I procrastinated last year about procuring an apartment for school this year, as a result I got stuck in a bit of a dump, it's quite homely but it's almost a hundred years old (my school is in the original Capital of Canada, very heritage oriented). It's 600 bucks. Thats just the going rate in the student area of town for a 1 bdrm apartment.

It doesn't have a dishwasher, the heating is dicey at best and it always feels like there is a draft and I've been misbilled for my electricals so my bill for that is around ~200 alone, unless something has really screwed up on my end.

Anyways yesterday I preleased a new apartment which is an 8 months lease for 850 per month a little bit further from campus, and should be finished being built by the time school starts (fortunately).

It even comes with maid service once a week to clean your washroom and kitchen :laugh:

Pics of what it will kind of look like!

kitchen

Brick and Limestone

Long View

Bathroom

It's got a walk in closet and a jacuzzi tub, internet is included in the rent, everything is ploughed, my place is insured by the rental company. Mine is going to be a 1 bdrm though.

Meh, I like!

I was reformatting them, the leasing company's website is very well designed, but poorly executed and needlessly complicated.

Vancouver? I thought it was more expensive than that. Sounds nice, though I can't see the pictures.

I'm not in Vancouver right now unfortunately, school calls me to Ontario.

Vancouver is MUCH more expensive, my ex's apartment downtown was 2400 a month

:Q

Though you can get apartments downtown for 800-900 bucks they aren't that nice at all.

My parents said they'd rather have me live in a nice apartment where I don't have to deal with the noises of my neighbours because there is no soundproofing, or freezing at night.

The electrical bills of the place i'm at now offsets teh increased costs of the new apartment anyhow.

Living on mommy and daddy's dime FTW

Yeah I actually feel quite guilty about it, but they insisted.
