NYC Just Raised Everyone’s Rent…

Just when you thought NYC couldn't get any less affordable, it does. New rules designed to make apartments more comfortable will, according to critics, undoubtably result in rent increases passed along to struggling renters.

Shoplift $999 per store per day = not a crime. Protest NYC raising rents = jail

I feel like I’m being charged extra to live in a reality where my biggest accomplishment is surviving another day.

Last year I was told air conditioning causes global warming, now the same people are telling me we need air conditioning because global warming.

I’m a NYC native, born in 1962. I moved to Texas as soon as I graduated college 40 years ago. It was the best decision I ever made.

They obviously want the landlords out so they can buy the buildings cheap, it's a ruse.

Wait... $7200 per month? Are you kidding me? "Escape from New York" is starting to look oddly prophetic.

I bought my place in 1987 for $83, 500 and could easily afford it on what I made. Today I couldn't afford to buy my place even if I had 4 other people in on it. It's now valued at $2, 500, 000. Absolutely insane.

I moved our whole family out of Manhattan in 2020 far away into the country. Because all of this was foreseeable. It’s like watching the greatest city in the world get destroyed on purpose by the people trusted to protect it

Landlords will only rent apartments if they are making money. The more that you make a landlord pay, the higher the rent will go. Politicians are so out of touch with real life.

They'll push for all of these air conditioners, then have nothing but power outages for the rest of the yr.

This is an example of REAL journalism. I can’t say this enough. You’re not giving us a skewed, political bias. You’re discussing both sides of the issue. You’re giving us actual facts and figures. I applaud this!

[mtpayne]

I used to watch your review NYC apartments. So pleased to see you providing the people with information! Thank you for sharing.

This channel went from real estate to real investigative journalism.

$7200 for monthly rent is absurd even for NYC.

[MR_ii_]

$7200 a month?! Im surprised buildings haven't been burned down to the ground! Absolutely ridiculous!

[Justmewatchingavideo]

Cash, it’s so refreshing to have you tell us what’s really happening and not just what the AP puts out that all other news media just repeats.

[paulipock]

I can see the 70s coming back in NYC. When landlords couldn't make money off their buildings they found a solution. They burned the buildings down and just walked away with the insurance settlement.

My rent for a 2 BED/1 BATH was going up to $1900. Moved back in w/my parents. If you have to pay 2K+ for rent you will never get financially ahead. Wages don't keep up with rent increases.

EDIT 8/24/2024 - THIS RENT PRICE IS IN UTAH IN A SMALLER CITY

[bertrenolds]

They FINALLY protest something normal and NOW they're arrested? WTF!

[gelflingfay]

When people leave places like this, they move to places like where I live... and many bring their politics and crime with them... it kind of sucks.
