apartment in the city question

[zanejohnson]

i recently went through pretty much the same move you are, i dont think you mention how big the place your staying in now is... but for us, that was the biggest difference.. we went from a 2600 sq foot 2 story 4bed 2 bath older home (built in the late 50's i believe) to a 2br 2 bath condo/apartment (it's like a bigass apartment ~1700 sq foot) there's like 7 or 8 buildings that look like huge houses, each having 2-4 units on each floor) it's not downtown, we're about 10 mins driving distance from downtown, so not bad... but it's surrounded by shopping centers, there's a wal-mart literally right down a big hill in our back yard it would be cool to have that view, walmart and then just pretty much a residential place right smack in the middle of a commercial area, but gated off... we went wtih the nicest place we could find, and renting our old place out works out great... i needed to be closer to the city as pretty much every call i do is in the downtown/shopping areas of town, and we're right there now, the only thing that sucks is that i cant even use my home theater hardly anymore, any volume at all just seems like it would bug the neighbors. We've had one complaint so far, like 3 days after we moved in, older man from the floor below came up at 10pm or so and asked if i could turn down the sound (it wasnt LOUD, just loud enough to get a little bit of thunder output at all out of the subwoofer during explosions, etc.... i of course apoligized and turned it down, and haven't turned it up since....

on a cooler note, i realized a couple days ago that i think the guy who complained went out and bought a HTIB, or something, because now sometimes i hear a little rumble coming from his place rofl.... so it all worked out.

the only city that should be referred to as "THE CITY" is New York City

Never underestimate the value of in unit laundry. Is it worth $300? Almost, IMO.

Yea, the other place is like $1.50 a load. each washer, then dryer. So $3.00 total.

I'll do 20-30 loads a month. So $90, plus the convenience of being able to do it when I want, and not having to worry if the previous user shit their pants and washed it in that same unit just befor I used it.

20-30 loads a month!?!?! Good god, what do you do, wear 4 sets of clothing a day??

I do 3 loads a month!

You're right, its probably 15-20. But I'm going to try and score a live in girlfriend and entice her with free rent. I just want a house cat really. So she'd need to be able to do her laundry too.

LOL R U SRIUS?

absolutely. I'll need something to bang when I get off work....

wait....hav eyou updated thread from yesterday

waht thread?

agent from management company, Brazilian, bewbs....etc?

no, not shens. My manager actually heard my story and went over their "to check it out"

he said she was very curt with him and didn't act remotely the same way as I described.

Laundry for two people is about 6-7 loads a month. 15-20 is ridiculous, unless you compulsively shit on yourself daily.

Think about it, 15 loads/month is washing clothes every other day. SRSLY WTF

exactly. TechBoyJK, you sure are wasting a lot of energy/water by doing that many loads...and no you don't need to do that many.

I was my bed sheets like once a week.. that's two loads, because it won't all fit in one.
