Apartment Tour Los Angeles | What $1,600 Gets me in LA | 1 bedroom
VloĆŸit
- Äas pĆidĂĄn 2. 07. 2024
- Welcome to my tranquil bungalow in the middle of Los Angeles. I pay $800 to share a spacious 1 bedroom. My interior design style is a mix of chic and mid-century modern. Most of my furniture is thrifted or second-hand. I don't have a particular look or theme. I create my space with pieces that bring me warmth and joy. Overall, I want to feel cozy when I'm home. đâïž

FAQ
1. Location:
I would love to disclose, but for safety reasons please respect my privacy. đđœ
2. Rent Price:
This place has been in my family's possession since I was born. I don't want to get anyone's hopes up. You most likely will not find this price/size in the city of LA.
3. Couch:
I found this gem on Facebook marketplace. It's originally from IKEA, but it's discontinued.
Hope that helped! Thank you for watching đâ€
Im glad i own & not rent in los angeles county đ . So, basically that apt is "rent controlled" until they can jack up the rent via a new renter. I know exactly where it is cause ive seen you before đ no worries.... privacy locked in
is the price per month? i dont know how rent works
@@EL-ik5ff yes per month :)
Who is the ceramic cigarette artist? I need that
I also have an apartment in LA thatâs pretty awesome, I pay $1650, come have a tour!
Thanks for your transparency and sharing your space with us đ€ Iâm from LA but stayed in Texas after graduating college. Your space is super cute and I love how you furnished the living room and dining area. Itâs also really dope how you made the closet space into a little desk area.
Thank you for watching! đ„°đ„°
What part of Texas? :)
âWhy would people collect dishes, so weird⊠anyway here are a bunch of cameras we put here that donât workâ I died đđ€Ł
Haha cameras are the new dishes
$1600 here in LA? That's good! That's more then a good deal!
Yeah the more I look around at other apts I see this.
@@amandapluma yeah I'm apartment hunting right now and I can't find anything of quality below 2200$ and even those have reviews all mentioning cockroach nightmares.
She said it was rent controlled
Exactly what I thought! How'd she find that?
@@permaculturemom9848 in video she mentioned it was rent controlled. So that only means its located somewhere near or in Beverly Hills. BH is the only rent controlled city in los Angeles that I am aware of.
Congrats on your apartment, it's so cute and cozy! And thanks for keeping it real too
Thanks girl! Always love đ§Ą
I love several things about your apartment, the hardwood, the built-in hutch in your dining room that right there on so much storage. I love the fact that you did not show your bedroom you need your own private space. You have a lot of space there for the price point and have washer and dryer in your unit. That's a plus thank you for sharing
ahhh the way you decorated it đ
Thanks love!! đ
Super cute! I love the built in shelf, your style and props to your man for getting creative with that closet! My bestie is in LA paying less, but in a studio. This place seems like a charming deal! Sometimes apts with a lot of light get hottttt and you use more A/C
Thank you! What part of LA is she in?
It def is a deal, but sun = happiness D;
I love what you're doing in your home soooo cute & definitely cozy âĄ
Thanks girl đ„șâ€ïž Iâm glad the vibes came through lol
The vibes are untouched!
Vibes, immaculate âšđ
Love your place. It is a whole entire vibe!
Thank you! That's the goal đđđ§đœââïžâš
I love the charm and character your apartment has.
I like how normal this apartment looks. Very nice! Beautiful decor.
Thank you :) I like charm over modern.
Thanks for showing us your apartment. Looks super cute and cozy and I really appreciate seeing realistic and affordable living spaces as opposed to super modern overly staged apts
Omfg I used to live in the exact same unit in 2016/2017 and it was $2100 not including utilities đ§ That's $500 more 5-6 years ago. I'm not sure how the rent could have dropped to $1600 in 2022.
Rent this low for a large 1 bed with in-unit washer/dryer hardwood floors, yard in back, in a trendy neighborhood is not the norm in LA. Just FYI for anyone looking at this video for proof that LA rent can be low like this.
lol crazy! You probably lived in the one next to us? This unit has been in my family since 1995. We're under rent control.
