I would add: STOP WITH THE GRAY ESPECIALLY ON THE FLOORS.
Also I think I said this before but consider Jersey City! I loved Brooklyn Heights, too, but when it became too rich for our blood we crossed two rivers and never looked back. I loved Jersey City, Dixon Mills in particular, I can absolutely see you and your lovely family in our old converted pencil factory apartment. Just think about it!
Ewwwwwww "Toilets: I’m not a plumber either, but I do think one is worth consulting before installing a toilet that backs up to a glass-walled shower." 🤬
Erin. Lord have mercy. That washer dryer!!? I lived without a washer dryer for a decade and towards the end I'd make noises about "being willing to cut off my right arm for an in-building (not even in-unit!) washer dryer" but that setup is really the landlord saying "ok hold my drink"
hoping that you guys eventually find that unicorn 80 year old landlord that thinks that $1500 a month is still market-rate
Do you mind if we share this with house flippers too? Because if I see one more house stripped of its charm to accommodate modern tastes (whatever that means) I may lose my mind.
I know this post was meant to be funny/not funny, but I found myself so enraged by the end (and I've already expressed my feelings about landlords here) that I had to calm myself down by reading "Wild Waters," your post about love.
Oh Erin, this was funny and sad at the same time! You must be so sick of this search, I hope you find something soon...

Unbelievable! Yuck. Why??? I have so many feelings. And I laughed a lot. A great post. 💓
All of this.

Keeping my fingers crossed for you.
Yes! I was thinking the same thing. All of these most definitely apply to house flippers. Pardon me but can we please stop with open concepts?!
100 percent good to share.
If only landlords had to live in their spaces for just a month. Just one month.
hahahasobsobscream, amirite? Hilarious. Courage, my love. You are a strong woman.

sorry!
Not your fault!
"Splurge on that extra ten square feet of drywall" and pretty much all of this made me laugh very hard. Sending you strength and courage on the hunt.
TY!
