Apartment Hunting Internet Style | Free Financial Today

Monday, April 26th, 2010

Oooh, it’s a slow news day.  This is the best I could find this morning.  Nothing new — you are probably already using the Web to search for apartments.

I do disagree with the statement, “You can find out all the information before spending your time going to each apartment building.”  You can find out a lot online, but not everything.

You definitely want to  visit your top three options, and physically go into the actual apartment you would be occupying.

In St. Louis apartments, there can be a big difference between a community’s display apartment and the unit you will physically occupy  — words of wisdom  from the Apartment Search experts!

There are many benefits to search for a new apartment over the internet; this is because you can find out all the information before spending your time going to each apartment building.

Come for Splash Day at Pheasant Run!

Monday, April 19th, 2010

I like supporting worthwhile causes, and this is a great one.  It benefits kids with cancer, and features an early-spring pool plunge by Pheasant Run’s property manager. 

Aaah, Splash Day is the perfect combination of (mild) human suffering, rewarded with humane generosity.  Stop by and drop off a few bucks this Saturday. Or just send a check — that’s what Apartment Search is doing! (Address is on the attached link).

Splash Day is Coming!

Village Green’s annual fundraiser, Splash Day, first began 19 years ago with a dare. Because we traditionally open our apartment community pools in early April, often before swimming-friendly weather, a manager accepted a dare to take the plunge, but only if pledges were made for donations to a worthy cause.

Since then, Village Green has donated up to $50,000 a year to various charities with Splash Day efforts from each of its regions. Our goal is to raise pledges for the St. Louis -based “Friends of Kids with Cancer” – http://www.friendsofkids.com/

Sunday, April 11th, 2010

Hard to believe discrimination continues in this day and age, but it does.  Tolerance is a much-needed value in today’s world – not just in housing, but in life.  Remember the old adage, “You can’t judge a book by its cover.”  So don’t.

RENTON, Wash. – A Renton apartment manager, along with the apartment building’s owners and property management company, has been charged with violating the fair housing act.

The Origin Of April Fools’ Day

Thursday, April 1st, 2010

Prank-pulling has been an April 1 tradition for more than 500 years.

Who was the first joker to put a frog in the teacher’s desk? What clown originated the idea of rearranging his friend’s apartment and putting all the furniture on the roof?

Nothing Better Than a Satisfied Customer!

Friday, March 12th, 2010

When I started thinking about moving, I got online and started searching for places to rent.  When you don’t know a certain area it is so hard to figure out exactly where to start looking.  All the online websites require you to really know the area you are looking at or you have to search through hundreds of apartments that meet your criteria but might not be where you want.

Your service is so much better.  You give what rent.com or apartments.com etc offers, a database of all the rentals, only you give someone personal service and information about the area and each rental…….why wouldn’t a renter use you!!  I did, and I will again.

Is The Apartment Gym Useless In Resident Retention?

Friday, February 26th, 2010

If you build it, they will come, right? But the question should be: If you build it, will they stay? Are your amenities designed only for the initial lease, or are they designed to give value on an ongoing basis to your residents year after year? With this in mind, I think we need to reevaluate our amenities with resident retention in mind, and see what is really making an impact on the renewal decision.
