Wow. That’s a lot of money to spend on an apartment. $84k/year? Can’t you buy a condo or home instead?

like

Not living there. Hotel would put me at slightly above that for fewer days. Planning to do 3 on 1 off and would rather an apt than hotel. So no, buying a home is a no go

is this a real question?

like

Yes.

Which city won’t get you an apartment for $7k a month? And, did you mean to say >= or <=? I have seen a lot of crazy posts and this one is right there with the worst.

I have to agree with SM1 too. It’s great to find many people to agree with on this one 😀

Im in Met Tower in SLU right now - the location is solid and the staff are friendly. Met Tower is more luxury lite, so if looking for something nicer, I would look at Cirrus and Stratus down the street, which are true luxury buildings. Regardless of what you choose, I think you'd really have to try hard to get something even close to 7k/month.

Thanks y’all, glad to hear it

You want to spend minimum 7k a month?!? Or did you mean <= 7k/ month?

likefunny

If it's the former, hell yeah - with budget being no object I will rent you a $100k/ month condo...

If it's the latter, answer is still hell yeah... 7k/month is a very good threshold... lots of good apartments available...

Folks, I have spent the last 8 years with projects in the SW/ SE where the economics didn’t make sense for something like this. Red roof in is my shiz. But I’m there 23 days on, 8/9 days off. My research shows decent places, (all in) are crazy expensive. This is a legitimate question. I want to be informed. Sorry if this seems silly.