Stunning apt! I love the orange lighting in your bf's office. Re: that brown humidifier/AC thing in the dining room. You can fashion a wood covering with wood pieces/slats, or using peices if wood from a palate (you can often find free palates in the back of stores outside or by the garbage. Turn it into the bar or something similar.
This is a great idea! Sadly the manager won't allow anything near or on top. It's a fire hazard bc the pilot is always on. :(
omg this is my apartment goals
thanks love
Thank you for your realism đđŸâĄ.
Hi Amanda! I must admit, I did start watching your channel because of the notary content but Iâm loving the lifestyle content as well! On that note⊠your hair looks amazing! Iâd love to see how you style your hair (blow dry etc⊠;) Apartment is looking fly! Congrats đ
thank you Sandie, I appreciate your support đ𧥠I'll definitely do a video on that! :)
Not me thinking $1400 for my 670 sq ft 1 bedroom in Buckhead/Atlanta is a steal đ Girl you betta realize how BLESSED you are! Also your design style is simply beautiful. You MADE that apartment what it is. Super stylish & cozy. I love this!
lol that is a steal!! I know, you're right! Thank you, that means a lot. I put a lot of my energy into thisâ€
I pay 1299 in Buckhead 770 sq.ft. got lucky no rent increase for 2 years due to displacement from dunwoody.
I'm amazed at the use of the closet for the office. Very cool!
I love the setup it is unique!!
Wow so cute!!!
Yes, enjoy and appreciate your Space, some folks don't have a Space! Thanks for sharing.
I love your apartment and you have it decorated so cute! đ„°
So stunning, is so nice to see real places.
Thank you!! :)
I'm going to live by myself for the first time and your decorations inspired me so much!
I love that! I'm excited for you to decorate lol
Remember, don't get all your furniture at once. Collect pieces you like over time. It makes a difference. đ
Have fun!
Beautiful place! The couch and the dining table were great choices for the space đ
thank you!
@@amandapluma Amanda where's the couch from? :)))
Beautifulâ„ïž
Love the orange couch.
it's the best find I've found on FB marketplace. đ
Love your videos
Thank you! I appreciate it đđœđ
$1600 and washer/dryer??? Giiiiiirl Iâm so jealous
yasss girl đ©
I like these lifestyle types of videos
I really appreciate that 𧥠I like these vids too. I don't feel as limited with what I can create. Thank you for supporting me đ
I aspire to be like you!! I just made the decision to become a LSA and watching your videos gives me so much hope/joy!
I'm so excited for you! It's a journey but well worth it đ good luck!
What is an LSA?
This is a great apartment!
I appreciate that, thank you!
That is a great deal!
super cute and a great deal đđ
Thank you! đ€
Your home is so beautiful
Thank you! đ đ
I lived in LA 20 years ago and had CZcams Existed, I too would have filmed all my move-ins! I lived in some great places and always love the charm you'll find in apartments so not ever thing is cookie cutter! Definitely hard to find a good landlord that takes care of their property too! I used to lease private rentals for a landlord I loved, so I'd rent them out literally within 1 hour of opening the doors because everyone knew the rentals I showed were ON POINT nice!
Your hair!!! đ so pretty, very 70s
Thank you! :)
Love it. You could spray paint your wicker mirror, I suggest glossy black but deep moss green could be cool or whatever color floats your boat.
Such a great idea!!! Thank you :)
This apartment is big !!!!!!
I can tell it's an older apartment which some are really large. Some landlords don't gouge rent and charge enough to cover costs of water, electric property taxes, insurance etc if the mortgage is paid off.
The old owner paid it off years ago. His daughter took over and gouged rent. Our neighbors pay over $2k for the same space.
The sink in the laundryroom is required so thag the washer can empty into it.. some places allow there to be no sink, but there is a higher chance of laundry room flooding... so your county must require the sink.. it reduces insurance costs too...
đđđđ
I love the older houses with the built in cabinets....
