    Apartment Rents

    I was just reading somewhere that the occupancy rates for Austin and Houston are dropping.  This is what we expected but I think the numbers were a bit higher than we expected.  To my surprise the report said that average rents had risen.  I know the report must be behind a little because I know that Austin apartments are seeing a drop in rent right now.  Houston apartments are seeing almost the same effect.  I would imagine with the occupancy rates still dropping that rent has to continue to get cheaper over the year.  I think Houston apartments will probably see a bigger drop than Austin, but that is just speculation.  I will be expecting to see a lot of specials for move in and free rent here in the near future.  Everybody better get ready to take advantage of the opportunity this year because I don't think this will last for too long.

    The West Campus offers students a chance to live just a few blocks from campus, while enjoying all the freedoms of independent living. A perfect mix of a tranquil residential neighborhood bordering Ithaca’s Downtown and Cornell, West Campus has something for everyone. Shopping, campus and Cornell’s nightlife are all just minutes away from the West Campus.
