  • In today’s video, we went apartment hunting in Calgary, Alberta! We toured 6 different basement apartments (all 1bed1bath's with an approximate budget of $1300/month) and found our new home.. empty apartment tour at the end;) I made sure to include some tips for any newcomers & will happily answer all appropriate questions in the comments. I am beyond grateful for my new home and cannot wait to start this new journey. Welcome to my 2024 moving series! Much love ♡

    JW what made you want a basement apt? Is it just a more affordable option?
    why do they only put carpet in the bedrooms?
    Inflation is crazy because these prices use to be the cost of a 2 bedroom in Calgary about 5-7 yrs ago.
    I definitely think the one you chose was the best one, congratulations and thanks for sharing.

      @@oromtitiwbo5078 a basement apartment is definitely the most affordable option nowadays! when i first moved to calgary 3 years ago.. you could get a nice apartment downtown with amenities for $1300! it’s insane how fast things have changed. there are definitely some cons with living in a basement apartment but it’s best for saving $$$! thank you🫶🏾

      @@oromtitiwbo5078 i have a video coming up soon where i speak on that but here are some examples 🩷
      pros: less expensive, typically have everything included, easier to get approved, private enterance
      cons: it’s dark unless you find one with multiple windows - lack of vitamin D, upstairs neighbours can be loud, anything that goes on upstairs will happen to you as well (fire alarms, water leaks), can get claustrophobic
      Overall great choice to save money, I would just suggest finding a place that you realllly love and try to think of everything beforehand (natural lighting, room for growth, etc)

      But thank you so much for taking the time to explain💗 I think those are all great reasons. I def love natural light but I need an easy approval🤣. Will look into this and I am subscribing!

    Do you have any tips on how to not get scammed on FB marketplace?

    • @aaliyahmichel
      @aaliyahmichel  Před 25 dny

      @@macynvogt alwaysss check their accounts! see how active are, their photos, comments & most importantly.. if their account was created in 2024 AVOID. i also look out for spelling mistakes and if they ask for shipment or weird payment requests, i avoid as well! lastly, never send any money before seeing the product. if they ask me for a deposit i just move on.