Thank you! I think itâs what makes the place âșïž
Wow! Huge location 4 Los Angeles!
Fun video! I really enjoy watching people give tours of their living spaces, an obsession of mine that started a few years back when CZcams became my new best friend! I like your place, good size and a nice flow. What area of L.A. are you in(if you don't mind me asking)? Rent in Southern California is ridiculous and finding a place that doesn't break the bank is hard to do!
Iâm in a similar position. I pay $1700 for a one bedroom in LA and I donât love it but thereâs nothing better for the same price or less so I stay. Youâre place is huge though! Loved the tour!
aww i wanted to see da bedroom
Iâm remodeling it. Iâm hoping to show it soon :)
Pro tip for getting rid of water marks. Take a dish towel and put it on top of the mark. Then get an iron and set it to medium high. Iron on top of the dish towel and the water marks start to disappear. Saw this somewhere and tried it out on my parents dinning table and it totally works.
Edit: My pro tip is specifically for those white ring water marksâșïž
I'll have to try his! Thank you :)
Hi Amanda, love your floors. Yup, Person didnât consider light when design my apartment complex either. I have that same lighting problem. So dark inside. I put on makeup and was outside I had so much blush on. Iâm hour away OC.
Lol noooo thatâs my biggest fear - especially with contour or my foundation not matching haha
What part of OC?
@@amandapluma Iâm in Costa Mesa near Orange County fair and close to Newport Beach and Huntington Beach. Iâm from LA but my mom moved hear for a job many years ago.
Here
@@Ann-lv5dg no way! I'd love to live there for a bit. Laguna Beach is my favorite summer spot. I kinda was in the same position. I'm from LA and we moved to OC (Fullerton) when we lost our house in '08. Do you enjoy living out there compared to LA?
@@amandapluma compared to LA it feels very restrictive because of the high amount of tickets they give out. My friend used to get a ticket every week. I even saw an elderly woman on a wheelchair get a ticket just for crossing the street. Now we have a fly path in our zone itâs so loud! Super noisy area. If I had family in another area I would move. I think people in LA are nicer. Too many grouchy people and Karenâs here, lol.
Thats a great price and footage
Very pretty! I live in LA as well but pay $2200 for a 1B/1Ba, no roommates. Re: the lower comments, I do pay a steeper price to live in a safer and more residential part of the city, but could totally see myself moving to more of a "developing" neighborhood with a roommate or a partner. QOL and rent are mostly inverse here.
Hi
They have covers for radiators perhaps thereâs a cover for your heater.
You could have a little custom cover made foil.
My landlord won't let me put anything on top :(
Nice I like it đ
I suggest that you Cover the Heater? With some kind of a table or diy a cover
I canât put anything on it. Itâs a fire hazard âčïž
Aww the mirror looks very nice tho lol
Your apartment is gorgeous! Just wondering which neighborhood you found an apartment so cheap? And does it have parking ?
Your apartment is a nice size for the price. Good luck finding the square footage in a new place in Los Angeles for a decent price.
Yeah Iâm noticing that as I look :/
Wow! $1600. Good deal in LA. I pay $1900 for a one bedroom (900 SF) in the Robertson and Olympic area. CUTE apartment! Great use of space.
It is rent controlled, the house has been in the family. This video is misleading
The style, size, and price of the unit is looking 8th district. I have always gotten more bang for my buck in the part of LA. Love the decor
Very similar.
Thank you! â„ïžđ«¶đœâșïž
DO NOT MOVE OUT!!!! into you get a house it really doesn't get any better than this. Especially in LA
This is really nice for the price
can't complain at all lol
Hello babe I love this blog. Can you pls provide link to your new office desk! Thank You đđŒ
wow! This is what I pay for a 1 bedroom in Houston and it's SO tiny. I'm happy for you because that's a lot of space!
Thanks girl â„ïž
Whereâs the couch from? I love it! And is it comfy?
Ikea, but we got it off FB marketplace. Yes, super comfy!!
