Finding the Perfect Apartment Demands Careful Thought Reprinted from Off-Campus Booklet There are few pardonable errors made by students who look for apartments in Ann Arbor for the first time. The newer build- ings are appealing at first sight. They offer attractive furniture, "decorator" colors, tempting bal- conies, and modern-conveniences that seem to take care of the daily work by. themselves. Some are as pleasant after eight months of living as they appeared to be when they were first seen. Others have hidden disadvantages. Some of the older ones, though less attractive, offer the great ad- vantage of more reasonable rents and more space for the cost. These, too, may not be as advan- tageous as they appear. It is well to investigate some of the less obvious qualities in all types of housing before making a final choice. One of the most important fac- tors in. choosing an apartment is the selection of the manager or owner. A good manager often makes the difference between a pleasant and an unpleasant ex- perience in off-campus housing. He keeps his property in good condition, takes care of problems when they occur, and provides the service needed to maintain a good climate for an academic community. His rooms or apart- ments are clean and ready for occupancy when the student ar- rives in Ann Arbor; if circum- stances have prevented a cleaning crew from entering the apartment before that time, he makes a prompt and sincere effort to cor- rect the problem. It is not possible to find out these things all at once, but two indications of a good manager are his pleasant and business-like attitude when a student first visits his office, and the general clean and orderly condition of the com- mon areas and yard of his build- ing. It is well to try to talk with some of the occupants about the management in a building under consideration. The Off-Campus Housing Bur- eau works closely with managers and owners who list their proper- ties with the Bureau. Students renting furnished places through the Bureau always have access to its service of mediation when pro- blems occur. Graduates and mar- ried students, especially, who rent farther from the campus sometimes go into buildings not posted on the Bureau's bulletin board and may not have the Un- iversity's help through mediation because the building manager may not care to work with the Uni- versity. This is an important fac- tor about which to inquire when renting in Ann Arbor. Any owner or manager may register with the University Off-Campus Housing Bureau if his property is certified by the City, if he follows the pol- icy of open occupancy, and if he agrees to bring to the bureau for mediation problems he and his student-tenants cannot work out between themselves. The physical structure and plan of a building affect vitally the tenant's satisfaction. The size and number of rooms is very import- ant. Three people, for example, may find one triple bedroom much more adequate than another, de- pending upon the floor space. The number- of people using one hall- way makes a difference in 'noise transference. Sound-proofing can be so minimal as to make life miserable for all the tenants. "These factors should be personally investigated by the prospective tenant. The apartment is a completely self-contained unit with a private bathroom and a kitchen equipped with a sink, stove, and refriger- ator. A hot-plate cannot substitute for a stove according to city and state law. There is adequate win- dow space for light and ventilat- ion or, in the case of windowless bathrooms and kitchens, proper ventilation by installed fans. A basement is required by law to be two-thirds above ground. The apartment is functional, well- cleaned at the time it is turned over to the tenant, and adequately furnished with all items in good repair.
