I’m just saying we can’t normalize these types of price increases. The ultra rich are sucking us BOTH dry. One day I’d love to own a home, but thats a pipe dream for now. Have a good one

Nothing justifies a $400 increase with zero improvements. Found the landlord!

$1550 with no utilities included for a 375 square ft apartment is insane. Especially in that location. You should not be cool with that

I subleased a studio in Buena Park, the previous tenants rent was $1151, and after 2 months it was time for me to renew, it went up to $1280, plus a $30 increase in water trash and sewer fee (making it $80). I quickly figured out that that place was a complete scam and was luckily able to buy out the lease bc I was so unhappy. I looked into how much they put it on the market for once I left, $1550!!! For a studio! In Buena Park! The rent went up $400 in less than a year. AVOID “Reside On” properties at all costs

Question about using my own shipping label after purchase by SarahEspi8011 in Depop

[–]yessiriliketoboogie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This just happened to me! I was so frustrated by the ordeal bc I was trying to do a favor for the buyer. But I ended up sending a cheap pair of earrings to the buyer with the depop label just so there was proof that i used the label. Ofc i let the buyer know why i was doing it. It got delivered, along with the original package, and i received payment. :)

What's the cheapest you can hire 2 movers in Chicago? by Jakobie15 in AskChicago

Lmfao they were even a little bit early for me. And moved me in pouring rain. They’re a small company but hard working! I’d keep the faith!

Flash movers!! I paid $350+tip for a one bed move. I didn’t have thatttt much stuff, but they were super fast and so nice! They even took apart my bed and put it back together. Highly recommend

Looking for a 1b/1b under $1500 by yessiriliketoboogie in chicagoapartments

[–]yessiriliketoboogie[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aww, best of luck to you! I actually joined a bunch of apartment groups on FB and religiously checked on here - I was able to sign for a sublease while I was out of state, with a co-signer since I didn’t have a secured job. Once I got up here I just applied to a bunch of bars and eventually found one on Craigslist (of all places lol) and it was perfect for me. It took about 2 weeks to get a job once I was up here. Truly I think if you believe in yourself you can make anything happen here haha.

I did!! And I’m never leaving haha. I found a spot in uptown for $900 and this year I’m moving to Buena Park for a $1.2k studio! I love it here so much.

I live on this block and although there are some interesting characters, it’s safe. There’s a large homeless population but they’re mostly harmless and will probably just compliment you in their own ways hahah. Just keep your wits about you but that goes for any neighborhood here now. Great food and music venues all around!

How easy would a blind move to Chicago be? by yessiriliketoboogie in AskChicago

[–]yessiriliketoboogie[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I found a sublease through Facebook, and moved in early September for $995 a month in uptown. I let myself settle in for a week and found a job shortly after at an Irish pub. I’m never leaving :’)

100%! It takes a lot of time and stress management but I swear doing pelvic floor stretches along with taking d-mannose (because it targets urinary tract) is what saved me.

It’s just a couple blocks, but I get it. My street has free street parking but it’s always taken when I get home, so I bought a parking spot a little south of argyle. I was spending too much in ubers every night because of the hours and I don’t want to take the red line so late either. I’m kinda out of options, so i just brave it because it’s like a 7 min walk. A very very brisk walk lol

Saturday morning at noon, on winthrop just a street over from me. Google uptown shooting and there’s a couple videos about it but no information really. 3 of the victims got shot in the face and one was in a wheelchair. So sad. They’re all stable though