Super huge and it looks like a house not an apartment. You have a really great space â€
Thanks you đ
It's a built-in buffet. It doesn't collect dishes, it stores dishes. Back in the day, kitchens didn't have the storage they have now.
Idk my kitchen has a lot of storage space đ€ Built in buffet makes sense though, especially being in the dinning room. These ppl were fancy lol
Hey! I love your place! Where did you get your hat/purse holder that was on the wall? Its so cute!
Hey girl :) The rack is from Urban Outfitters. I was gonna send a link but I can't find it in my past orders :/ I think it's discontinued.
Nice! Where is the pendant light from in your cozy nook? Iâve been looking for one just like that!

That's phillberry on the wall shelf. The white chubby chef dough. Lololol
where is your couch from ?? :00
Where in LA is $1600?
Thatâs what I wanna know lol
Super cute đ«¶
thanks love!
I can't believe the size of your apartment and the rent!! In NYC, 1600 would get you an 8x10 room.
can you share how you came into something so low? do you have to take over someoneâs lease for rent control?
What neighborhood is it though?
Love your style! Iâm considering moving to California in a few months and need all the tips I can get. Would you be able to recommend some safe, clean (not infestedâŠread too many horror stories about certain apartments), and affordable (under $2K month) apartments in or outside of LA?
alexandra gator built a box around someones ac unit maybe you could do that for the thing in your dining space
I would enclose that AC unit or whatever that is with something a little more decorative and renter friendly
I pay less than $1500 for a 1 bd with a small office in the Highland Park - Eagle Rock area 2 blocks from where the bars, restaurants, stores, bagels and coffee shops. We often walk to go out in town. It's on a fairly quiet street with plenty of trees. I have both a front yard and a huge grass backyard and a garage. It's a duplex so I only have one neighbor that is a close friend. The best part is its rent control. I've been here 5 years and don't plan on leaving anytime soon.
Great apartment! Subscribed!! Be well. â€ïž
Thank you for subscribing â€ïž you too loveđ„°
I pay $1,570 in LA. Nice size one bedroom, 2 large closets, parking spot, 1930âs charming building, pretty secure building. Cons are, old building means super loud from street noise, poor insulation, can hear my downstairs neighbor like sheâs practically in my apt, no dishwasher, nothing renovated/redone. But for my budget itâs what I can get!
It's like my mortage in a rural Canadian town đ¶ L.A. for the same price đ i'm moving in!
In MS you can own a 4 bedroom 2 bath 2300sqft for $1300. Owning is a great way to go.
Why didn't you show the bedroom?
Cute place
thank you!
what neighborhood is this?
What area is this? Going towards the south?
why were people collecting dishes? because back in the day dinner parties were a huge thing. you had to have plenty of dishes for all your company. big families were also a thing. needed even more dishes for all your kids (especially if they were clutzy and broke them while washing the dishes after dinner) and people tended to cook at home more often. lots and lots of dishes. it was pretty common to get a set on your wedding. or in my family.... you inherited them from grandparents who had passed on. i have my father in law's mother's dishes from when he was a kid (apparently mother in law was given them when his mom and dad passed away. but she didn't like them. kept them boxed up. when father in law passed away she gave all those danged plates, bowls and saucers to my husband.... they're STILL packed away.... i guess my oldest son can have them when he moved out.) they're actually really pretty. way too fancy for my hamfisted hooligans to use on a daily basis.
the dishes we use daily are from walmart!! no one gives a damn if they break!
1600$ what area? Lol Iâm paying almost 2000$ in Inglewood California right across from the form đ© btw I love your place đ
What part in L.A.?
1. $1600 in LA is a Steal
2. $1600 in LA for THAT size of a spot is a STEAL
3. I need something like this lol
Lol sending good energy that you find a good deal đ€đœ

Spotted Flux by Orion Carloto on your shelf so now I know we were destined to be friends
1600 is so good! out of curiosity, how many square feet is the apartment?
I'm estimating a little over 1,000.
Damn $1600 i pay 1500 for my 4 bedroom house here in Texas!
But who wants to live in trashy Texas?
:(((( *cries in zillenial
Interesting
