// our Dallas, Texas apartment hunt! I wanted to share a video of our apartment hunt in Texas, showing what you can get in Dallas, Texas for $1700-$2500/month. these are the apartments we saw searching for our new home! these were all self-guided tours, so we didn't need to see it with a leasing agent + we were required to wear masks. I hope you enjoy this apartment hunt, stay tuned for our empty apartment tour here soon!

Let me know what other videos you'd like to see from me! Whether that be more week in my life vlog-style videos, week in my life in Dallas videos, Texas videos, or lifestyle vlogs. Let me know if you'd like to see more finance videos on budgeting, saving, and being financially independent in your 20s! Or more videos of me trying new things for a week, whether that be new skills or habits. Or videos on getting married, planning a wedding, or getting married young!
Can’t wait to see this next chapter in your life, but I’ll definitely miss the nyc vids!
me too, for sure!
it's CRAZY how big of a place you can get in texas compared to NYC with the SAME AMOUNT OF MONEY!!! Honestly I'm thinking of just moving to texas cos nyc is so so expensive to live in!!!
I know! it's crazy
Sam Elle - I’d get out of NYC because they are slowly defunding the police. I’d be scared to live in NYC.
Betsy Ross defunding the police means that part of the huge money that goes toward the police, will go towards funding mental health and senior centers, funding for local education, and low income housing so it won’t make nyc less safe because the police is still getting the largest portion of the money. it doesn’t mean the police is going away. the police isn’t necessary for many situations such as directing traffic or helping the homeless, but that’s one of their responsibilities right now on top of protecting the people from actual criminals.
Jenna Ganth thank you for thoughtfully explaining that. In a kinder way then maybe i would have lol
No. Stay where you are. Don’t need your kind in Texas
These places are stunning!! I’m so excited to see where you end up 😍 love how you paid attention to lighting, that’s always a must.
Dying at these prices!! You’re making me want to do one of these in Charlotte!
Please do one! 💕
ahh I'd love to see Charlotte apartments!
Yes do Charlotte!
I heard Charlotte is nice. Any high rises? How’s the job market?
I honestly love al of the content that you put out! I am finishing up my Master's degree this summer so more videos about being financially independent in your 20s would be great! As well as videos about planning a wedding! 😊💕
thanks for the rec- appreciate it!
Would you consider sharing the names of some of these places since you didn’t end up there? I’m apartment hunting in Dallas and love some of these! Can’t wait for more Dallas content😍
I plan to move to Dallas as well next year wish had names listed would really help my hunting in the future
GIRL I feel like once the virus is over you should do videos checking out different places and comparing their rent. Like different states and countries! It would be fun.
As someone whose lived in dallas all my life all of those apartment seemed mega expensive for me still 😭😭😅😅
My townhome is 1200 a month in North Dallas 3 bedroom, 2 bath and we have a laundry room too. I think we just got lucky because the same style town home where I live is 1400-1600
these were all "luxury" buildings, so they were all pretty pricey! you can definitely get a bigger place for less rent than I showed :)
I’ll be moving to Dallas. I’m looking for a 3 house or townhome to rent less max $1500 what area s do you recommend?
Can’t wait to see the apartment you picked and also how it looks after you decorate it 🤗. I’m so excited for you to be close to your family!
thanks so much Janice!
It’s crazy to think that those exact same apartments in DC/New York would be thousands of dollars more than they are in Dallas! Makes me want to move down south 🙃
I wish apartments here were that nice!! London is so crowded and everything is so small.
Right?? I love London but I am really considering moving to another town :/
I'm from Austin and I was just in Dallas and DANG I really can't believe how cheap it is there even in comparison to Austin!
yes! Austin is really getting up there too
Hailey Danielle I love Austin! My boyfriend and I went for New Years one year, spent a few days there, and we went to Rainy Street! Food was delicious in Austin too! We live in Dallas!😊
Meanwhile I live in Lubbock and pay $410 for a nice house 😂 (the total is 1250 for a big 3 bedroom house, split with my two roommates)
This is actually so crazy to see the difference in quality of apartments for this price range in New York vs Dallas. I obviously knew there were different costs of living but wow 🤯
Girl! I’m so happy for you.. the fact that u can get sooo much more for your money down there is so awesome!! I love nyc but this is so much better than closet sized apartments in the city 😂
I am so excited for you!!! IMO this is such a smart decision for your first year of marriage💕 My husband and I were financial disasters our first year of marriage so I’m glad our rent was so cheap that year lol
haha, feel free to share your finance tips for the first year!!
