An expensive view. What does it cost to own a terrace in New York City? How about a terrace that fits a bar on it? Ask Carl Radke and Lindsay Hubbard. The Summer House couple hosted a housewarming party in their new digs on the April 17, 2023 episode.
Their cast mates were blown away by the decor and the view from the apartment. More shocking was the price tag. Carl and Lindsay revealed that they are paying $13,000 a month to live the high life. Portraying a perfect life, perhaps?
The Summer House couple showed BravoTV around their dream apartment. Carl and Lindsay also responded to the controversy surrounding the price tag.
Paige DeSorbo casually told Gabby Prescod, Samantha Feher, and Ciara Miller that their friends were paying $13,000 a month on rent.
“I’m sorry, what? It’s 13?” Sam said. “Where’s the ring, for $13,000?” Ciara added.
After that episode aired, Lindsay appeared on Watch What Happens Live to explain why she and Carl decided to rent. Andy Cohen asked, “Have you guys considered buying a place instead of renting?”
“Yes, and we talked about this at the [Season 6] reunion,” Lindsay responded. “So the market was so extraordinarily awful last year, and we wanted to move in [together]. COVID prices, they shot down, and then they all of a sudden inflated. The market in New York has just been tough.”
“If you break $13,000 apart, it’s $6,500 a person, which is really only $200 more than what I was paying at my last apartment,” Lindsay added. “OK, so it’s really not that crazy from my last apartment.”
During the Season 6 reunion, the couple was unwilling to make a permanent decision about their living arrangement. At the time, Lindsay said, “We’re kind of like in that stage where we’re trying to figure out do we rent and then buy a house, perhaps in the Hamptons, or do we buy in the city? There’s a lot of factors that go into it.”
The couple is still residing at Rad House in real-time. Perhaps the enviable abode will feature again in Season 7 once Lindsay and Carl get engaged. Maybe something around their autumn 2023 wedding? It’s reportedly being filmed. And if there’s any chance that Lindsay and Danielle Olivera will make up, it’s now.
