With the potential big move to Pittsburgh coming up, I’m starting to dread looking for a new place to live. I’ve never had to apartment/house hunt before and I’m more than a little nervous about it. I don’t really know what I’m going to be looking for, and I don’t know what questions I should be asking before signing a lease, but hopefully it will go well in the end and I’ll end up living somewhere great. But since my mother is bound and determined to help me at all times I think I’ll be okay.

A friend of mine is also in the process of moving from her parents house back to school. She has decided that she doesn’t want to live in a privately rented apartment; she wants to be in a managed building complex. After talking to her, I’m pretty sure that’s what I want to do as well just because there are so many things that can go wrong and it would be nice to have 24/7 maintenance if needed.

However, finding places like that are easier said and done. I couldn’t even begin to count the number of searches that I’ve done and even though I’m searching for Pittsburgh, I get results from all over the country. Though, if you’re looking for Property Manager in Columbus, I’m your gal and can probably point out a few!

Just don’t ask me where you can live in Pitt!
