<p>Hey!
Im currently a freshman looking into getting an apartment next year for the Fall of 2011. I wanted to start looking early to get a good deal/choice. Im currently living at Dobie. I want to live in North Campus, 3 bed/3 or 2 bath, Parking included, $550 or less including utilities (only because im sick of paying $900/month at dobie!), nice, maybe furnished?, not too far from campus/on the bus route, and a washer/dryer included.
Oh and I'm a girl so I want something cute/homey. haha
Any suggestions?
Thanks :)</p>
<p>or possibly something in west campus with the same price/details!</p>
<p>Your not going to find something at that price. Maybe drop the utilities included and you’ll be in the range.</p>
<p>haha i kinda figured that… but are there any that are 500/month without utilites that anyone knows of?</p>
<p>your never going to get that Austin. Try 650 or 750</p>
<p>Can someone explain why it is so expensive? If you are talking 650 or 750 per person (@ 3 persons), I assume you mean the rent for one month would be between 1950 and 2250. </p>
<p>Other than being furnished, I’m not seeing why the cost is so high. It seems like 2250 a month would be more comparable to…a really nice house rental or something.</p>
<p>It is expensive because it is Austin and it is expensive because it is right around a college campus. If you are willing to have 3 people sharing two bedrooms, you will be able to find that price, otherwise, good luck. I know 3 friends who are doing just that and they pay around $600 or so a piece I believe.</p>
<p>^Bingo. And you wonder how people renting out their condos near UT make so much profit?</p>
<p>ok ok!
so the farther we live the cheaper it is?
and places that you know of?</p>
<p>If you really want 550 try Round Rock and commute to campus everyday LOL.</p>
<p>I live up by 38th/Speedway area. It’s very convenient with the IF bus. Rent is sub 500. Utilities are about 50-70 usually. Coin operated laundry in the complex.</p>
<p>I know you said you were interested in having roommates, but if you want to live alone, I live in a one bedroom/one bathroom that is $650 a month including utilities and parking. Located at W. 18th and San Antonio so it’s a 5 min walk to campus. very rare to find something this cheap.</p>
<p>yeah… im for sure going to have 2 roomies. so im looking for a 3 bed, 2 bath now!</p>
<p>(in response to hcutexas22)</p>
<p>Hey, I am interested in a 1B/1B in that price range and the location sounds great. Could you tell me the name of the place or if you know a number I could call about leasing?</p>
<p>Thanks!</p>
