Gia Giudice is on the hunt for a new home.
The Next Gen NYC cast member kicked off her apartment search on Saturday, September 7, more than two years after moving back into her family’s Montville mansion. Gia documented her unit tours on TikTok and Instagram, confirming she had visited multiple buildings in Hudson County, New Jersey.

“Come with me apartment shopping,” she said on social media. “So so so excited for this new chapter in my life!! I was really exploring the Jersey City and Hoboken area. These were my two favorite buildings. Let me know what you think… I can’t wait to take you guys along with me.”
Gia, who was accompanied by her long-time boyfriend, Christian Carmichael, began by showcasing a stunning two-bedroom, two-bathroom apartment with floor-to-ceiling windows, wood floors, exposed piping, walk-in closets, and an in-unit washer/dryer.

“I fell in love with how spacious these apartments were,” she said. “I loved the open concept. The only downside: I wish there was more of a city view, but the amenities in this building were incredible.”
Gia moved on to a one-bedroom, one-bathroom unit that came with a “den.” Although the apartment sounded tiny on paper, The Real Housewives of New Jersey daughter was pleasantly surprised by its size.
“This is huge. I was in shock with how big the den was,” she said while making her way through the space. “It was literally like another bedroom. The only downside on this apartment: I wish there were floor-to-ceiling windows, but a unit is becoming available next weekend that does have floor-to-ceiling windows, and it has a den, so I’m gonna look at that unit next weekend.”

Gia and Christian made their way to a second building to see a one-bedroom, one-bathroom unit and a two-bedroom, two-bathroom unit.
“The amenities in this building were seriously insane. It felt like you were in a hotel,” she gushed. “I’m still waiting for more things to open up within these buildings, but I am so happy with what I found today, and I can’t wait to see where I end up. I’m going to tour more apartment buildings next weekend. I can’t wait to take you guys on this journey with me. I am so happy with what I saw today.”
Why is Gia Giudice looking to move out of her family home?
Gia teased her relocation plans in early June, saying she wanted to start looking for a new pad in August and be fully moved in by the end of September. So, what motivated Gia’s apartment hunt? Well, she said her increasingly busy work schedule required frequent trips to New York City, which was about an hour drive from her mom Teresa Giudice’s home.

“It’s a lot,” she told Today about the commute. “My schedule has only picked up since Next Gen NYC, which is funny, because it picked up the summer we were filming Next Gen, and no one knew that we were filming it. It’s just my career kind of started picking up, and my brand started growing, and I am in the city at least four times a week, so it’s a lot of back and forth from Jersey.”
Gia said she was considering moving to Jersey City or the Big Apple, but was leaning more toward the former as it was closer to her mother’s house.
“I’ll still spend my weekend at home, maybe every other weekend at home,” she added. “I have to see my [dog] Bella.”
