I got an Airb&b man, so much cheaper
The Airbnb hosts are actual cretins. All of them have properties listed as available to rent for the dates I wanted (my 10 weeks) and when you message them they all want you to wait until the last minute so they can Jack up prices, or they pretend to not know if it’ll be available. Mao was right about landlords bro.
Same thing happening to me lol.
spot on, do not trust Airbnb
It gets even worse when you come back FT
What is your rent budget like for FT?
For studio/1BD
$2500-$3k for Jersey
$3500-$4k for less desirable parts of Manhattan (ex: FiDi)
$4-$5k for decent apartments in desirable parts of Manhattan (although you may be able to find ones of lower quality in the $3500-$4k range).
To put all of this into perspective the NYU dorm is only $2200/month and it’s inside Manhattan.
Anyone have good brokers or sources for intern housing?
$5500 is about the monthly rent for a non studio / non gross 1 bedroom in NYC these days, let alone short term, furnished, for the whole summer and in a decent area like NYU is. Shit is crazy.
No broker is going to represent you for short term to respond to the other comment, you're on your own between finding a sublet, Airbnb, or NYU. highly recommend checking out NYU sublet groups or Sweats and the City FB group for sublets. But $5500 is ~$2200.a month which is going to be very hard to come by for a furnished short term place.
Check out the pricing on Sonder / Blueground - corp type Airbnbs that are probably more reliable than the shitshow of NYC Airbnbs (back story there - was illegal for a long time, now cannot legally rent for under 30 days, so Airbnb never really caught on here)
He won’t even be able to find something in Jersey at $2200/month let alone Manhattan.
5500 for ten weeks or for a month
5500 would be a steal for 10 weeks. That's 2200/m. Yr long lease in a decent spot would be way more than that. Even in Brooklyn. Manhattan, especially lower Manhattan - good luck!
OP here
Y’all boutta make me cry with these prices 😭
That's about the same that I paid 14 years ago for NYU Dorms during summer internship- I'm actually surprised it's not more. Check out the Law School Apartments too.
How was your experience there?
it’s like 7400 bc they make u buy meal plan so yeah…
Find a roommate sublet. Why do you need your own apartment for a summer when you’ll barely be home to enjoy it?
Being poor sounds awful.
Director calling a 20 year old poor
Totally missed my sarcasm as usual. This site gets more and more depressing to use. I’m gonna head to Reddit for awhile, thanks for the push, you typical wso user - zero real world experience, and posts anonymously under an already anonymous account lol.
