Hate how rent is so expensive, sometimes I consider moving in the middle of nowhere Illinois where rent is like $500 a month.😂
@uglymombeautifulboy0910 that's insanely good price for 4, beds 3 baths. I'd kill for that lol. But oof steep driveways scare me, steep streets scare me 😂
@bluepenguin theres a 4 bedroom 3 bath house for rent down here for $1025, we can afford it but we just upgraded to our 2bed 2bath in July so its gunna be awhile till we move again which sucks cause we have been at these apartments for almost 3 years and they really suck ass, the snow kills us at these apartments, our driveway is the steepest driveway in my town & its impossible to get up when its snowing😔😖 not excited lol its gunna be a bitch when i go into labor and theres still snow like last year lol last year the snow stay up until a few days before 2018 summer started😣 definitely cant wait to get outtah this snow🙏😁
@uglymombeautifulboy0910 I like the sound of rent to own, honestly some rent prices are just as expensive as a mortgage for an expensive house
@lifewithlynnieandwill88 that sounds awesome, I dream of having a big house someday 😍
@bluepenguin we dont plan on buying one yet, just renting a house for a few years would be nice, or doing a rent to own type deal
There's some here for $2000 plus but I don't even look at those lol hopefully we can eventually build our own in a few years. My hubby is a builder amongst other things, electrician, plumber, concrete layer etc so he can do all the work, we just need to save for all the materials etc
We own a 3 bedroom, 3 bathroom for 700$! Before we moved where we are we lived in a one bedroom apartment for 650$ a month
@lifewithlynnieandwill88 this time we want something a little bigger to fit two kids, so I think ill stretch the budget to 1000-1100 but no more... I mean he makes good money in the summer but winter is a little tough because he has a seasonal job, so he works in a factory in the winter
@lifewithlynnieandwill88 oh houses here are 1900-2900+ , apartments are like 1000-1800 for small two beds
Houses around the area were wanting to move to are $900-$1500 a month. Ugh. I wish I could find one for $500. Wouldn't that be lovely.
@caffeine.fiend thanks, I have another month to find a place. However just hoping something good pops up , so done living here with these rude ass people upstairs
We paid $750/month for a 2 bed apartment in middle of nowhere Illinois. Renting stinks🙁! Hopefully you can find something more affordable soon
@uglymombeautifulboy0910 I can't wait to get a house, but property taxes are insane here lol
The apartments were about to move into start at $2,800🙄🙄🙄 Thank god were getting a discount since my bf will be working on site.
I'm paying $965 for a 2 bedroom 2 bathroom apartment, I can't wait to get our house lol I can't stand apartments anymore, I hate having upstairs neighbors
@nomli $450 a month, sign me up! Haha thing is we aren't broke, nor struggling, but it's going to be hard to accustom a $1000+ rent....I mean they have cheaper ones around here $700 a month but in very bad neighborhoods, with bad schooling
@3virgogirls yup, hoping I find something around Brookfield/la Grange park that's not going to cost me an arm and a leg per month lol
@blessedmommy23 so lucky, wish that was the case, but Illinois is shit lol. Im paying 850$ a month for a small ass 2 bed 1 bath basement apartment. And the good neighborhood I want to move to is anywhere from 1000-1700+ a month for just 2 beds 😣
My fiance is from SD, and people thought he was ridiculous to pay $450 for a 2br apartment. Like, $450 was expensive!!! I'm in NJ where rent for our two bedroom was $1750!!
I’m currently living in a three bedroom two baths house for $400 a month
Bills
How much does your bills/rent/mortgage add up per month?
What is the normal rent for a 1br / 1ba in your area? I’m currently paying $857 a month & I really feel like it’s overpriced

Guys if I was looking at a place to rent on Craigslist and I go to click on the ad again and this pops up does that mean it's a scam?? I need to know because my boyfriend and I have been talking to the person !!
If I am renting a bedroom out of a 3bedroom apartment, and give money to the person on the lease for rent, is it legal for her to not spend money on the actual rent???? I just saw a note on the door yesterday that was a 3 day notice and it clearly said rent had not been paid (even partially) for Dec or Jan. I know I gave her half the rent both times (she in fact gets a little rude about it). Now...I am already frustrated I have to move right when the twins are due, but I am curious where the hel...
Why is rent so expensive .
Yeah...I'm wondering too....paying $1150 for one bedroom
