My boyfriend, Addison Chen, and I moved into our New York City condo! We bought our condo in our 20s during the pandemic and finally closed! This vlog will show you an empty apartment tour! I have another video specifically on the aftermath where we are done with all our updates and furnishing to make it our own home. In addition, moving with cats is always harder than it looks, so I showed you how we did it! Lastly, we did a small little snippet on what we bought from Trader Joe’s. This was actually our first time shopping there! We finally live near one!

Something I realized not a lot of people knew about is that people of medium income can also get Affordable Housing. In NYC, there is a long and winding process, but I break it down in this video. Landlords get a 421a tax abatement. This is one way to save lots of money on rent! It was also how my boyfriend and I saved money to eventually buy a condo. Going to miss living in this newly constructed apartment in Williamsburg, Brooklyn!
