Living In A $2,140/Month Historic Flat In London, UK | Unlocked
Have you experienced a significant rent hike in NYC? Struggling to find an affordable place? We would love to talk to people who are going through this for a video. Please email makeitcasting@nbcuni.com
Yes! $1,100 increase which was 2K over our prepandemic pricing. :( greed is a terrible thing.
For those outside the uk, a central London studio / one bed is 1.5k or more for something decent. This really is a steal for this standard, location and size! Beautiful home 😍👌🏿
Greenwich is not really London.
Thank you! And Greenwich is London zone 2. It’s a London borough 😊
@@butterflymoon6368 yes, it’s outer borough of London to be exact. So houses are way cheaper there cause it’s consider county of Kent.
@@TheFancyNancy Now everything is in 'London'. They even call parts of Essex and Kent London.
I'm sorry y'all really believe that 😔
Every family has that one person who will break the family financial struggles I hope you become the one 🙏

@@darlingtonsam3614 You're right, Fear is one of the factors that hinder most persons to invest into crypto, most persons say ignorance..
When you invest in crypto you are buying days you don't need to work
Now is the best time to purchase and invest in bitcoin, stop procastinating
I'm enjoying working under a platform that brings good returns in my life and I've been making my weekly returns without stress all in crypto
Finally a UK video! Please make more such UK based videos of people in London and other major cities in the UK as well like Liverpool, Manchester, Glasgow, Edinburgh, etc
Would also be good to get places in less fancy areas.
I want to see more people who are making it in Manchester UK
“My husband loves to buy books he never reads.”
I feel seen, lol.
You're going to get to those books, one day.
said with shade hahaha
I live in Greenwich and I knew immediately whereabouts this house/flat conversion place is. It’s a very well known building near Greenwich park. For London - Greenwich is one of the best kept secrets for a reasonable priced area that is quite central, well connected, with plenty of green spaces and fair spaced period flats/houses. If you’re not bothered about not living on a “SW” post code - this is the last frontier of where you can actually buy a reasonable size home in london. But beware - with the growing size of Canary Wharf, and the Elizabeth line now open - it’s ‘affordability’ won’t last long!
Tell me about it! Every time I see articles about Greenwich/Blackheath being the best place to buy for young families I cry on the inside. We’re crossing our fingers to buy in SE, hopefully closer to elephant and castle actually because we’d like to be on a tube line.
Beautiful Black Afrikan Couple! I love the interior design of their home ❤️
Hoooooow did you find that in London?!?! That’s a bargain 👌🏽
The estate agent reached out to me to let me know the flat was available. Getting to know estate agents is key 😉
@@TheFancyNancy Well done, realy nice apartment with a garage.
For London…that is a bargain. I also got a property July 2021 which was 2 bed 2 bath in zone 2 for about £500 cheaper than it would normally be and on a two year lease, so we avoided the recent hikes.
Not sure I’d choose the flat with windows you can’t open and separate toilet / bathroom but it’s a gorgeous property in a beautiful London borough.
Do you like it?😊
Gorgeous apartment and so well done! Congrats to you two and wishing you the best when you decide to buy a home. Loved this video!
Thanks so much ❤️❤️❤️
£1750 per month for a 2.5 bedroom in Greenwich is a steal!
2024 the rent must of doubled.
This is a very ancient, weird yet nice looking home. My biggest issue is the windows not being able to open and you can't request them to be open.. like that is weird!
Fresh air is everything!
We can, we just have to wait for the contractor who does listed building windows to fix them 😩. So far we just have one window that opens in the living room. Everywhere else the in the flat we can open the windows.
@@TheFancyNancy ooh okay cool. Fair enough. At least the possibility of it being fixed is there
@@TheFancyNancy your house is beautiful 😍
@@ifeomaomologe171 thank you ❤️❤️
@@lillyjames2934 no, we’re planning on buying in West London 😊
1750 for that appartment is a steal my lord congratulations!