I love these apartment tours. The only thing that bugs me about the apartments are that it has so much carpet, I prefer everything to be hardwood. Can't wait to see your new place!!💕💕💕
ahh I agree! not a huge carpet fan
I’m moving from SW Washington to Portland, OR soon, and seeing your hunt for an apartment during the pandemic was so helpful!!! I was beginning to feel like I was the only one trying to move during such a difficult time! ♥️
best of luck! the apartment buildings we looked at had really great safety measures in place. we didn't feel unsafe at all- you got this!
I’m gonna miss the NYC vids because living there is my dream, but as a fellow Texan ( hello from College Station) I’m excited to see your content here!
so sad you're leaving nyc, but so excited for you and to see how happy this move makes you : ) where is the white dress from that you were wearing while you were touring ? It's so cute! also, I LOVE the way you do apartment tour videos: it is so easy as a viewer to follow along with each apartment with your voiceovers and clear distinction among the different homes.
it's actually a romper from princess polly! and thank you so much :)
thank you for taking us along with the process! I love how you are transparent and told us the rent☺️🤍So excited for the next chapter in your guys’ life! Best of luck!!! Been watching you since you were in HS so it has been so inspiring following you along on your life journey!
These are all so nice, can’t wait to see the one you picked out. You seem so happy!!!!
thanks Ary!
I’m SO excited for this new stage in your life 💗
Loved to watch this video! I never comment on videos but I just wanted to tell you that this was really well done, perfect length and so entertaining! Can't wait to see what's next to come
Apt #3 was definitely my favorite. Although you don't like them, I LOVE dark hardwood floors!! That view was definitely amazing and I appreciated how big the patio was. I appreciated how much space was in that apartment in general!
Do you know the name of this apartment?
I'm in awe at how big those kitchens are compared to NY!
I grew up in Frisco, TX! The amount of space that you get in the Dallas area for your buck is AMAZING! I can't wait to see what you guys ended up going with. Welcome to Dallas :)
Can't wait to see the apartment y'all ended up choosing! I loved #6. That natural light and all those trees are everything!
thanks Blaine!
It’s so fun seeing a CZcamsr in the same phase of life as me, in the same area too! Yay for apartment shopping!
SO excited for the vids to come and what the future holds for youu !!! ❣️❣️
Congrats on find “the one” girl!! Can’t wait to see your Dallas videos!
Hey girl! I've been watching your nyc videos for a long time and am so excited for yall's new chapter. I'm from Dallas and i cant wait to see all the videos you make here!! ♥️
THANK YOU FOR MAKING THIS VIDEO!!! I'm moving to Dallas in January right after I graduate college and I'm already looking for an apartment. This video was so helpful!! Good luck on your search!
I'm so excited to come along with you in this new chapter of your life! All of the apartments look so beautiful 😍
Looking at apartments is so fun!!! I'm a NY gal through and through but I love seeing what places look like in/around Dallas! (love your top btw!)
So excited for these videos! My husband and I (newlyweds) are apartment hunting right now and are aiming for a townhouse. We live in CT, so rent here is kinda of expensive. The more updated, the more expensive! But to us, it’s worth the money.
thanks so much Kayla! congrats to you and your husband- so exciting :)
I love this video!! I live 3 hours west of Dallas and am moving to the DFW area this month and I'm so excited!! Can't wait for more Dallas blogs!!! YAY!!!! :)
So excited to follow along with your moving process! I've been an subscriber since a little before quarantine started and your content has really helped get me through this challenging time!
awh, so happy to have you here! thank you!
