I've found an apartment! I go in for paperwork tomorrow, with the down payment in hand, and the unit will be available for move-in on Saturday.

Specs:
Apartment -
1 Bedroom
1 Bath (separate from bedroom, glassed-in tub/shower with privacy window)
640 square feet
Electric kitchen (range and oven. Fridge space, but no fridge. I'll have to find a Best Buy)
Water and garbage utilities paid in rent
3rd floor apartment (window faces ocean, giving ocean breeze. Good thing, as there is no AC)
Cable-ready
Rent = $800/month

Complex -
Gated community
Heated pool (3 1/2' - 8 1/2' deep)
Community barbecue
Laundry room
Underground parking (assigned spaces, free storage units)
Mixed community (20% students, some elderly, some families)

Location and surroundings -
Park Ave., off Atherton
Good neighborhood
Close to campus, department stores and grocery stores
Shuttle stop within 50 paces of the complex (free rides to campus every 30 minutes)

Sounds like you got a pretty sweet deal. Congrats. Now you can put up the toy rack.

exactly. But I'll need toys to fill it! (Birthday is 22 July, for those interested)

Okay, I'll let them know.

Have fun making the place yours.

Excellent! Is this the one above the restaurant supply shop?

[selenesue.livejournal.com]

Oops, no it's not. Sorry, running on old data.

Yeah, the one above the restaurant supply store became immediately unavailable. The owner of the building is selling it to a company that is coming in, gutting the place, refurbishing it and reselling it. As such, they probably won't want a college student living there.

Congrats! It sounds like a great deal.

cool!

Wow...

Is that about par for the course for Long Beach? Down in OC that would probably cost you 200-400 more.

*sigh* I want to get out of here...
