hey message me your rent and i'll tell
[5]
you
[6]
how much house you can buy one of the
[8]
people who responded to this message
[10]
actually lives in new york and he lives
[13]
in harlem
[14]
which i think i think harlem might be
[17]
considered
[18]
manhattan i don't know my geography's
[21]
not good in iowa let alone new york city
[23]
but anyway he is in a rent-stabilized
[28]
apartment in harlem paying
[31]
2 71
[35]
a month for an apartment
[40]
oh my god so what do you think that will
[44]
buy
[45]
in des moines let's find out okay
[48]
i don't know exactly the details
[52]
of the guy who's paying 22.71 a month in
[55]
rent
[55]
but i found this in south harlem on
[57]
zillow that is currently for rent
[59]
it appears to be a beautiful apartment
[62]
with a tiny
[64]
stove that's so adorable and a tiny
[67]
bathroom
[68]
tiny bedrooms i mean it's just so darn
[71]
cute but it is small
[73]
so when i look at the facts and features
[75]
it's two bedrooms one bathroom
[78]
no parking no
[81]
air conditioning what how do they
[85]
live i don't understand
[90]
and the bedrooms have closets that can
[91]
fit king or queen-size
[93]
beds apparently you have to put your bed
[96]
in the closet in new york city
[98]
who knew so the way i have figured this
[102]
is if you're spending 22.71
[105]
a month in rent and you were to move to
[109]
iowa and let's assume you work from home
[111]
your job hasn't changed your
[113]
affordability hasn't changed
[115]
we're just going to assume that if you
[116]
can afford 22.71 a month in rent you can
[119]
afford 22.71 a month and a monthly
[122]
payment
[123]
and also assuming that you're going to
[125]
buy a house
[126]
with zero money down obviously
[130]
the more money you put down the better
[132]
off your financial situation
[134]
and your monthly payment will be but for
[136]
the sake of this example
[138]
zero percent down we're assuming a 2.75
[141]
interest rate i don't know that could be
[143]
what the rate is on the day that you buy
[146]
and i'm also assuming high property
[150]
taxes because
[151]
in some areas they might be around seven
[154]
thousand dollars
[154]
a year in some areas they might be
[157]
around 4 500
[158]
5 000 a year thousand dollars a year for
[161]
homeowners insurance
[162]
and because you put zero money down
[165]
let's assume
[165]
uh pmi private mortgage insurance is
[168]
included in your monthly payment
[171]
so if you bought a house for three
[173]
hundred and thirty thousand dollars
[175]
and all of those other things are true
[177]
your monthly payment would be two
[179]
thousand
[179]
two hundred and eighty three dollars in
[182]
the
[183]
in the greater des moines area so this
[186]
house
[186]
is for sale in bondurant for 340 000
[190]
and let's look it's got three bedrooms
[193]
two bathrooms
[194]
a full bath and a three-quarter bath and
[196]
it has a two-car attached garage
[199]
oh my god it has central air
[201]
conditioning
[202]
uh it's got city water city sewer now it
[206]
is in bondurant
[207]
which is an up-and-coming
[211]
little community so it might feel
[215]
rather rural it's not
[218]
but i could see where somebody who's
[219]
used to living in an apartment in new
[221]
york city
[222]
might think oh my god i live in the
[224]
country now but look at this
[227]
this is so cool i love the look of this
[231]
what a neat kitchen and it's huge and
[233]
look
[234]
the stove is a normal sized stove
[237]
it's not a tiny stove so imagine all of
[240]
the cooking you could do you could
[241]
probably even fit a full-sized turkey in
[243]
that
[244]
look at this huge refrigerator microwave
[247]
i love all the cabinets the gold
[249]
lighting this house is
[250]
neat and it still has the beautiful
[253]
hardwood floors
[254]
it's got a lot of character to it so if
[256]
you're coming from new york city
[258]
even though you're going to probably go
[261]
insane from
[263]
the quiet in bondurant i think it's
[267]
great
[267]
i love it when i can hear the birds
[270]
chirp
[270]
but if i were just coming from new york
