What to Expect From Off Campus Student Housing

Copyright (c) 2015 College Park Apartments

Once you have been accepted to college, you need to start making arrangements for where to stay. You can choose to stay in the college dorm rooms, rent out an apartment or choose off-campus student housing communities. College dorm rooms can tend to be quite noisy and crowded with very little space while renting an entire apartment is very costly for a college student. Off-campus student housing communities provide the ideal living environment for college students. You should expect the following:

Close proximity to the college

Most off-campus student housing units tend to be within a walking distance from most colleges or universities. This allows you to stay in touch with the latest from the college while still enjoying your own privacy and spacious accommodation. You do not need to worry about commuting or spending money on gas driving to school every day since you can easy walk a block or two.

Short term and long-term individual leases

Even if you end up sharing a housing unit with other college mates, you still get your own individual lease. You can even lease for as much as 12 months. If you get a job near the campus during college vacations, you do not have to worry about how to find new accommodation with such a lease. You enjoy access to affordable accommodation all year round.

Tenant portal access

Most student housing communities are in tune with the latest demands for technology. You can even have a portal access where you can check your lease details if you need to, contact management for maintenance or even pay your rent and track your payments. This makes is a lot easier to organize your activities.

Ample parking

If you have a car or motorcycle, you are going to need free and safe parking. Off campus, housing offers ample parking areas for their residents. You do not have to worry about paying parking fees or your car getting towed.

Furnished kitchen

Kitchen appliances can be very expensive but you do not have to worry about buying new ones because most of these student-housing units are furnished with everything you need. You will find kitchen stoves, microwaves and refrigerators making it extremely easy for you to prepare your own meals.

Private baths

You can never underestimate the value of a private bathroom until you have lived in a college dorm where the bathrooms are communal. When you rent off campus, you can enjoy the privacy of your very own shower and toilet, which is also good for your hygiene.

Security

The housing communities often have security guards on patrol and a security office. So you know you are safe even when you live off campus. They will assist in solving disputes, identify and prevent potential threats as well as ensure that other tenants adhere to the regulations for the housing community.

Swimming pool

If you are lucky, you can find off campus accommodation with a pool. Granted, the college has its own swimming pool but you may be restricted on when and how you can use it.
