Hi my name is Caira Button and I am a 26 year old who makes videos about tips, tricks, and organization for small space living. I love the minimalist, feminine, clean vibe. I have kept the decor pretty neutral adding a bit of mid century modern & LOTS of plants. I hope my advice is able to help you in your journey!

Words can’t explain how happy I am for you Caira! I’ve been watching you for as long as I can remember and always thought you were so underrated. Your content is so unique, interesting and enjoyable! I never understood why you were stuck on just over 3k for so long. For some reason, your videos stopped coming up in my recommended so I didn’t see your videos for quite a while. I randomly remembered you and looked up your channel and realized I hadn’t watched any of your videos in the past five months 😭 Imagine my surprise when I saw you had 12k now! Between yesterday and today I’ve been binging those videos (and making sure to leave a like ofc). I’m so happy for you with your new apartment. The filming set up is great, the apartment is beautiful and you seem sooo happy! Just want to say thank you for the amazing content and I hope the channel continues to grow!

Yes I VERY(!!!!!) much like this video. Thank you. I might need you this summer. If you could do more of these that would be nice. Smaller is better, think under 150sqft. That might be micro? Also SRO's would be interesting. Chiago used to have lots of those but don't know if they still do. Again thanks

Literally stumbled upon this video and am hoping you do another one for 2021 😩 will be messaging you soon bc this girl is ready TO MOVE OUT
I understand that the two months free make the apartments under $1300 a month, what happens when the lease runs out and the rent jumps $200+ a month? Also, when you're touring apartments you need to spend more time in them as the 30 second blips don't show you anything. And despite the windows in these apartments, they are way, way too dark.
Love this content! Thank you💖

What is the square footage on each of these? I live in Chicago and my lease is up at the end of July and want to look more downtown. So I love these videos to start getting a list of must haves/preferred haves and different areas. Of course, by then no one will know what pricing is, but I never knew a leasing agent was free for the customer so I will definitely be reaching out closer around June/July.

loved this!! thanks for sharing, I'm moving to Chicago to study for an MA this fall, and I'm international... safe to say I'm very lost and nervous, but also excited haha do you have any tips for people like me? can I also get the help of a leasing agent even if I'm not from the US? Do you recommend visiting Chicago before moving countries or do you think it's alright to get everything arranged remotely and then moving before starting classes? thank you in advance!!

Asked for this help and contrary to zillow and apartments.com was told nothing was in this price point? so I guess the season matters and if you can go out and look yourself it’s better than a leasing agent ✨

Hi Caira, my name is Martha. Thank you so much for your video. It's really gets me interested. I never been in Chicago even once and I would love too. I've been lived in NJ for a few months for my ESL class. Next year I've plan to come to Chicago to get my Graduate Degree. Do you know where is the place that you can find an affordable house? A bit far from downtown or even outside Chicago doesn't really matters as long as it's still integrated. Thank you in advance and GOD bless you 🙏😊

Loved the video! I’m moving to Chicago in June from Phoenix. Super excited. How hard is it to find a rental without a job? I work as a restaurant manager and will be doing the same in Chicago, but I wanted to take my time in finding the perfect fit once I get there. I have good credit and money in the bank. I would love to work with you once I get there!

This was really nice. Could you PLEASE(!!) talk a bit slower? I WANT(!!!!) to see more of these, especially the less than 250ft, 100ft(???). I have lived in SRO's, so I am not afraid of small. (Yes, I know I have dated myself as I think Chicago, like all the other big cities has done away with SRO's but they used to have them.) Please make more of these, please. Also could you explain the different neighborhoods, and show public transportation near any apartments you talk about. Thanks again for doing this.
Awesome video. Just moved back home from Seattle and I'm about to start a new job at O'Hare as well. Excited about that. Looking for a reasonable apartment. And I'm going to contact you to help me out. Wife lives in Canada and she's going to relocate here to Chicago in the next year or so. Thanks for the video. Make some more please.

What was the 2nd building (with the little balconies)??
Moved to Chicago in 2012 and lived witha friend on the Northside for 3 months while looking for a place. If you are looking for bigger spaces and free car parking, go Southside. Even better find an independent landlord like I did and you can avoid rent increases every year or two.
I might hit you up pretty soon. Planning on moving to Chicago in september
Can you tell me the name of the second apartment in this video? It’s the one that has the studios starting at $1138.
Wonderful video. Can you suggest some studio apartment near IIT south chicago?
@ Caira first I want to say thank you for totally understanding that my comment was out of concern and never to be mean 🙂. Now the other apartments you showed which were so freakin cute 🙂 but you never said where they were located , you told the location for the others but the ones more budget friendly u did not say what location of the city their in 🙂🙂. Those were really cute and I am sure someone will grab those soon especially for the price 🙂 well you stay safe
