Summertime means warm weather and fun outdoor activities. But summer is also known for a couple other things. Pesky party crashing mosquitoes and moving! Summer is mosquito season and they can certainly put a damper on your activities outdoor. Not to mention a scratchy night with red bumps! So to prevent yourself from a terrible itch due to mosquito bites, visit Mosquito.org for tips on prevention.

Now what about the other thing we mentioned summer is known for; moving.  Its true, summer is a peak moving season.  Ask any property management company, many people find that moving in the summer months is easier that moving in the winter months. So if you’re itching to move this summer, ForRent.com has the answer for you.

Americans are finding that renting an apartment is an increasingly attractive option especially considering its affordability when compared to the housing market.  But it really depends on where you live. Business Week worked with the research firm Reis and came up with a list of large metropolitan areas with the most affordable rents. You’ll be amazed at some of the average rents these large metros have!

1. Oklahoma City, OK. Average rent: $543
2. Columbus, OH. Average rent: $677
3. Indianapolis, IN. Average rent: $675
4. Kansas City, MO. Average rent: $701
5. Fort Worth/Arlington, TX. Average rent: $718
6. Cincinnati, OH. Average rent: $710
7. Denver/Aurora, CO. Average rent: $887
8. Greenville, SC. Average rent: $887
9. Houston area, TX. Average rent: $769
10. Dallas/Irving, TX. Average rent: $814

Being from Hampton Roads, VA, I am amazed that some of these larger city areas have the same, if not lower, average rents as where I live! How about you, do you find this shocking at all?

“These results are based on  metro areas with populations of at least 1 million are ranked based on average asking rent as a share of income. The highest-ranked metros have the lowest share of income used for rent. Fourth-quarter 2008 average asking rent is a blended average for all sizes of apartments and does not include landlord discounts or other incentives. The populations, incomes and rents are for the metropolitan statistical areas as defined by the U.S. Census Bureau. Click here for full descriptions of the individual metro areas.”

If you haven’t taken a look at our social media websites, you definitely need to! Especially since we write content with marketing/advertising ideas to help promote your apartment community videos. After your video goes live on ForRent.com, it is then uploaded to several social media websites such as YouTube, MySpace, Yahoo, Dailymotion, AptsVideo.com. The purpose for doing this is to make the apartment search process easier for renters; we want your community to be where THEY are. It also helps expose the property’s attractive features. This really gives prospective renters the opportunity to gage a property before going to see it.

In addition to posting it on social media websites, we also write a blog alerting consumers what new videos have come out which feeds into our Facebook Page and Twitter. This again is to encourage them to seek more information about your property and hopefully drive more LEADS to your door step!