Landlord sees this and jacks the rent up 😂
Then lists like: As seen on CNBC Make It. Lol!!
@@amsthe3rd and then himself/herself comes on CNBC Make it with a feature - How this smart landlord makes money with rental properties 😂
@@rahulchawla20 LMAO! And the network can have someone "React." It'll be a Doctor Strange infinite universe loop haha.
@@amsthe3rd 🤣
I live in London and this is such an AMZING deal wow
I'm glad you love it😊
They seem so involve this feels like such a healthy relationship , so great to see
The bathrooms are dreadful but otherwise, if accurate, it’s a steal!
If a place to rent has lots of competition. How does someone negotiate 400 dollars off the asking price? Wouldn't someone else just pay the asking price?
@@Fivetimesthree in a perfect world sure but If London is like many other cities in the world right now which are facing rental shortages. The asking price is the starting point for negotiations. Good for them for getting a good deal. Would be a miracle now in this current climate.
I love that other parts of the world operate different from the USA. Here, it's all about who has more money. Other places appear to take great consideration into the actual people that they're opening their property to.
Maybe it wasnt a bargain?
@@importantlookingpirate her rent is really cheap for what it is in London.
Maybe landlord prefers good people over a few more pounds. He might’ve felt very confident that these two will not cause any trouble in a historical building with so many city regulations to adhere by.
That apartment and price is unbelievable!!!
Love checking out how others make it abroad! These different perspectives teach so much about the cost of living. Thanks for sharing!!
Her skin is INCREDIBLE. So beautiful.
This flat makes me want to move to London
We Live 1 bedroom apartment in Long Island City New York $1900 per month including utilities which is fair.
Honestly, that sounds like a bigger bargain than the place featured in the video lmao
@@rbr0188 We're based in NYC too. You got yourself a great deal!
Do you plan to move out?
Your businesses will make you rich but your investments will make you wealthy. We all deserve to be rich and have financial freedom. I pray everyone here becomes extremely successful.

Investing in crypto is the most profitable investment due to its current rise, huge profits and future benefits.
I was able to get my first luxury flat in Mayfair in June 2020 for almost £450 cheaper than its value and I stayed for two years. When I ended the tenancy two months ago and there were viewings for it, the flat was snapped up within 30hrs despite the price jumping by £450
Absolutely loving that for them!
"My husband is a fan of buying books that he doesn't read." He's going to get to them one day.
I love London!!!! I’m going back someday for sure!!
$500 a month in utilities 🤦🏾♂️
I KNOW RIGHT!!!
high utility bills but if they bought, far lower property taxation vs USA as an example. you would only need to pay stamp duty as a one off and then very very low property taxes - usually around 4 figures a year vs. US's more typical 5 figures a year for an equivalent property. i guess it would be a case of what's easier to hold onto long term
I'm sure they don't spent that much in utilities as that includes council tax which is easily a few hundred pounds
Most of it is council tax, we’re in band E so it’s high. Water, internet and flat insurance are quite low. Gas + electricity is £200/mo.
Finally some international episodes
Great video! Loved to see your cosy home♥️😍 @The Fancy Nancy
Thank you ❤️❤️
Love her living room artwork
Shout out from Vancouver Canada. My wife and I have long term plans to move to Europe as well. That is an amazing flat for such a good price. I think you are paying a fraction of how much you would pay in Toronto lol
Yeah, Toronto prices are insane these days 😩. Where in Europe are you planning on moving to?
@@TheFancyNancy most likely Italy 😁
But Vancouver is so nice!
What a steal! That looks like a beautiful space :)
I like these videos.
Just curious, are people paid to be interviewed by CNBC?
I live in a mud house somewhere in Africa, someone please ask CNBC to holla at me!
Tell me they earn Atleast 6000 dollar a month to able to afford this apartment
they earn at least 6000$ dollars per month
Making money is not just a science, but also an art. it is 30% science and 70% art. a fellow creator
I love how everything is her ‘favourite’ you can tell she loves it all😊
I do ☺️
Beautiful flat, great location being next to a park, and so much storage!
