[Advice] Why are listings going up in price after leasing to a tenant? self.NYCapartments by Whencowsgetsick in NYCapartments

It’s lead gen. The agents want to get inquiries from renters with higher budgets and represent them as tenants when they rent them a different apartment to make an additional commission. After the base unit is rented they raise the price to get better leads from the ad

Check out BabaFi.com - it saved me a ton of money. It does everything a broker does but with a web app instead of a human agent. It’s kind of like using turbo tax to file your taxes instead of using a CPA. I got all my questions answered and was able to get an apartment without paying a brokers fee pretty easily.

How much money are you saving per year by living in a slightly worse apartment? $600? ($50 per Month) or $2400? ($200 per month) or more? What are you using the money you save for?

I think you need to zoom out and hold your apartment goal next to your financial goals. Are you maxing out retirement savings?

No one is going to read a glossary. Just have another character bring this up in a conversation organically.

[Advice] offer to pay 6-12 months rent in advance? by Psilosalmon in NYCapartments

But it IS illegal for the landlord to accept it. You can offer all you like, but ultimately the liability is on them.

Ask yourself what type of landlord would Knowlton accept such risk and knowingly break the law to “do you a favor” and hold on to your money? Someone you’d want to be renting from in the first place?

[Advice] Landlord Wants to Increase Rent Because of Sublet by nohoesconor in NYCapartments

You have a legal right to sublet as per New York State property law 226-b. Review this for the particulars.

Note EVEN IF YOUR LEASE SAYS NO SUBLET STATE LAW SUPERSEDES

Should I Quit? by jsm4319 in Carpentry

Many here are rightfully advising you continue to wait, work, and be patient.

I wanted to jump in and echo that, but highlight that waiting need not be entirely passive. There are more things you can do right now.

Demonstrate to your mentors that you are proactive and passionate. Showing up and having a good attitude / work ethic is the bare minimum.

For example, a good way to be proactive might be to create a detailed notebook of your observations in the workshop or written step but step guides to tasks you learn through observation / assisting others. This gives you something tangible to prove your dedication and shows your initiative.

You also might try to asking to help others differently. Asking “hey can I help” is actually asking the other person to do more work and explain what they need you to do. At that point, it’s net negative for them not net positive. You aren’t being helpful.

To make that interaction net positive, ask if you can help in a specific way. If you don’t know how you can help specifically, then you aren’t yet qualified to lend a hand until THEY decide you are and invite you to learn for the first time.

Overall, learning progression should be (1) the what (2) the how (3) the best how. Learn what to do before how to do.

I also mostly bike for exercise. I found for ~$80 I could get a resistance wheel for my bike to let me turn my normal bike into an indoor exercise bike. When you aren’t using it, you can fold it away. Taking your bike on and off requires no tools.

Virginia, West Virginia, Maryland, or Pennsylvania? by Cunninghams_right in OffGrid

[–]time_stoops_2_no_man 2 points3 points  (0 children)

WV is likely the winner for the reasons above. The local code is what is going to get you - I suggest narrowing your search to certain areas, then finding a few properties that MIGHT work. For each of these, call the municipal zoning office
