Finally, after two weeks of looking at bedrooms, kitchens, washers, dryers, full baths, half baths and three quarter baths, we have finally found our apartment.

We were not even scheduled to see this apartment, nor had any plans to. One reason is that the apartment was not listed in any of the rental websites and it just so happens that it is close to an apartment complex that we are scheduled to see so we decided that there would be no harm in looking.

Turned out be a diamond in the rough. This place is the best we've seen and is within our price range and so we gave our application with no hesitation and within 2 hours, we got the phone call and got the approval.

Our long wait to find our apartment paid off big time and we will spend next week shopping for furniture for our new place. We have only agreed on a short 6 month lease period so that we will have an option just in case we want to get our own place.
