A word of advice: don’t sign a lease until July. Seriously. Right now, all of the apartment complexes are claiming to have really great deals - it’s a bunch of BS. There are WAY too many apartments in Gainesville for college students to fill, and prices will drop as it gets closer to fall semester and complexes realize they’ve still got vacant buildings. My friend who signed a lease at one complex in March is paying $550; her roommate signed three months later and is paying $395 AND gets a better parking spot!
