Tips for finding your first apartment
- 1. TIPS FOR FIRST APARTMENT FINDING YOUR Find a property that is close to campus. Thats especially important for freshman students, who are still finding their way. Choose a student housing property, which offers programs tailored for college students instead of just a box in which to live. Ask how the model apartment you are shown differs from the one you will rent. Take a left-turn on the property tour to make sure the rest of the property is not significantly different from the parts shown to you by the leasing consultant. Drive around the property and visit it at night. You want to make sure it is the type of environment in which you will feel comfortable living. Read the lease because it is a binding document and represents a long-term commitment. Ask what is included in your monthly rent (e.g. cable, utilities, etc.) and make sure to plan for any costs that are not included. Make the trip to campus from the property to see how much time the trip takes and whether you can walk/bike to campus. CollegeAnnex.com Find Your College Home
