@gailthegirl: quick rant but I’m actually gagged like I’m used to seeing 40x the rent but 103x is actually absurd #nycapartment #nycapartmenttour #nyc #apartmenttour #nycapartments
I’m legitimately confused. Most states want 3 times the rent but NYC wants 40 times? How does anyone qualify? 😳

Why is everyone attacking you 😭 $7000 split between 3 ppl is average for NYC, and being asked to make 103x the rent is OUTRAGEOUS 😭

It would mean each of us has to make 240k a year per person and the average 24 year old isn’t making that a year

In NYC, the industry standard for a household’s COMBINED gross annual income is 40 times the monthly rent. You can report her real estate license to New York State. That’s very illegal.

Rent control did this. All these retirees are hogging units paying $800 a month that should go to young people

RE agent - 103x is insane. It should only be 40x ~combined~ or 80x with a guarantor. 103x is made tf up

It should be 34x a person. She said 40 for 1 person, 80 for 2 (again 40 a person) and then 103x for 3 (so 34x a person) you should call and ask if or just in the future as that makes no sense. People who make 240k aren’t living with roommates…

This is a way for them to control who gets in the building- they don’t want 3 or 4 adults on one apartment.

This almost seems like a fair housing violation. They require more income based on occupants, but if it’s because you’re not married or a couple (just friends) then they are discriminating based on marital status which is a protected class. Insane regardless, because what’s the difference between 1 person paying rent vs 3?

The biggest issue is anyone making 700k is NOT living in a 6-7k 600sq foot apartment in New York

Just apply. They can throw whatever crazy rates out but at the end of the day the landlord/agency is going to review the application and see who’s the best fit is. They are just trying to reduce risk. They know many people ain’t making 700k

New York politics did this. Landlords can’t risk having to evict tenements because New York won’t let them.

Watcher of Tiktoks :
I went through this with my wife’s cousin who I was guaranteeing: basically they hold all the tenants jointly liable — in other words, they want any single one of the tenants to be able to cover the rent for everyone. And if you’re a guarantor, you have to be responsible for all the tenants, not just the one you’re related to. Not to mention all the personal information they ask for. It’s *insane*.
