Normal vs Awesome Amenities

Written by Moveforfree on December 15, 2010 – 4:23 pm -

When you are looking to move into a new apartment community one thing you may look for are what kind of amenities that property has.  An amenity in this sense can be described as “any feature that provides comfort, convenience, or pleasure.”  Some properties use this definition in the simplest of ways.

Common Apartment Amenities

  • dishwasher
  • microwave
  • normal sized pool
  • garbage disposal
  • ceiling fan
  • storage
  • patio/ balcony

Then there are those communities that provide not so normal awesome amenities that can really draw in the interests of potential residents.

Awesome/ No so normal amenities

  • maid service
  • coffee bar
  • movie theater room
  • sauna
  • racquetball court
  • garden tub
  • self- cleaning ovens
  • putting green
  • car washing station (with vacuums
  • dog park

Another awesome thing is… that you can find apartments with these type of amenities on moveforfree.com.

The Most Important Amenity to Have in Your Apartment

Written by Moveforfree on December 21, 2009 – 1:31 pm -

There are many things people claim they absolutely can not live without.  Whether it be their iPhone or car or their nautical themed pashmina Afghan; some things are more important to some than they are to others.  But what about when it comes to your home?  What are some things that are “must haves” in your home.  When it comes to apartment living; finding these must haves are sometimes challenging.  For me I know it’s especially important to be able to rent a washer and dryer to use in my apartment.  But there are more properties that have just hook- ups available instead of the washer and dryer to rent.

I asked our MoveforFREE.com Facebook fans what as the most important amenity to have in their apartment or at the property they live in.

50% said a Fitness Center

25% said a Pool

25% said Washer and Dryer Hook- Ups

0%  Access Gates

0% Curbside Trash Pick- Up

0% Hot Tub/ Jacuzzi

Sometimes finding the right combination of all the essential amenities for the right price can be somewhat challenging.  Some properties may have a pool but not a fitness center.  Or some may have a fitness center but no access gates.

Wouldn’t it be nice if there was a service that took all the hard work out of finding the perfect place?  Well… there is!
