Living in a student house offers independence. It can be easy to get over-excited and sign a lease on the first property you view. However, there are a few things you need to know before choosing UAB student housing.

Make sure you choose the right roommates. You may have a lot of fun nights out together, but the friends you are thinking about moving in with may not be the most responsible roommates. You don’t want unnecessary friction and problems after living together for a short time. Consider what you already know about friends you are thinking of moving in with. Also, have serious talks about cleaning, paying bills, having guests over, and taking care of pets.

Try to determine what current residents think of UAB student housing you will be viewing. Ask them if they like living on the property and in the neighborhood. Ask if they have had any issues that you should know about.

Consider how far the property is from your university. You don’t want it to take a lot of time to get to seminars and lectures. The closer you live, the less you will spend on transportation costs. When looking at a location, think about other places you will often visit and your place of work. Try to find UAB student housing that gives you easy access to all these things.
