Unreal Posted May 27, 2010 Share Posted May 27, 2010 Well that isn't an issue. My current renter has family in all the time staying over. I got 2 guest bedrooms setup just for friends/family to crash. Just saying it could be a possibility to look into. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrueWhiteBoy Posted May 27, 2010 Author Share Posted May 27, 2010 True, I guess it is a case by case basis. Alright, I'll add it to the search. I just don't like being a burden to others if I can avoid it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrueWhiteBoy Posted June 3, 2010 Author Share Posted June 3, 2010 and back to burdening I go It seems that Sandy and Draper seem to be good inbetween areas (SLC and Pleasant Grove). I notice that I haven't heard anything about South Jordan as it appears (at least on a map) to be in a good area, at least in terms of distance. Any thoughts/concerns about South Jordan?

Hops Posted June 3, 2010 Share Posted June 3, 2010 South Jordan is decent... Not my choice of places, but it is growing and there is a lot of new development out there. A ton of new restaurants and shopping have been popping up all over. Freeway access kind of sucks. I think Bangerter Highway is the only thing out there. I live on the border of Sandy/Draper and I love it. Was a bit hesitant to buy a house in the area after growing up in Foothill/Sugarhouse area, but now I love it. Buy my cars!

Unreal Posted June 4, 2010 Share Posted June 4, 2010 Depends where in South Jordan, just like where in West Jordan. There are pockets of very very very nice houses hidden in those areas. I live right on the border of murray/west jordan/taylorsville and south jordan is only 1 mile south. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beastarino Posted June 4, 2010 Share Posted June 4, 2010 I havn't spent a whole lot of time in south jordan but the 'older' parts of West jordan ( not far from South ) alot of the homes have bars on the windows, and are fairly trashy - imo - Its not a place i would pick ( west jordan ) South jordan you might run into some of the same problems. I really like the Murray, Midvale area's My house (brand new town home) is 2 mins from the free way assuming i hit both lights, and that puts me about 15 mins from anywhere in the greater salt lake valley. My old apartment which i really liked in Midvale, was the Brighton Place appartments. I really liked them, The apartments were really big, and for the most part the whole place was really clean. They allow pets, and I threw some pretty outragous parties, and they were very loud, only ever had the neighbors come ask us to be quiet once. Never had the cops called. They are a little pricey but definatly worth it. 2 bedroom 3rd floor with fireplace, loft and a pet, was 850/month. It was like a condo, my only complaint was lack of counter space.

TrueWhiteBoy Posted June 4, 2010 Author Share Posted June 4, 2010 Yeah, I'm trying to save money, so I'm trying to avoid paying more than I do in rent now ($700), for that reason I'm trying to find something less than $630, ideally with a dog (I hope to get a dog should I move out, figure it might make it a bit more fun).

Euclid Posted June 4, 2010 Share Posted June 4, 2010 There are quite a few apartments around 10600 S. and I-15 area. I'm not sure how much they cost, but it's close to the freeway and in a pretty good area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My first floor 1BR w/ Garage and no pet is around $900 a month. I live in a nice apartment, but not top tier either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brady Posted June 6, 2010 Share Posted June 6, 2010 Yeah, and Denver isn't really out of line with Minneapolis either. About the same really. The only difference there is that a similar apartment I had in Minneapolis actually included heat (not electric). Apartment I had there was about $750-800/month with a garage space as well, also first floor, but the building was about 50 years old - not as "nice" (appliances weren't as nice, didn't have Washer/Dryer included like I have now, interior "details" were much cheaper/older). I guess I don't know if I've always lived in expensive cities or if Salt Lake is cheap. Compared to my friends in San Jose/San Francisco, I've always felt good about what I paid for where I lived!

TrueWhiteBoy Posted June 6, 2010 Author Share Posted June 6, 2010 Yeah no kidding, Orange County is kinda up there too, especially if I want anywhere decent near where I work. I'm currently in a nice place (decent neighborhood) 2/2.5 townhome and our rent is 1450. Granted the housing market has gone down further since we moved in 1.5 years ago, but it was a hell of a deal at the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hops Posted June 7, 2010 Share Posted June 7, 2010 Salt Lake Valley varies quite a bit depending on where you go... Sugarhouse area you're looking at about $1400/mo for something similar. Buy my cars! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
