Give this Video a Thumbs Up if I should rent this??

I was born in SA and moved to Canada… it’s been 15 years and I’m still very much attached to home! These videos make me so happy!

Cape Town rent is probably the highest in the country

I love how comfortable you look in Cape Town! I’m in the UK now.. and I miss Cape Town like crazy! Thank you for being consistent ❤️❤️

Greetings Juian! I am a 63 yo FAN...yes honey & I have been following you since you were living in Mexico. I enjoy every one of your broadcasts. You are such a lovely person, great attitude and having fun living. Please keep looking for an apt. - your heart was not in this one!

It’ was so nice meeting you @Chicken licken (cape town / Addely street ) today . Such an amazing person , love your vibe . Can’t forget how we struggled taking a picture because of lighting and hight issues 😂😂… Absolutely love your videos ❤️

Best thing to do in Cape Town.. From my experience.. speak to the security guards in buildings.. they usually know a lot.. like ask them if there’s someone renting out a unit etc x

That British accent when you said..."can I look at the bedroom"😂😂😂😂

Hey Julian. I think you should check out apartments in Woodstock. There are modern apartments and the rent is reasonable.

Julian you’re famous in Cape Town my beautiful son. Praying you find what you’re looking for.

Personally I’d go with a black realtor, especially in Cape Town as a black person

Hey babes...I don't know why your notification are not ringing through but popped up once I logged in...I'm mad. I love you so much my beloved. I feel like you're my little brother so when I see your videos they make me happy.

Yesss! So glad too see you! You’re looking fabulous.💜

I love how friendly you are! Beautiful energy 🦋✨ I liked the dark accents in the kitchen. Not a lot of sunlight tho :/ I find it so interesting these apartment come fully furnished!

That shower floor!🙌 Keep looking Julz.

Broaden your search area to outside of the cbd itself and youll see how prices drop

For the price I would suggest you take it. You can always get a big rug to cover the carpet. and then you can look for what you really want knowing you are not paying too much where you live so you won't be pressured to rush your decision

You are one cool individual who deserves all the happiness in the world 😍❤🇿🇦

Yeah that’s a lot of money for a place with no kitchen! Glad you’re shopping around. That place we toured was cute!

Cape Town rent is the highest in South Africa. You need too be making very high salaries to afford rents, especially in certain areas like the City Bowl, Green Point and Sea Point. Possibly look at areas like Woodstock or Observatory, still close to the city yet more affordable. Love you videos. Making me miss Cape Town.

Hey julian ,Keep it as back up but keep looking until you get something in a great area with all the amenities(Clean Modern Bathroom and Clean modern kitted Kitchen) that you need and the right price.

It’s really nice! Go for it!

You are making my choice to go to Cape Town for my 40th exciting

I loved the building.

Just be warned of the noise from the drummers and dancers downstairs on Saturday mornings. It's hectic! It's a lovely location but for me it was very depressing living in a dark apartment with no terrace.

keep looking and take your time

Nice place Julian.price point security sounds great. While looking try to look at 2 or 3 in 1 day. You know they always want an answer by the day of or next...RUSH 😌 good luck.

That’s a nice apartment. I think you should give it a try!

From RealSouthAfrica with the Blantons to Unapologetic Nomads with Ala Micki and her husband in Jhb to Julian Albino in Cape Town, Lately African Americans are making their mark in Africa. So no one is gonna say anything about Cape Town being clean,calm and quiet?

you are glowing in Cape Town x

R14,500 rands? its a swedish price = around 8500 swedish kr, so South Africa is not cheap anymore. Probably better to buy, its cute little apartment. Im not sure if I would take it because its small and not much free space. Thank you for taking us along.

The carpet looks a little funky, but it's a nice and secure place at a good price! Hesitation means you should not do it!

You might want to check out Bloubergstrand. About 14 Klicks North of downtown. We stayed there the last time we were in Capet Town. Real nice up there and I think there is public transportation.

That’s a real nice apartment 👍🏽👍🏽

I love the video👌❤️, but not the apartment.Please do try property 24, you'll find tons of apartments there that suit any budget.

Keep looking you might have to find something outside of Cape Town. Since so many people want to live there it might be hard to find the perfect luxury apartment within your price range.

I saw comment which I like. If it is 70 % of your wants and 100% of need then move forward. You can put down strategic rugs to cover carpet. You need to reduce costs ASAP and get a better feel of CT.

Keep looking you will get something nice...

I hate brown/green carpets in my house......they are a no no. Brighter makes my day.

That carpet looked dirty too😬

I think you should get a long term Airbnb while you still looking for an Apartment ..I miss my hometown :)

Great Job

It's just okay frien. I think you should keep looking around. You like the finer things in life and that ain't it! You didn't leave the U.S. to settle. That carpet was disgusting, the natural light was a bust and that shower floor was grotesque. Absolutely not! You would cringe putting your feet on that tile and deep down you know it. Anywho, I never comment but I had to. Love your channel and have been watching your journey since the beginning. 🤎🥰 You've definitely inspired a lot of Americans to visit SA bc of your vlogs. 🤎🤎🤎

Not for you!! Keep looking! I know you will find something better 😌

Dropping by! 🖤

I liked it, but that boo boo brown carpet was yucky... keep lookin, you got til Tuesday. Keep'n it 💯 Bruh.

