How much was rent for your first apartment or house?

I had roomates and my share was $300 a month plus utilities and groceries

29 years ago

I paid $275 a month for a house on a lake. I lived there 3 years. It was an ok house but not in the greatest shape. I fixed stuff for my landlord in exchange for cheaper or free rent. After I got it fixed up pretty good the lady who owned it sold it. She offered it to me for a good price before she listed it to sell but it was time for me to go anyway. It’s was a good thing for me & the landlord for awhile.

My first apartment was $55 a month for a nice 1 bedroom. It was when I was in Japan.

I have lived in this apartment 18 years. I used to be able to live on my Social Security. Now it doesn't even cover my half of the rent.

I paid around 600 a month for my first apartment .

$2,000. It was in LA.

i think it was about $250/Month - for a house with 3 other guys in college...it was pretty nice too...

350.00 a month for a third floor walk up in a college town.

150.00$ a month.. but only because it was a run down old house that my friend's mom was going to let my brother stay in for free.. so long as he paid the electric .. he didn't want to stay there tho so my husband and i did and volunteered 150$ rent lol

The dude who owned it was in jail, said I could crash there free of charge till he got out. Just don’t go near the mailbox, he said. The flat was empty of any furniture or appliances. I had been living on the street till then and appreciated getting out of the weather.

I think it was 425?
It was a real small house.

$580-$600 and that was high back in the early 90s

My first house I bought in 1970 in Shalimar Florida cost $18,500. Wish I still had it. Bought it new.

We shared an apartment for about 395./mo

I Never rented🤷‍♂

$160/month. In 1967.

my very first apartment I was still going to high school, the last year, and I paid somewhere around 300euro. Later I moved to a smaller one for 180euro but it was a very small room. Back in 2004-5

For a roomy 1 bedroom basement apartment, early 2000's, I think it was $300/month or so; maybe less.

$115 a month for a one bedroom apartment in Aurora Colorado. Dec.1967

$140 for a single bedroom apartment.

200.00 a month for a 2 bedroom apartment back in 1975

I pay $350 for an average size 2 bedroom

Around $400

€290 including electricity and internet. Good old times... It's now almost double excluding services.

525 euros in ffo

£860 for a room and own bathroom

$195 a month for the first several years. Then it bumped up to $200 a month. I lived there for 12 years.

$270 something a month

$550 I think

I can’t remember. I think I paid $400/month. I shared a 2-bedroom, 2-bath with a roommate.

SOOOO long ago I don't remember -- a few hundred, I think, back in 1969

$900/month for a 3/2 apartment of about 950 sq. ft in 2003

Same apartment starts at about $2500 now. More than twice my mortgage payment after both taxes and insurance. Got my house at $145K in 2013. Same house now estimated at $400K on zillow.

Despite significant increases in my salary, I would struggle to purchase my home at today's values.

I dont remember. I pay $1500 now.

Wow! That was 50 years ago. I have no idea, but our first house cost $37,000. It was a year old, 3 bedrooms, 2 baths in a new neighborhood.
