Oh, one more thing, make sure the unit you choose is not close to the garbage chute or to the elevator!! Thanks for the tips was making notes. I agree on that sort of thing but you could possibly install a secret camera just incase Am thinking of possibly getting one, not 100% todavia but merci!

bad idea.... if you have people who walk around a lot upstairs it will really bug you
I agree been there and done that...You hear absolutely EVERYTHING and it becomes annoying. As for sleeping its always nice as long as you dont hear any squeaks. Another thing depending on how your basement is you never have good enough lighting which sucks if you're the type of person to open the blindes or windows every morning. I doubt it would be cheaper to live in a basement since renting is pretty pricey these days.

Well, I've found some nice basement apartments that have util incl plus laundry plus parking and pretty much everything I have for half of what I pay now for rent.

Bad idea ! Living in a basement, great light :thumsup: and as Miguel said, the others walking will drive you nutzzzzzzzzz in no time.
Plus., those are in houses in general right ? Do you want to see the owner everyday and feel sorry for every little noise you think you might be doing.
En otras palabras, no es vida.
Crazy woman. Well, the pricing, obviously, look were you are located and the kind of building you're at. I am sure you can find a bigger place for the same price or less, all included.