Please do smaller and other major big cities outside london
It's a very nice place, but what will they do, when the landlord charges market rate, when it's time to renew the lease?
Thank you! There are laws in the UK that protect tenants against exorbitant increases. Our lease is 18 months and we have a clause in our contract to extend the lease for another 18 months with no increase. But hopefully by then we would have bought a home 😊
So with all bills they pay around 2500£? I guess they both make minimum 2,000£ which leaves them with 1500£ disponsable income (which is amazing) Now imagine they would just move a bit away from central london and they can get the same for 1500£
We’re very comfortable and could live in central for more if we wanted to. But we like south London because it’s closer to family 😊
Her accent is interesting. It actually seems a really good deal for London with all that space. Usually you're in a shoebox. I love historic features too
Perfect beautiful apartment for a queen and king Toronto couple in London 👑👑
Charming house and very sweet couple. The little space under the stairs is for storage and is not unusual. It's just this is an older house so it looks dingy and frightening. The pantry looked strange.
Nicely done, you got a result. (From another south Londoner🙂)
She is cool, I like her vibe and what a cute couple too
Thank you ❤️❤️
Beautiful apartment and couple. The Wray and Nephew at the bar, it should be by the rubbing alcohol 🤣
As a Jamaican I peeped that 😅
Funner fact: Paris’ weather is definitely much better than London’s. I’m presently in Paris and I can tell that for a fact. I’ve only had 1 day of grey-ey londony weather here.
Fun fact: What you said about Paris is completely wrong. Summer in Paris can definitely give you a heart attack from the heat. 😅
I love Greenwich and the surrounding area, its just gorge. Its also where Thor was filmed!
Didn’t know Thor was filmed here. I know they film Bridgeton here, we often see them film in the spring
@@TheFancyNancy Yes! at The Old Royal Naval College
To be honest I could never be bothered making big changes to a rental and having to change it all back again when leaving. I would save that for a place I've bought
Tip: for the country your thinking about moving to, check Facebook marketplace for people selling furniture in the country you want to move to, you can save a lot on furnishings.
Beautiful 🥰 home. Good attitude. Only the toilet being far away . I love your kitchen wall paper n lighting. I love that u r in agreement in your home 🏠. U are smart n courteous too !
How is the dungeon different from the utility room? Haha, I think it's cool. I think a lot of them were just use for storing coal back in the day
Cute apartment. Beautiful couple.
As someone neither in america or the uk, these figures are just insane to me lol
8:48 that's the place where Harry Potter lived for 10 years and was sometimes locked in as punishment by his uncle and evil cousin 😭😭😭
London is as expensive as NYC.
noooo its not
Utilities are really expensive, at least compared to what I Pay in Sweden
Beautiful! Luv your style🙌🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Thank you ❤️
Wow so much space and a garage that’s a steal wow way bigger than what I grew up in south east London
So nice to see a London episode.
Love it, in every way. God bless
London is the best city in europe! Great city great people
i don't find the people friendly in London difficult to make friends
@@GiTRR really? In which area do you talk about?
While Parisians aren't the friendliest, IMO Paris is the best city in Europe.
@@josephinebournes8212 Paris is a literal toilet!
It's a nice flat but you should buy now, nothing beats having your own space where you can put a toilet where you want and get windows to open! Just bought and I'll never look back. You might think you can stay there for two years, but we've been evicted every year no fault eviction. Landlords will be evicting everyone before the no fault evictions come through to get more rent in this market. Best of luck but honestly just buy now, interest rates don't matter when you're currently paying someone else's mortgage
Such a gorgeous flat!!!❤️❤️ #proudsissy
Thanks my love ❤️❤️❤️
Economic elites with assets and high incomes can flit across countries with such ease!
Merci pour cette visite Kopine ! Hâte de prendre un tea time avec toi xx🤩
On t’attend ❤️❤️
Love this!
