<p>Let us say that you are looking for an apartment in September (not real month I need, but let's just say) of next year, when do you start searching the listings and "applying" for apartments? What would you say is a good price range for us poor college students?</p>
<p>Sometime early spring. Most people at my school look around Feb-March.</p>
<p>Also, price is completely dependent on location. Where do you go to school? Around here, a good price is around 400-700 per person every month (sans gas & electric). However, one of my friends from high school told me the high end around her school is our low end.</p>
<p>january-february. and price depends completely on location.
my friends and signed the lease for our 4br house in april though, i think.
houses are better :)</p>
<p>Timing depends on school to. At mine, people looking to live in the best/closest apartments had to sign leases by October or November for the following September.</p>
