GTA Online's economy can be extremely unforgiving for new players who didn't manage to snag the Criminal Enterprise edition. Stranded on the street with nothing but a single pair of clothes and a car, players are meant to work their way up the food chain and build their criminal enterprise in GTA Online from scratch.
A pivotal part of making it big in the game is having a high-end apartment to conduct heists from. Here are three quick and easy ways to scrounge up enough GTA $ to get that fancy high-rise apartment.
3 easy ways to make money for a high-end apartment in GTA Online
1. Weekly bonuses
Keeping an eye on weekly bonuses is extremely important in GTA Online. Every week, at least one game mode offers 2x GTA $, sometimes even 3x the money that players would receive without the bonus. Purchasing low/medium range apartments is not recommended as heists cannot be started from there.
2. Get a friend to give you a larger cut in a heist
If players are lucky enough to have a high level friend in the game, the easiest way to farm money is to ask them for an 85% cut of a heist. The Cayo Perico heist offers the best payout for a two-man operation. With the haul from a single heist, players can not only get a new apartment, but also fill their new 10-car garage with new vehicles.
3. Complete time trials
Time trials can pay out anywhere between GTA $101,000 to $104,000 per week for just a few minutes worth of effort. The icing on the cake is that most time trials don't require a crazy fast and expensive vehicle. You can accomplish the task even with a humble Bati 801 that costs just GTA $12,000.
Completing a one-time trial combined with the winnings of a 2x event will give players enough money for a high-end apartment in less than an hour.
