  1. Furnished Versus Unfurnished Apartments in Alberta

  2. Moving away to school is exciting and comes with many new responsibilities and experiences. Choosing where you will live is one of these new responsibilities, and it's something that you will want to give a great deal of consideration to. Where you live can have a big influence on how well you do in school and your happiness overall.

  3. If you haven't already, you will soon discover that you have many options for student housing. While some students prefer to be on campus, like in a University of Alberta residence, others prefer the freedom that comes with living off-campus. Another major decision is whether you will live in a furnished or unfurnished apartment. There are pros and cons for either choice - let's take a look:

  4. Unfurnished Apartments at a Glance Some students can't wait to move into an apartment and to decorate it according to their style. Being able to choose your colour scheme, the furniture and kitchen essentials that you will want and need can feel like your first real foray into adulthood. There's also often a lot more options for unfurnished apartments, which may make it easier for you to find a place in an area that you like.

  5. The downside for some students is that furnishing an apartment can be expensive, if you don't have access to hand-me-down furniture and other items. You also have to figure out how you will get all of your furniture to the new apartment, which may mean renting a moving van or truck and enlisting the help of your family members or friends to help you move everything.

  6. Furnished Apartments at a Glance When shopping around for places to live, you will probably find that there are some Edmonton furnished suites that are conveniently located close to your campus. The obvious benefit of furnished suites is that you won't have to move much of anything in the way of furniture to your new apartment. This saves you the hassle, time and money.

  7. Places like Horizon Residence, for instance, offer students suites that come fully equipped with beds, living room furniture and kitchen essentials. Of course, if you're really keen to decorate your own place, you may not have quite as much freedom, but you can always bring items to add your own touches to the space, such as photos, posters, and more.

  8. No matter which type of living space is best for you, be sure to start your search early so that you have the best options available. As you get closer to the school year, spaces fill up more quickly.
