How can I lock down an apartment while I am abroad and unable to look at places in person? What are the things one must keep in mind in such a case?

What about low income or income restricted apartments for those who need housing and can't afford 2000-2500 a month?

@yagerr4279 Жыл бұрын

Apply for HUD asap. The waitlist is long and shelters are filling up quick

I wouldn't suggest moving to one of the most expensive cities then

@chitownracing Жыл бұрын

Are these rules specific to Boston the city? What about surrounding suburbs, mainly for security deposits and broker fees, is it generally the same?

Weird that most of the country does just fine without broker fees and agents being injected into the process.

Hi Jacob, are there furnished off-campus students' apartments in Boston.

@LivingBoston 2 жыл бұрын

It depends; they don't always come furnished, but some do. Sometimes furnished options are available for short term rentals. What areas and price points are you interested in? I can see what furnished options are available

@freddieadjei3876 2 жыл бұрын

anywhere around Northeastern. My budget is $750- $800 I don't mind sharing with another International student.

@JMM33RanMA 2 жыл бұрын

@@freddieadjei3876 Sorry to butt in, but with your budget, sharing is likely to be the only affordable way to go. Somewhere along one of the T-lines to downtown would be cheaper. Like most Universities, Northeastern student service might be able to help you find a place or room-mates. One of the grad students in my building was complaining about getting to NU because the commuter line bypasses the station requiring going into Boston and changing to a subway line; Green and Orange lines serve NU, but the connection is the problem as is the scheduling.