I LOVED this vid Michelle! I'm hoping to move to Dallas in the next few years so this was amazing to see! SO EXCITED FOR YOU
I'm so excited to see this new journey! These apartments are so nice... in Milwaukee (WI) the apartments are not this renovated.
This video is beautifully shot and the background music is perfect! Well done.
I can’t wait to start filming my own apartment hunting vlogs soon! So inspiring!
Ugh! I love watching these types of videos!! So exciting! There were so many cute ones!! We're excited to see your new place
yessss I love apartment vlogs! moving into mine in a few days, these are so satisfying!
I lived in Uptown with a downtown view in Dallas for $1400 for a two bed two bath (978 sq feet). Walking distance to all the uptown restaurants. Just moved 7 miles north of downtown Dallas and pay $940 for a one bed one bath (780 sq feet). My apartments have been nice and in good areas! I couldn't imagine pay $2,000 for a one bed one bath in Dallas!
Omg my town!! Welcome! I hope you enjoy living here! Also the apartment in Irving is literally right next to me! The train is kind of loud I will say. Enjoy your new adventure 🤠
I live in Houston and pay $1400 for over 1000 sq feet, in a prime location! So cool to see the difference between Dallas and Houston. I love Texas 🙌
I love all these apartments. You should do apartment search videos in different states once you can travel safely. I live in Novi Michigan which is a Detroit Metro suburb, about 45 minutes northwest of downtown Detroit.
love these type of videos!! can't wait to see your apartment and all the moving vlogs!
thank you for wearing masks and being safe! stay safe out there❤️
I live in Dallas and it’s a GREAT city! Moved here in December from South Florida and I LOVE it here! I’m in Addison, North Dallas is a great location but I’m sure the area you chose whatever it is will be great as well!
This is so exciting Michelle, you are glowing!!🤩 I live in Dallas and my boyfriend works in Dallas! Good luck!❤️ can’t wait to see your success!
Natalie Minassian Canadian over here, oh my, is that common for a female to have multiple boyfriends in Texas?
Nicola B it was a typo! No.. I have one boyfriend lol. I just fixed the typo. We have been together for 4 years.
I’m so excited to see the apartments you’ve toured, I hope the hunt is going well Michelle!! ❤️ Searching for apartments is so challenging
thanks for watching!
Michelle Reed you’re very welcome! 😇
I really liked the first one! I’m excited for y’all! I’ll miss the New York City vlogs tho! 😭
Husband and I live in Preston Hollow Village - it’s a great apartment. Perfect location and it’s really nice and great prices! They have three building. Each one has different level of pricing. Definitely recommend!
From hearing all your likes and dislike, you would really love it here! Not sure if you already signed a lease, but it not, definitely check this place out. There’s restaurants underneath our apartment and did I mention Trader Joe’s In walking distances. Also, if you put us as your referral we can split the check 😁 if you ever decide to stay here.
You definitely have to hunt to find a decent deal in the Dallas metroplex! My fiancé and I looked for a while before we moved for our jobs. We work in the southern Frisco area, so we looked in Frisco, McKinney, Plano & Prosper. We were able to find a very new & nice 3BR 2Bath house cheaper than these apartments. 😳 Oh my! I didn’t even look inside Dallas so I had no idea that this was on the ‘cheaper’ side of apartment prices. Have y’all ever thought about a house? It mainly depends on your job location and if you want to commute a little bit! 😊😊
I have been waiting for this video! So excited for this next chapter of your life Michelle! ❤️
thanks so much Lauren!
Omg I was born and raised in Austin and growing here I thought Austin had good prices on apartments!! Dallas is such a beautiful city and looks affordable 🤩
I loved apartment no. 1 :)
Congratulations on the next chapter! The first and second apartments
The first apartment was definitely my favorite!
so excited for you! when you do move in, you should do a what I spend in a week!
Your apartment looks soo nice!! Going to watch the video but first I wanted to comment. Love you !! So happy for you . Excited for future videos best of luck to u😃 for ur future💞💞💞
thanks so much!
I loved the town homes but it's really hard to pick they were all beautiful
Welcome to Dallas
so sad you're leaving nyc but excited for your dallas videos now!
