Renting a Home is the New Trend

- Thursday, December 22, 2011

There was a time, not so long ago, when college graduates dreamed of a new home with a mortgage. It was the next step.

With an uncertain economy, and more people moving to take jobs where they can find them, renting is the rage for the Millenial generation. The new dream is renting an apartment in one of the new “destination living” communities, complete with swimming pools, state-of-the-art fitness centers, volleyball courts and all kinds of apartment amenities.

For the first time since owning has lost its luster for the young. Since 2008, the percentage of young people who think that owning a home is “better than renting” has fallen.

Renting an apartment in Roanoke, VA has acquired a sort of cool respectability. Empty nesters got the same religion a couple of decades ago, when droves of them began cashing out of their high-maintenance houses.
 
Some of the forces driving the change are cultural. People are getting married so much later and they travel light longer.

The young also gravitate to renting an apartment because mortgages are hard to come by. No one wants to get stuck with a house or condo they can’t sell when there’s a job offer 2,000 miles away. There’s no stigma to renting anymore, and there’s just so much to keep you interested and busy in an apartment community she says.

Find the Best Apartment For Your Lifestyle

- Friday, December 02, 2011

Wondering how to find the best apartment in Roanoke, VA that will fit your lifestyle. The “best” apartment certainly varies for everyone, these tips should help you find the apartment that suits you.

Know yourself

Before you can figure out how to find the best apartment for you, you have to know what you need. A good way to start an apartment search is to think about how your lifestyle affects your apartment needs. Ask yourself: what kind of apartment dweller will you be?  Do you need a quiet apartment where you can relax or study all day long? Or do you need a place to rest your head at night in between work and an active social life?

When you consider how your lifestyle affects your apartment needs, think about the following factors:

  • How much money is in your budget for living expenses?  How much can you put towards rent after you pay other life expenses?
  • Do you work 9 to 5? Are you in school? How far from work do you want to live?
  • Can you fit everything in a small studio apartment? Or do you need a one bedroom , or two bedroom apartment to accommodate your family?
  • Where is your child’s school located? Do you need a recreation area for your kids to play outside?
  • What do you do for recreation? What do you need in a neighborhood or community? Do you like to be near restaurants and shops? Do you like the outdoors?
  • Do you drive everywhere? Bike? Use public transportation?
  • Where will you walk your dog? How many times a day do you take your dog outside?
All of these questions will help you pinpoint exactly what you need and want in an apartment. In Roanoke, there are so many options, so know what you want.  If you want more information about our online special, contact Honeywood Apartments.