[272]
city uh
[273]
moving to bondurant might be too much so
[275]
word to the wise
[277]
but look this house has so much
[279]
character it is adorable
[281]
the bathrooms are great it's got a nice
[283]
mix of
[285]
old and new and i think
[288]
this is a house i want to move into
[292]
so a nice big unfinished basement nice
[295]
little place to
[296]
sit down and have some coffee and listen
[298]
to those birds chirp
[300]
cool front door i am in love with this
[303]
house
[304]
so let's see the taxes here are 63.15 a
[307]
year
[307]
let's say you paid full price 340 000
[311]
your payment is 2 275
[314]
a month for four dollars more you can
[316]
have your own house
[318]
in bondurant iowa and it's pretty cool
[321]
that i think your new york friends would
[322]
probably be very jealous
[324]
then harwood drive is
[328]
in a very fancy part of des moines
[331]
maybe not fancy but is it is a very nice
[334]
neighborhood in des moines
[336]
and this is built in 1950 it has three
[339]
bedroom
[340]
two and a half bath two car attached
[342]
garage
[343]
taxes are pretty high though i told you
[345]
the neighborhood was fancy
[346]
seven thousand one hundred and forty
[348]
three dollars this one i would say
[350]
is also a little bit more of a fixer
[353]
upper
[354]
for 335 000 and 7 143
[358]
a year in taxes you're looking at 2 320
[362]
a month and
[367]
it's got a nice little layout
[370]
the windows appear to be they kind of
[372]
look a little older don't they
[374]
the kitchen has been renovated
[377]
but maybe not recently the countertop
[382]
you know is um not granite
[389]
do you like pink bathrooms do they have
[391]
pink bathrooms in new york i don't know
[394]
that could be something that you really
[396]
love or it might be something that you
[398]
want to update but
[402]
otherwise this house has great bones
[407]
two ugly bathrooms or beautiful
[410]
bathrooms depending on
[412]
your uh personal preference and it even
[415]
comes with a nice little shed so that
[416]
you have
[417]
more room in your garage and that looks
[419]
like a sunroom on it too
[421]
now of course this house was listed in
[424]
the fall
[425]
so you're you might be wondering hmm
[427]
what is this brush
[428]
area and it's just giving you an idea of
[431]
the living space here in the back
[433]
in the spring and summer this i'm sure
[435]
is not so much
[436]
brush as it is lush
[441]
so pretty nice place on harwood that you
[444]
can have
[444]
for 2 320
[448]
a month but maybe you want to live in
[450]
the suburbs
[451]
maybe ankeny iowa is the place for you
[454]
so this house was built in 2017
[457]
it has a three-car attached garage you
[460]
go from
[460]
zero parking spots to three that's
[462]
amazing
[463]
has one thousand seven hundred eighty
[465]
square feet five bedrooms
[467]
three and a half baths taxes are 62
[470]
what was it 62 26 that is a monthly
[473]
payment of 2
[474]
219 so this is going to be your garage
[478]
over here for those of you not used to
[480]
having garages we call this
[481]
a side load garage
[485]
now look at this brand new kind of has
[488]
like a rustic feel
[490]
i love it nice brick fireplace
[493]
and you know it's a new fireplace so you
[496]
don't have to worry about it actually
[497]
causing
[498]
a fire if you were to use your fireplace
[501]
in new york city that might have
[503]
asbestos in it
[505]
who knows how old it is granite counters
[508]
beautiful kitchen
[509]
nice backsplash big laundry room
[512]
now i'm gonna guess in new york city you
[516]
probably have to
[517]
take your laundry out to have it done
[519]
you probably don't have in-laundry units
[521]
there
[522]
i could be wrong i actually have never
[523]
lived in new york city so a lot of this
[525]
is just going off of what i have seen on
[527]
sex in the city
[528]
nice tile shower cute cute cute
[533]
this would be fantastic oh my gosh
[536]
imagine the fun partying child not
[539]
included
[540]
if you're paying 2271 dollars in new
[544]
york city
[546]

[548]