You’re glowing! So excited for you guys!
thank you so much!
OOO Ive never been to Dallas it was nice seeing what type of apartments there compared to Toronto and NYC
Sooo excited for the both of you!!
I didn’t know you were considering living in Frisco! I got so hyped when I heard my home town being shouted out!
yes! I love Frisco a lot!
I like all of them beautiful choices ty for sharing
Love the video..hmm can't wait to see what apartment you two picked out.
5:47 yeeees my dream home will have the sunrise facing my bedroom and the sunset will be able to be seen from my backyard lol
I think I love the first one most because of the space and lay-out! I'd love to see videos about being financially stable in your 20s after college. I graduated university last week and I'm trying to find a job and building my own business while having a prettty high college debt and I'd love to feel more confident about budgetting and alll that stuff!
congrats on graduating, I can definitely create some content around those ideas!
@@michellereedg Thank you!! Awesome, can't wait to see them. :)
God those prices are honestly amazing.
Looks like you have a lot of great choices to choose from! You are going to have SO much more space!! : )
They were all so cute, I loved the first one and the one with the city view. The options you have compared to NYC are so much better haha.
leaving nyc next month! cant wait to have space! peace! and quiet :)
Apartment 3 is perfect
Haha the one in Irving is where my friend lives! Beautiful apartments 🤩
I love these kinds of videos hehe thank you for them
Such nice places for the budget!! I'm looking at apartments for my boyfriend & I in a town north of Los Angeles, CA & you get a shoebox for $1200 a month in a rough neighborhood. So depressing lol
i just moved to dallas too for graduate school!! i've been watching your videos forever, hopefully i'll be able to run into you sometime in the city :')
awh that would be awesome!
Dude: Our budget is $1300. Chick: Baaaabe!
This was a fun video to watch, and actually helpful to me! I'm in such a similar life stage as you right now, I'm engaged, going to get married within a year, and going to be looking for places to live after marriage before too long too! I appreciate you sharing your experience.
congrats on getting married!
@@michellereedg Awe, thank you!! :)
I cant wait to see your new apartment!!
highly recommend watching house hunters if you don’t watch it already they also give decor ideas in some other hgtv shows excited to see which apartment y’all picked 😁🎊🎉🥂🍾 fabulous video
Great apartment hunting in Texas, Michelle!❤️❤️❤️❤️
Love watching your content! Just watched the CEO routines' video. Loved that as well.
thank you! I kind of want to do another one of those :)
@@michellereedg Well, go for it. I am an early bird and I do meditation and journaling in the morning. However, I realized that I want to incorporate Yoga in my morning routine and I also want to include smoothies in my breakfast. Inspiration was that video!
Loved this video!! Also where is your top and necklace from?
Michelle’s skin is so beautiful and glowy!
yay, so excited for you!
Yesss!! Can’t wait to see future videos! Just curious, what is your perspective on buying a house vs still renting? Especially since you are getting married and maybe plan on staying where you are for awhile?
we aren't too sure where we want to live yet permanently! we also know buying a house comes with maintenance costs/taxes we want to hold out on right now. I'd love to do a custom build in the future, so we'd rather keep saving
Michelle Reed Gotcha! That makes a lot of sense. It all depends on your goals/dreams as a couple 😊
YEESSS I’VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS
Can you list the apartments that you looked at below the video?
I live in Frisco it's crazy to know that you could have almost lived in my city!!
I was going to do something then I saw that you uploaded and I quickly clicked your video!
yay!
It would have been super helpful to include the names of the apartment buildings ... :(
Where is that blue/white playsuit from?! It's soooo stinking cute!
Can you add the apartment names of the ones you didn’t chose?
This is random but your skin looks extra glowy in this video!! Have you changed anything about your skincare routine recently? ❤️
awh thank you! honestly no, just drinking a lot of water and being minimal on skincare
I hope this isn't too tmi !!! but I was wondering what kind of living (bed) situation y'all were gonna do before you're married!! no hate just genuinely curious love ya girl :)
