Looking
fo
I I I
The time has come to hunt for
off-campus housing for next fall.
Finding the right kind of hous-
ing - for the right price - is
not always easy Whether it be a
modern apartment, r o o m i n g
house, or co-op, the choice re-
quires careful consideration.
More people live in apartments
than any other kind of off-cam-
pus housing. For the first time in
many years, there will be a sur-
plus of apartments next fall, so
it is wise to look carefully before
you make a decision. Many stu-
dents waited until school started
last fall before they rented an
apartment, and were able to set
a better price because of the
excess.
"We figure that we're going to
wait until next fall to rent an
apartment. With more apartments
available than students to lease
them, I'm sure that we'll save
money," Peter Bedrick, '69, Bus.
Ad., believes.
Three-, four-, and five-man
apartments should cost between
$45 and $75 per man per month
on a 12-month lease. The five-
man apartments are usually the
cheapest. Prices vary according to
location, quality, and convenien-
ces.
Apartments closer to campus
are naturally more expensive.
Quality is the most important
consideration. The better the fur-
niture and general condition of
the dwelling, the more expensive
the apartment.

Such conveniences as garbage
disposal, dishwasher, laundry fa-
cilities, free parking, and air-con-
ditioning have become necessities
as far as many students are con-
cerned, and place apartments in
the most expensive off-campus
bracket.
Some agencies are renting
apartments on 12-month leases
only - others for either eight
of twelve months. The eight
month lease can cost up to 25
per cent more than a twelve month
lease. Apartments Limited is now
leasing apartments on an eight
month contract -- for ten months
rental charges. The loss taken in
renting through any eight month
lease is generally less than the
loss taken by the tenant when
he must sublet for lower rent in
the summer.
When the lease is signed, ten-
ants are expected to pay a sum
equal to one month's rent. This
is taken as the final month's
rent. In addition, the first
month's rent and a damage de
posit equal to one month's rent
must, in most instances, be paid
when the tenant moves in at the
beginning of September.
It is very unusual for the lessee
to have a pay for any utilities
other than electricity and tele-
phone. It is a good idea to find
out which utilities require elec-
tricity in order to estimate the
monthly bill. If the apartment has
electric heat, the electrical bill
will surely be large.
In some instances there is an
extra monthly charge for parking.
At any rate, every car owner
should make sure that he has a
reserved space.
About 350 students live in co-ops.
There are four men's, five wo-
men's, and one married couple's
co-ops at the University. These
are available to anyone who is
beyond the freshman year or over
21. The roomer is provided living
quarters and eating privileges, as
well as a recreation room and
a house living room. He is allowed
snacks and leftovers. Although
co-ops afford closer living con-
ditions than apartments or houses,
they provide an opportunity to
come into contact with a diverse
group of students through plan- a
ned social activities and sports. f
Each member is required to work b
about four to six hours a week e
running the house. b
Each house sets its own rates. c
Costs in the past have averaged.
$280 for the semester (room and
board) or $17.50 per week. There h
is no problem involved with sum- d
mer subletting. In addition, mem- c
bers pay a $20 damage deposit :
which is refunded when they i
leave the system. f
Furnished houses and rooms on
campus are in demand the most.S
They are inexpensive, offer theb
most privacy, and provide at.
'home-like' atmosphere. When ar
single or double room is rented, u
cooking is forbidden by the Uni-
versity in conjunction with city
and state housing regulations. Ao
few landlords provide a refrigera- e
tor for the use of their tenants k
and even less sustain a super-"
vised kitchen.p
Furnished single rooms usuallyt
rent for $40 to $50 per month.°
Some landlords insist on a leasea
- others do not. Payments of
rent can usually be arranged with
the landlord.
Furnished doubles cost from
$30 to $40 per man per month.
A damage aeposit of between
$20 and $25 is normally requested.
In addition, the first and last
month's rent may be required upon
moving in.
Though most difficult to find,
older houses provide the privacy
that other off-campus housing
cannot. They can usually be leased
for as long as desired. Rent may
be as little as $100 per month for

BY STEVE ANZALONE
Students looking for apart-
ments this year must consider the
fact that all landlords will not
offer the same lease.
Unlike other years, most land-
lords will not use the official
University lease. The new official
lease provides for an eight month
rental period that most landlords
refuse to accept
Michael Koeneke, '69 BAd,
chairman of the Student Housing
Association (SHA), said that
some landlords stocked up on the
old leases before the new ones
were printed. Koeneke added that
the old University leases will be
legal but must now be consid-
ered as private leases.
The new lease will be the only
one issued by the Off-Campus
Housing Bureau. But the Off-
Campus Housing Bureau does ac-
cept private leases if they con-
tain the clause stating that all
disputes between landlords and
student tenants will be subject to
mediation by the University.
Some of the smaller landlords
have already changed to the new
eight-month lease. Other ones are
expected to change before fall.
But most of the larger landlords
indicate that they will not use
the new lease.
SHA is presently leading action
to seek the acceptance of the
eight-month leace by Apartments
Limited and other large land-
lords. So far none has indicated
that they will change at this time.
Besides the eight month rent-
al period there are other ad-
vantages for the student who
signs the 1968 lease. For one thing
students can expect a return of
their damage deposits.
Under the old lease students
were forced to sublet their apart-
ments for the summer. Landlords
often would not return damage
deposits until the lease expired
at the end of the summer. The
1968 lease requires the return of
the damage deposit tWenty days
after the eight-month rental pe-
riod expires.
Koeneke feels that a big ad-
vantage of the 1968 lease it its
clarity. Tenants will know ex-
actly what they are receiving and
what they are paying for.
The furnishings to be provided
by the landlord must be listed.
The new leases also call for an
agreement to be signed by land-
lord and tenant stating the con-
dition of the furnishings when
the tenant moves in.
The landlord is also required
by the new lease to present an
itemized list of any damage de-
ductions from the damage
