What's up bros, in the process of buying my first house right now In here for the inspiration, I'll have 3 bed/1.5 bath all to myself but I love seeing what some of you guys are able to do with 1 or 2 rooms. I'll be sure to contribute pics when the time is right as well.

Take it one room at a time. Buy quality over quantity and TAKE YOUR TIME! Sell your old stuff on craigslist and put it towards the good stuff.

i thought we were all sleeping in bed together?

hahaha. Oh and you wouldn't believe the deal I got on a Walton Sofa from West Elm. $500 from Craigslist. Lady said it wasn't her style anymore. Brand new.

[flyny]

Fam got all that space, Midas whale put a stripper pole in there and get some instagram girls to bust it open like a pomegranate in the summertime

Finally had some time today to put up two images I had rasturbated. One's Van Gogh's Starry Night and the other is Bob Marley.

Anyway, I said I'd put up a few pics but I haven't really had time to organize like I wanted to.

So far I still need to grab an TV stand, a dining table, and a chest of drawers. Debating on a coffee table but I'm not sure. Kinda digging the idea of the extra space. Been buying everything piece by piece. Truly doing it on my own for the first time. A lot of empty space to fill, but that comes along with it I guess. Here's a few pictures I snapped today.

It's crazy how time flies, man. Today will be my last day in this place. It's been a hell of an experience in this apartment. Stories for days. On to the next adventure though.

That Bona & a wide base swiffer works Golden for our floors. You can pick up both at Home Depot.

Dope fridge, but it would drive me absolutely crazy that it protrudes so far past the cabinets.

Alonsogif.. Reminds me of the time I helped my cousin last summer install a over the range microwave and it had a gap that can be seen if ur coming down the stairs and staring at it.. My bed

i certainly dig smaller units and this one is decent looking (except those cabinets) but 

 at the price...

This 291-square-foot studio unit, which Curbed San Francisco identified as the tiniest condo for sale in the city, just sold for $415,000—after a bidding war that jacked up the price nearly 40 percent. 

The asking price was $299,000, and buyers instantly recognized this little cupboard's price point as a steal. An all-cash buyer won out and the home went from listed to sold in less than in a month.

The sales price doesn't only speak to how competitive San Francisco's market is right now; it also speaks to the ridiculously fast pace at which the city's home prices have grown over the past decade. Not even 12 years ago, this same unit was purchased for just $155,000. The home has nearly tripled in value during a decade that included one of the largest and deepest housing crises the nation has ever seen.

So what did the buyer get for all that cash?

Zero bedrooms, no real kitchen, one bathroom and less 300 square feet on the second floor of a 33-unit building; click here or on a photo for a slideshow. The unit itself is just one room (unless you count the bathroom, which does have a separate door!). The "efficient electric kitchen" touted in the listing is really scarcely even a kitchenette, just a tiny stove, fridge and sink squeezed into a wall. There's a Murphy bed that pulls down into the living room, and a built-in desk by a window.

But at least the overhead is small—just $289 a month goes toward the homeowner's association and the listing boasts that a bank of solar panels helps keep utility costs low—so maybe that somehow helps this owner or investor feel better about spending nearly $1,500 per square foot.

For the record, that puts the price-per-square foot in the same ballpark as Spelling Manor  or even Le Palais Royal in Florida  (currently on the market for $139 million), and those properties have acreage, to say the least.

I feel you man. We're gonna revamp the entire kitchen in about a year, new layout and cabinetry. The kitchen is probably my least favorite room in the entire home. The cabinets are straight doodoo. That angle is more drastic than head on.
