A person's arm with tattoos and bracelets reaches for a black doorknob on a blue door, with a white doorbell visible on the adjacent wall. The image introduces a comparison between an old and new townhome.
An empty 'old living room' featuring light brown carpet, plain white walls, and a window with horizontal blinds, suggesting a vacant space.
An 'old kitchen' with dark brown wooden cabinets, a double sink, a white refrigerator, and a white stove. The floor is covered with brown square tiles.

We transferred to a remodel unit over the weekend. This unit was a downgrade when it comes to the sq footage but it’s definitely a nice upgrade from our old unit. We are so happy with our new home. #new home #apartment #apartmentliving #townhome #townhouse #newbeginning
