The Starmer family in Florida spent $69,000 converting their garage into a rent-free apartment for their son to support his startup, which also became a successful side business for them by sharing renovation plans and courses online.
A video tour of a tiny studio apartment in Greenwich Village, Manhattan, has gone viral on Instagram, showcasing its unbelievably small size and high rent price of $2,300 per month. The apartment, which is barely one room, has a short hallway leading to a bathroom and a tiny plot serving as the bedroom, kitchen, and living room. Despite its size, the unit boasts a prime location in Greenwich Village, with a single large window, exposed brick wall, and a dishwasher. While some viewers criticized it as a "glorified prison cell," one person immediately signed a lease due to its perfect location and price.
