Ok, lets first start off with that I'm a college students with two little girls and a wife...not making very much with my part time job. So to get out of my parents house, my wife and I decided to go apartment shopping...wow! Prices went through the roof....thanks cummins!
Right now I'm looking at Forest Hills on 46 towards nashville...but to get on the waiting list, we'd have to pay $40 app fee(expected) and a $50 security-hold-my-place-in-line fee(refundable for up to 72 hours) but we won't get to see what the apartment actually looks like until another 10 days or so(against company's policy to show apartments before they are ready). So $90 is non-refundable if I don't happen to like it.
Other 3 bedroom apartments in Columbus are at least $900 a month, most are close to $1400 a month unless you get one of those shady apartments with crappy managers(and awful neighbors you just can't trust).
A lot of these apartments require that you'd make 3x what rent is(which I can understand if you're paying month to month, but can't budge if I'm putting down a whole year worth of rent?!)
I'm done with my rant, Evalyn is getting into stuff....
