with the cost of living... pass.
I like the third one! Like being able to go outside and it's spacious enough.
Once again, you and Charles made me laugh, which we all need. Your apts were a little creepy, but did have good potential if they'd put enough $$ into it- you guys keep up the great fun you provide for us and have a great New Year!
I thought the 4450 apartment was nice and it had the courtyard even though it's shared. There's a lot of room to move around. The first 2 apartments are a hot mess and the 4 th. is so expensive .
I'm glad Charles came to the rescue. The first two apartments are not worth it. The apartment with the bay windows is the best.
You and Charles are the dream team!
Charles always has the best apartments! You two are a great team. Those apartments at the start of the video......yikes!
Cash and Charles,, an unbeatable team.♥
0:48 quoting Monty Python...."run away...run awayyyy"
Cash your sarcasm is a breath of fresh air. Lol.
Love your work
Charles is such a good sport! That weird loft one was so cool!
I love these apartment hauls😂
😂🤣
I can smell the carpet on that second building's staircase...
Edit- Definitely not a silverfish. That's a rolly polly/wood bug/carpenter beetle.
You and Mr. Monroe are a great team!!!
Charles has the best apartments. But the price is a lot more.
Hi Cash wish you and your friend a better year in 2023. Stay well and safe. Hope this NYC apt will get repaired and rentable. 👍
So many great places! You and Charles have such a great rapport. I’ve enjoyed watching that.
The first and second apartments, I can see some one hurting them selfs. But with other 2 are way better even tho the rent is on the high side.
$3k for that first apartment is a travesty.
Charles always has objectively better apartments to show but Jordan is objectively better at making videos so together they make for a great viewing experience
Charles' apartments all look the same...but his presence is still cool
I DO love the Loft Duplex though..roomy!
The last two apartments were the nicest, for sure, but the rents on them were criminal considering neither have in-unit laundry.
Charles love your energy man. Happy New Year to both yall :)!!
My fave line….”It’s not that terrible.”
Yeah for $3900 a month that's not exactly a ringing endorsement!
I want to see where Charles lives! I bet it’s NICE. Tour, please!
Yes he does but they way more expensive 😔
I like when you and Charles work together. Your make a good team.
Charles always shows great places.
man, you are a great salesman to be able to spin garbage apartments into a room at the Pierre Hotel...lol...damn you're good. lol
Love these videos Cash! I’m currently in NYC for the first time! Taking on board so much of your video knowledge! Thank you
Wow, that open walkway to the A/C is an accident waiting to happen! Those first 2 were pretty bad. I love the piles of trash down the stairs.
Me "starts to panic"
Charles "shows up, all is well" ♥
Love the toilet seat in the living room of the first apartment. I'm surprised Cash didn't make fun of that.
Yup, it looked like one spacious bathroom...
Awesome video dude, and I loved the music in this one, reminds me of being a kid again in the 80s !
How do ppl survive paying that much rent. That shit is crazy.
"...in its current state, no one is going to rent it...." It's NYC. The building could be on fire, and someone would still rent it!
o.m.g. That first apartment! How to make a silk purse out of a sow's ear. That 'Do not Enter' sign should be paid attention to. Hey, Cash, I know you're boundlessly optimistic, but, I just don't think so: kitchen: no counter space, fridge, stove, sink, just the basics, no sink sprayer, down-at-the-heel appliances. A mattress up in the grungy loft space where you can't even stand up? The toilet lid on the floor adds a certain je ne sai quoi! Oh, goody, a creepy basement space with a door leading out to wherever the serial killer is lurking! Apartment #2: Packages tossed down a flight of stairs, Sign: 'Danger Hazardous Voltage Can Cause Death' , lovely view of the bathroom from the kitchen with it's beaten up cabinets, bugs come as an extra feature, don't you love it when the door hits the bathtub? Are there enough red flags yet? Apt. #3 is over the top & at $4,450.00, I suppose it's a bargain of some sort.. but it's been badly renovated and re-configured, despite it's double height it's so chopped up there's actually very little usable living space! Charles quote of the day re: the fridge: 'it clears enough!' Apt. #4 : strangely configured living-room, kitchen is nice but must it be squashed in a closet-like space? For $5,250.00 I want less chintzy closet doors! And finally, Apt. #5 : $8,900.00 for this luxury unit, + electricity, + utilities, nice features and finishes, laundry?, but why must it be so generic? Sleepless in Toronto
Man, Charles definitely passes the vibe check ! 👌🏻😩💙😂 he saved the whole video & I love how all the places he showed had a Christmas tree.
I know everyone thought the first apartment was awful but if it was cleaned up and a couple things fixed I’d say it was so unusual that I’d love it. Also, your bedroom goes to the laundry room and I like that too!
Charles apartments were the best though and it’s a huge plus if your landlord is a good one! It means he listens to your issues and fixes things when they break! I’m glad I live in a city where I don’t have to worry about whether my appliances can fully open up and be cleaned! I wonder how Charles cleaning people cleaned that drawer in the fridge!
I kinda of liked that too.
Yay! Charles ALWAYS brings the best homes!!!
Btw congrats on the new baby . Merry belated Christmas and Happy New year
This was my favorite episode yet! And Charles is amazing!!!!! His apartments were unreal for semi-affordable NYC unfnreal.
You and Charles have way too much fun! LOL No, I've never had a Real Estate Agent tell me they would fix/replace stuff if the landlord didn't. Course I don't rent anymore....but for 25+ years, I did.
Charles saves the Day 🏆
Ohhhh...hell NO!
Your videos are so fascinating, keep them coming.
For once I’m happy not to live in a New York the first two gave me the shivers.
Charles is a crack-up! Love his enthusiasm.
