Those don’t even look like anything special. And the location is amazing but also probably $$$$ to insure.
If I’m spending the equivalent of the price of a whole damn house in rent per year I better at least have the kind of house where you host all the family holidays.
I live in an LA suburb, about 5 miles from the beach and pay ~$2000/month for a 2 bedroom, one bathroom. In Inglewood, it would probably be less for the same size apartment, even less for a one bedroom or studio. Yes, LA is more expensive than most places in the US but it’s not as crazy as they’re making it out to be. Rob might be fine with going outside to use the bathroom, but it’s totally normal that Sophie doesn’t want to. It doesn’t even sound like she wants something super fancy, she just wants to be able to use the bathroom without leaving her apartment.
Oh yeah, I’m definitely team sophie. I just think those prices are insane even for right there on the beach. But I guess if people pay them then that’s the market. Housing should be more affordable overall, but nobody needs to live on the beach.
Your rent actually doesn’t sound too bad. I’m in Florida and you can get a nice place for that, but not really too different from what you’re talking about. And you probably have higher wages than you would here.
only the very rich (a LOT of very famous actors and actresses and people in the film industry) but beach houses right on the ocean. they can afford it no problem, i was in malibu beach recently and saw pierce brosnan’s house, which he put on the market for $300 mil (it didn’t sell lol but still. beachfront property is out of reach for the 99%
