Believe it or not, 2021 has come and gone. What felt like an extension of 2020 is now another year in the history books, leaving us with the opportunity to hit the refresh button. Despite all we’ve been through the last two years. finding the perfect apartment is still on many folks’ wish list. But there is good news: We have plenty of available units! Sit back and take a well-deserved breather. Here are three reasons why January is the perfect month to rent a new apartment.
A Change Of Scenery
Tired of the hustle and bustle of big city life? We don’t blame you. Congestive traffic, long commute times, and disproportionately high costs of living are enough to make anyone flee. Mid-size cities like Cleveland and its suburbs offer shorter commute times at just a fraction of the price. Sure, our city’s skyline may give off the impression that we’re a larger city, but our midwestern hospitality gives off small town vibes. Even better, Cleveland comes standard with a thriving food scene.
Still not convinced? A recent study showed that a change of scenery can help boost mental health. Talk about a New Year’s resolution!
Less Competition
Another beautiful thing about renting an apartment in Cleveland during January is the lack of competition for available units. Many renters dread the thought of moving in the winter, regardless of how mild the weather is. This occurrence is known as seasonal variation. Demand isn’t as high – nor are rent prices. Summer months may seem like an ideal time to move, but the right apartment at the right price will be harder to come by.
Peace and Quiet
Let’s be honest, there’s not a lot happening during the month of January. Aside from New Year’s Day, holiday celebrations come to a halt. With less on the agenda, January is the perfect window of opportunity to rent a new apartment. A quiet and undisturbed move-in is great for staying productive during the unpacking and organizing process.
Did we mention that January is great for unpacking and relaxing at the same time? Make yourself your favorite snack, grab a comfy seat. and rifle through your belongings while watching your favorite feel-good movie or TV show.
