Posted by Gothic Ghoul A good lens goes a long way.

To go off this, a good 50mm prime lens is killer for Urbex. I have a 1.8f 50mm lens for an older generation canon, but I absolutely love it. Being able to open up that aperture all the way is so helpful in low light and keeps me from having to use a tripod a lot of the time. Plus it gives you a nice bokeh if you're into that. A good 28mm is always a good investment too. The wide angle helps you cover a lot more in the shot and it really useful for architecture shots.
Remember though the lower you f-stops go the higher the price is going to be.
Before you start building a full set of gear, listen to mookster. Use what you have and get good with it. The basics of photography will take you a lot further than any piece of camera equipment can.
Youtube is a great start, and a photography for dummies book is never a bad idea.
