oh god that means it has a communal bathroom š
-
And kitchen?!
-
Even larger NYC apartments frequently don't include a kitchen for whatever reason. I know if I worked there I'd likely just always get carry-out since it's much more reasonably priced than in other large US cities despite the salaries being so much higher.
-
Coin laundry in the basement with 2 washers and a dryer that is only half functional. For 10units.

Vertical storage and a twin bed can make it work. But the lack of a private bathroom and kitchen is a hell no from me.

This makes me think of Bender's apartment and I'm just waiting for them to open a "closet door" into the rest of the apartment.
Anyway, death to landlords.

I am getting ready to buy a house for the first time in my life, and I am seriously considering getting something with a potential rental unit in it, and then renting it out at a very reasonable price. Gotta start somewhere? š„

That's a noble thought, but when you start seeing the cost of upkeep and actually repairing things the right way, you'll end up just like the rest of them.

Don't look up what some countries would consider "an illegally small prison cell".
-
That looks identical to the clothes closet back when I worked as a waiter
-
That is a closet.
-
My current closet in my bedroom is larger than this.
-
-
This is smaller with less features than a prison cell
-
Its smaller than the laundry room in my 2000 sqft 4 bedroom house that I pay $1100 a month for.
(In methtown, OH... and the house is over 120 years old, still has knob and tube wiring, the plaster ceilings in the bedrooms are threating to fall down at any moment, and it's lined with asbestos and lead paint, but at least i have my own bathrooms and kitchen!)

facts, this coat closet is worth 1200/mo because its literally right next to the world famous burnt out car all those homeless crack addicts had an orgy in
and right down the street from the train station where that cop killed someone for hopping a turnstile
and right outside the building is a needle return that has no lock on it so you get the perk of free albeit second hand heroin needles

Nothing some galvinized square steel and eco friendly wood veneer can't fix

In 2020 during the summer I was feeling pretty depressed due to obviously Covid but also my father dying and a lot of riots were happening nearby. I was generally not in a good place and wanted a change to get out of the rut I was in.
I decided to move into an apartment exactly like this but near the beach. When I say near I mean I could see the ocean from my window. It was exactly this size and configuration. It cost $900 a month back then.
The problem wasnāt as much the size as the people you live with. It attracts either young adults who want to party or older people with big life problems, like addiction, divorce, mental health issues.
The place I lived was an old wooden building so it was very easy to hear my neighbors. I didnāt sleep well the entire time I lived thereā¦
The communal bathroom was constantly dirty despite having a service come in daily and they had laundry room that was constantly backing up and malfunctioning.
The same place today goes for nearly $2k. I lasted two months before moving into a slightly larger place with a private bath, a left after my lease was up a year later.
Living at the beach was great, but Iāll never live in a place like this again.

Where is this?
-
New York City, and probably a really desirable part of town
-
-
At least the ceilings are pretty tall.