Please look at sea point and Greenpoint....I viewed some nice apartments in that area.Good luck finding a place.I had a issue also with the 2months deposit.

It's a no for me.. We go crazy seeing you. I met you in Sandton and I felt soo awesome. You are such a vibe.. 😍😍😍

If you still got time, keep looking.

The shower floor and carpet not okay. I did not feel it Julian 🥰🥰

The background looks familiar to Miami

You should come to Johannesburg- Hallmark House is a beautiful space to live in. You’d love it.

I love it.....I want it for myself lol

First one here !!! 🥺🥺❤️❤️

Keep looking away from the CBD, I stay in Blouberg it quite cool

I really like this place for you

I think keep looking.

Keep looking bro

Darn y'all are being ripped off in Cape Town 😕

Take this one Julian

That apartment is not for you. I would say keep looking. There’s plenty of rentals in Cape Town.

If they can replace the carpet take the apartment. The bathroom is not so nice either but you are not there to live forever. You can get cheaper places but then you will have to pay a lot of money in uber to get in and out. Or you will have to take them white minibuses with the crazy drivers.

Keep looking

R15000 for a studio apartment ? 🙄😧 I paid that for a three bedroom triple story with: game's room, pool, jacuzzi, home office and maid's quarters. in JHB. They are ripping you off!

Planning on going to cpt this coming month …can you recommend some of the great places I could go to ?

If a place has 70% of what you want and 100% of what you need then you should get it. Two months deposits is not bad , you are spending that in a place that you are not happy living in.

Keep looking, it was too small for long term comfort

We love you here sweetie

Have you looked at Waterfront Portsedge apartments?

Reasonable price, I didn't like the carpet either.the bathroom was nice also they should clean a place before showing it.Honestly if you are anxious to get out of hotel and the cons are not to bad go for it and you can still keep looking.Best wishes for a place you can be happy

I feel like its too small even if its just you, I feel like a place you choose to stay you should feel comfortable and nothing about that first one looked comforting. Keep looking🤭

Keep looking 😝😎

I miss Cape Town....

Thats very good for the price its cape town not joburg most people who commented on last video are probably from joburg because I was one of the few who said for the price point and area its decent ,the rest of sa don't understand cpt market unless you from cpt.I say take it for that price.cpt housing market is overinflated compared to rest of sa.

I like it

Did you find a place? I was told by a local to never trust by paying a security deposit. ? I'll look a couple more weeks but then I must buy a flight onward if nothing good happens.

50k subs run it up bro

2nd one here🤗

This reminds me a lot of an Albanian apartment

Thinking about becoming a digital nomad , could you estimate an average amount for rent at somewhere nice like this ?

Keep looking. smh I'm from the U.S. Why are they allowed to randomly increase the rent monthly?? Smh I don't like that.

Hi Julian, I am curious about something 😅 I seem to remember some time ago you said that you don’t cook, but I noticed that twice during this viewing you mentioned the importance of the kitchen for you. Please don’t think I am knocking that, one of the most important things for me is ALWAYS the kitchen. Like you, I left home as a “non-cook” but, after living in the UK for a while and craving some of the food my mom used to make, she was Jamaican/American, I started dabbling in the kitchen and because of my formulation science career, I quickly became quite good at cooking. Anyway, what I am curious about is, so, have you now started dabbling in the kitchen and have you learned how to cook ? Don’t “settle for a place” that is not really what you want. Perhaps you could try to find an interim Airbnb or short term apartment which hopefully might be cheaper than your current situation, while you continue your search. As always, I wish you all the best. 💕

Take it....prices are going high

Beautiful apartment, your video so clear. What camera are you using to do your video?

The apartment is too small for me. Plus, I have a lot of clothes and shoes. That is what I have noticed about apartment in various countries. It’s like that have the same clothes that last them for 2 weeks.

Cape town is Really expensive keep searching

It's nice but not the best though

Does it have a window in the bedroom

Oh can't believe u were in my block lol I will urge u to take how much is it

Cape Town is known for two months in advance deposit. Eisj. Issa lot

In Johannesburg a place like that is like R6000

It looks good itz nice Alsmilez-* :+)

The carpet and shower floor made it a no for me.

If you can make it in Cape Town you can make it any where

How much was that apartment pet month in USA monies?

😭🤣😂😅🤣😂😊Julian🥲🤣😂😅 gurrrl stop!!! In South Africa 6 months and changing your accent!!! “Can I look in the bedroom” 😅😂🤣! So funny

Get disposable masks, they're less environmentally friendly but you can comfortably breathe through them. You can tell you get out of breath in the cloth ones.

Hey Julian,I think the apartment is too pricey.Please keep looking for a cheaper place or move back to Johannesburg where rents are reasonable.

Air BNB while you're here, don't rent. You'll get utilities and WiFi included.

Where am I gonna sleep?? Next LMAO