Hard enough to make it in San Francisco Bay I’m paying 4k for a 2 bed 2 bath
She said interest rates are high. N tge US, rates are higher than they were a year ago, but a year ago they were historically, super low. They are still low now, but I believe they are going to increase even more, and historically they still are very low now. Is London's interest rates very different than the rates in the US? I figured they'd be very comparable.
Canada is so nice though! I'd be living there haha. Guess the grass is always greener
Nah, London is way better.
Landlord? So they're renting? How are you allowed to put shelves up in a rented place here in London (ish - it's Greenwhich)????? That's normally a renting no-no.
Living room shelves were there when we moved in. Kitchen shelves, we had express permission to change them (as we didn’t like the previous ones) before signing the lease. 😊
Amazing apartment.
Not looking forward to the rising cost of gas and electricity.
Loved seeing this. By the way where did you purchase your dress with the African bright print? I love it ❤Best of wishes
Thank you and it’s from GrassFields
Wonderful place! They captured a unicorn.
What was that video about? I was mesmerised at how beautiful that woman was.
If there was lots of competition, how would they have been able to negotiate the rent down? Sounds sus to me
It feels like a village or country town within London
I’ll stay in Mexico. 😱
Where in Mexico? Curious about their expat destinations...
Gorgeous! And love the shout out to the wonderfully trashy Love Island! lol
I wonder how much they make collectively. Buying in London is expensive
Enough to be able to afford a property in London 😊.
This is really nice.
$500 a month for bills?! Sheesh and I thought mine were bad
The main picture should show the couple, not just the wife. It's very deceptive to show one person when it's two people (husband and wife). Financial realities for a single woman is very different than a married woman.
From the beginning of the video I mention my husband. Not once does the video allude to me doing this alone.
@@TheFancyNancy you did. Yet the picture of the video just shows you. Not you and your husband.
Thus may not be your fault. Millennial Money has done this a few times before. Its just deceptive in my opinion.
@@BlairCadetabc she doesn’t get to decide the thumbnail, it’s the CZcamsr that does that
I'm a single black woman living in Washington, DC, and I'm doing quite well for myself and so are my peers. In fact, I'm getting ready to close on a new construction town home in December 2022, after paying off six figure student loan debt in 2019. And no, I don't come from money.
The rent is waaayy below market rent!! 😮
That’s so true they definitely got a steal because London very expensive and small
Nice video 👍
At 11:11 What?!
Toronto or Canada are NOT -15 c most of the year, that was a pretty weird thing to say. She's not coming from Nunavut, for god's sake. In the summer Toronto can be +30 c and humid for many days.
I lived in Canada since I was 6 years old and find it cold most of the year. Are summers really hot, yes. But most of the year is cold compared to the UK.
@@TheFancyNancy But where in Canada? Canada is a big country. Southern Ontario is not -15 most of the year. That's a total exaggeration
Amazing couple!
All I need to know is who is the estate agent? 🤔
Lovely couple, lovely home😍
Thank you lovely ❤️❤️❤️
800$ month in Laval basic 1 1/2 how about expansive
Omg she living my dream life 🤍🤍🤍 I just apply for my MBA in London start September so happy 😀 that’s good price
Good luck with business school ❤️❤️
I’m really considering moving to Europe. Love their flat. #lawyerbae
You'll love it, wherever in Europe you decide to settle.
Don’t believe the hype… its not that great after the pandemic. Take it from someone who has lived here on and off since i was 8 years old. Im 28 now and have completed two degree’s medical degrees in the UK. The cost of living crisis is terrible, and wages are just as terrible. Im moving back to America literally after this year.
@@Anthia_ no it depends greatly on which country
That is a steal tbh
This is too good
The pandemic is over though so I'm surprised the rent hasn't gone up a lot
wow two dungeons... I don't know but it seams very proper for an ex lord's House lol also they seem very nice people
