How To Pick The Perfect Apartment

By: |Published on: Jun 30, 2017|Categories: |

When looking for the best Apartments For Students, have a think about what matters to you. Take a look at the following list and put in order of priority what is the most or least important to you. Then you can use it as a guide on how to pick the perfect apartment.

  • Location – is it an exciting/ safe/ peaceful area to live in – what kind of area are you looking for?
  • Décor – are you hoping to have beautiful surroundings and excellent décor? There is some fantastic new student accommodation that has popped up in Leicester for next term.
  • Added extras – as well as a great apartment, are you looking for all the mod cons, such as a washing machine, dishwasher, flat screen TV etc?
  • Close proximity – to lectures, the best local night spots and eateries, or to public transport links – what is most important to you?
  • Access to public transport – can you get to where you need to be on foot, or is there a good bus route nearby?
  • Cost – what is your budget? Once the rent is paid, will you have money left over for food, bills, going out etc.
  • Security – is there CCTV or an onsite security team, secure bike storage etc?
  • Flatmates – are you happy to share, do you have friends already that you want to share with, or would you prefer to go it alone?
