How to use your dating skills to find the right apartment.

After searching apartments for the past four months and seeing over 40 different apartmenst and dating my share of guys I have learned very valuable information for anyone searching for apartments. Apartment hunting is just like finding that right guy and just like boys apartment agencies lie!

The words like beautiful and large are very loosely interpretted. You know the guy that tells you he's living large but he lives at home with his mom... yea same thing with apartments. If an apartment add uses those two words (beautiful & large) yet it is far below the price that you first anticipated paying then do not waste your time. The apartment will be ugly with what me and my roommates refer to as "baby rooms".

And for the most part that is also true for guys... if he seems too good to be true then he probably is. Probably will hit you or has two baby mama's.

The exception to this is if the apartment is placed down the street from Ray Ray and Tone. Then the apartment may in fact be beautiful with large rooms except when your friends come to visit they will be expected to buy DVD's from your next door neihbors upon arrival.


When you do finally settle for an apartment after going to see 20 or so ugly apartments with toddler rooms, there lies another layers of lies from the management company. Just like when you finally decide that he could be the one you date... then all of a sudden the real him starts showing.

Remember to keep track with exactly who you are talking with and attempt to only deal with them when turning in your application. Alot of apartment agencies make their money off of your applicaiton fee so be sure to ask exactly how many applications have already been turned in before you pay $25 to be told that someone else turned an application before you. Because that will ahppen. Before you turn in your money they will act as if your the only one.. sound familiar... and then when you call back a few days later you hear that they've given the apartment to someone else. So just be sure to ask if your the first one don't assume anything.

Also, I'm not sure how you are about having your friends around your guys but honestly don't tell your apartment searching friends about your apartment until after you've gotten it. Lucky for me none of my friends have ever stolen one of my boyfriends but I do have a set of friends that almost stole my apartment except they didn't get it either... someone else got him... I mean it.

Remember don't settle for any apartment!.... unless your in the case of me and my roommates where you have to move out of your old place in three days with no where else to go. In that case just hope it doesn't have roaches!

always&forever.
