How much are you paying for rent?

[NSGUITAR]

To the guys renting out space for their studios:

How much are you paying monthly? I think I found a steal of a deal, through my uncle who does real estate around here.

He will rent out a space that's about 1000 Sq ft for 200$ a month!!!!! I'm really thinking about doing this.

 

[amarshism]

That's peanuts

 

[JeffTD]

about 3k split between 4 guys, 4 bedroom/2bath apartment, including utilities.

 

[DeclanWhite]

fuck. thats lucky!

 

[arv_foh]

$200 is dirt fucking cheap for any size of space

All your shit is going to get stolen. And you're going to get raped by Polish immigrants in the area.

Im paying around $1500 a month including my utilities (covered by the owner). Its a pretty good deal, I'm renting out two adjacent rooms at a rehearsal studio that I have treated as much as I can and put in a window / cable snakes. My tracking room is about 6m x 5m with 3.5m meter ceilings and my control room is 5m x 4m x 3.5m which is ok. I'm really enjoying it here though, I'm limited to working during the day on weekdays, all day saturday. The rest of the time well its a completely full 14 room rehearsal studio, so thats not great for productivity. Its working out well though as 54 bands go through the place a week, and its already gotten me a fair bit of work

That'd be the case if he was in London

$500 a month for a small ass 2 bedroom duplex that's over 100 years old. My utilities are about $200 a month.

I used to rent a 3 bedroom house for $490 a month when I lived in the midwest (and that fucker had central air!). My utilities were like $120 at that place. Fucking hate NY.

Us aussies are getting raped on our rent. I'm living in a big shed with two big rooms with no kitchen/water/toliet/shower and have to do all that stuff in the house at the front of the property, populated by 6 indian dudes in a 2 bedroom house !! $900 a month it costs me not including bills and Im not even close to the city. In fact I live in a suburb called Chadstone which is not a nice area. I never realised it was this bad compared to other parts of thr world

120/month for my practicespace, split between 6 guys.

It's roughly 250Sq ft, heated, gated, and has a security system.

 

[Erik Monsonis]

650€ a month (all included, from gas to internet), split between another student. It's a 90 sq meters apartment in the main street of this city. It's a steal if you ask me (compared to Spain)

Holly shit, does that include taxes? I've been looking for a house and even a little dank $80k house with $10k down still ends up being $900 a month with taxes around here.

I need to get the fuck out of this state, stupid city blood sucking upstate.

WTF?
I'll have a room for rent later in the year in Melton which will have kitchen/water/toilet/shower for less than that (plus bills) if you're interested.

Oh ok, taxes aren't that much more in my area (it was around 1900 for 100k house).

Turns out Melbourne Australia is listed as the 321st worst city for housing affordability out of the 325 english speaking cities world wide. Australia's capital Sydney is 324 out of 325. This was just posted on theage.com.au today.

I gotta get out of this county. I could own a fucking palace anywhere else in the world right now

Thanks for the offer dude but Chadstone is where all my students are. Chadstone's maybe 20 minutes drive to Melbourne with no traffic, closer to an hour in traffic, for memory Melton's a bit further. Honestly I would prefer it out there but the only way I can afford to live alone is living near the rich suburbs and charging big bucks to teach rich kids. I don't dare teach out of home. I'm not exaggerating, I really do pay $900 a month for a big shed, and all the proper one bedroom units in the area go for a little over a $1000 and aren't even big enough to fit my bed in the bedroom, yet alone the studio equipment.

Damn joey, that's a steal!


The apartment I live in is close to 2500 sq/ft and is 800$ alone for rent!
