Don't you want to move to San Fracisco? Pay 1800/mo for a bunk bed in a room with 4 people

Sounds great for when you first move to the city and are looking for a real apartment.

Ridiculous. I have a whole small house with a garage apt. for a little over $1000 a month.

R1 = Barbara Bush

30 Day rental, pay up front,

No huge deposit or background issues or commitment.

It obviously fills a need, or nobody would use it.

No. no it does not.

From reading between the lines it seems like they prey on a lot of international people who are moving to the city and probably don't know how to navigate better options.

That's really hot. Nonstop orgy.

People. Are we still feigning ignorance?

A G E ND A 2 1.

Maybe your internets aren't working.

I live in the Central Coast of CA and pay 2/3 of that for a 2 bedroom house!!

W&W for R3.

you can't even find a studio in NYC for $1800 but students do it to live in the SF

It is what it is living in SF is expensive

My stall costs $1800/day.

SF has rent control, NIMBY-ism and absurd obstacles to make new housing. For example between 2010 and 2015 permits to build over 170,000 new housing units were applied for. The city approved about 300 of them. So developers got only 0.17% (not seventeen percent) of applications.

San Franciscans do everything they can to prevent new housing (actually this is a problem all over desirable areas of CA), and then boast about how "good" they are.

Why didn't we see THIS on Looking?

This will be the future of America, in fact, the first world. Mark my words.

This comment was posted by "Joshua Monster" below the CBS SF story. Obvs, no idea if he's a legit resident or the landlord...

[quote]This is bulls**t! Dear retarded person who reported this news, please do your job honestly. I personally lived in this project recently, slept on a bunk bed in a room with 3 decent people (not as you said with random "stranges", because as you said again, they first interview with you! And then you're accepted if you are a good and a trustworthy professional!) I never paid that money you huge swindler! As it's even being said on their website you warped the whole truth. It's only $650 for a month in a 4 people room. It's not $1800 you wanton fake reporter! The price you give is for only a private luxurious room that you could live with yourself! Hey people, please don't believe this dumb person's news and just stop by there to see how nice these people are! Living and finding a place in SF is a damn trouble! You should be grateful for these people and to have this clean-neat place with this beyond belief affordable prices with cool people. And you probably did not even want to mention about it the food is even included to the price in this house! You just eat what ever, when ever you want fully organic and healthy in this house with no money from the full packed kitchens! Who knows what's your purpose making this warped news. Maybe you were just chasing some benefits from some ultra swindler hostel-hotel owners or some other establishments which is the actual reason of the rent price increase in this city? So this news is fully bullsh*t and fully distorting the truth. If you want to see the real you know the address right now. Just check it out, I'm sure those people are just going to welcome you! Please do not believe everything you see on the internet! There are a lot of malicious intentions in this news!!

R13, have you ever actually seen San Francisco? Where are all those poor, put-upon developers going to build and how much of it are they planning to make low and middle income housing? That's what is really needed but developers only want to build high priced properties. There are plenty of those and it's not as if most of the land hasn't been built on already.

I wouldn't take the disappointed whining of property developers too seriously.

The mayor lifted the ban on new housing a couple of years ago. They have been building like crazy on any empty space they can find. No more parking lots in the city, it's all turned into McLofts now. All of the new housing is sold way before it ever is completed. New rental units being built are starting with sky high rents though.

That guy quoted at R16 is obviously the landlord. Maybe a troll hoping to get a bunch of people to go by there and bother people.

R7 Huh? Elaborate.

I call bullshit on R2. Exactly where is your house and garage apartment? Hunter's Point?

It's 2020 now and no, a bunk bed is not all you can get for $1800 in SF.

You could get a large room in a house with a couple other roommates. You could get a studio in one of the outer neighborhoods.

I’d rather live a few hours outside the city for way cheaper and just visit the city on weekends. Honestly, during the weekday while working, how often do you take advantage of the things the city has to offer (museums, etc)?

There's already been repeated thread after repeated thread on this OP. Why did you find it necessary to come here and start another? Why? Why OP? Can you give us an intelligent, honest answer? Can you? Why would you come here and post this kind of shit yet AGAIN when there have already been so many prior threads on this EXACT same subject. Do you really think this is that damned interesting that it warrants another entire thread to be started? DO YOU??

Why couldn't you have done a search first OP? That would have been the polite thing to do. What you demonstrated was just plain selfishness. You have shown that you don't think about anybody but yourself. It's all about you and your own satisfaction. Next time before you post, do us all a favor and do a search. We don't need another duplicate thread just because of your laziness.

^ OP did search, dumbass.

This thread was bumped from 2015.

If I could afford to live in San Francisco I'd live in Manhattan instead.

People who bump 5-year-old threads get cancer.

Agree r26. San Franciso is as expensive or more than Manhattan, but New York just offers a lot more.

"San Franciso is as expensive or more than Manhattan, but New York just offers a lot more."

Take-out in NYC is much better.
