Ann Arbor has the distinction of being the Washtenaw County seat. It is home to not only the University of Michigan, but several other excellent colleges.

Ann Arbor Apartment Hunting & Preplanning

The quest for your first apartment can quickly become overwhelming. There are numerous details involved in moving and many are often overlooked. It is better to preplan a move. Be prepared to invest some time into pre-planning your move to Ann Arbor. Investing time and effort in advance will save you a great deal of hassle and heartache down the road.

The first thing you should do is create a budget and a list of apartment must-haves. Determine your total income before listing your expenses. Open a document on your laptop or go old school with pen and paper. You will also need to create a moving budget. This will not be a recurring payment but is still essential to your move.

Your monthly cost of living is recurring. Start by listing the obvious expenses. This will help you brainstorm all your expenses. Add these as you think of them. Below is a list of the traditional cost of living expenses.

  • Apartment Rent
  • Electric Bill
  • Heat / Gas (If applicable.)
  • Cable Television / Internet
  • Vehicle Payment or Transportation Charge
  • Fuel
  • Insurance – Health, Auto, Renters’, & Life
  • Cell Phone
  • Groceries
  • Student Loans
  • Credit Card / Loan Payments
  • Entertainment

Weigh your monthly expenses against your total income from all sources. Remember that this does not necessarily set in stone. Budgets are best designed to be a bit flexible. While you should stick to it as much as possible, you must also be prepared to adjust it in the beginning and over time.

It is a good idea to revisits your budget every few months. This way you can add or remove items as necessary. You may pay one bill off or incur a new one. Your income may increase or decrease. Your budget will likely evolve naturally as you become more experienced with using it and your situation changes.

You should set up an emergency fund savings account in your new. Many people fail to understand the importance of preparing for unexpected events. If and when disaster does strike you will be able to better handle hurdles thrown your way. This type of savings fund is much like insurance against something that could happen, but you hope it never does.

Modern Apartment Search

You should now have two figures. One is your moving fund and the other is your monthly budget. Your next step is to create a list of amenities and/or apartment features you must have, those you would like to include, and items that are deal breakers.

For example, college students should consider moving close to campus and career-oriented individuals may want to be closer to work. Whether children and/or pets are welcome can be a deal breaker for some families with young and/or fuzzy members.

In the past, people looked to the classifieds of the local paper to find apartments to rent. Today, there are digital methods which make the process much simpler. You can search the local classifieds on the local newspaper or channel’s website. Apartment complexes generally have their own websites as well as Facebook business pages.

  • Hygiene Products
  • Simple Meals
  • Can Opener
  • Small Tool Kit
  • Clean Clothes
  • Fire Extinguisher
  • Toilet Paper
  • Device Chargers
  • Professional or Student Supplies
  • Laptop
  • Cell Phone
  • Pet Food / Supplies
  • Bed Linen
