It is a 1 bedroom with a study, 900 sqft apartment with a fenced backyard and is $500 a month. They have a lawn service and utilities would probably be less than $200 a month. It is close (<15 minutes) to both UH and Rice.
That's good. We're looking for a 2+ bedroom, so as moving time draws near I may hit you up to ask about any rentals in your neighborhood. That sounds great so if there's anything similar for rent next summer...we'd love to take a look! :)

We live in Eastwood which is just East of DT. The new hip name is EaDo (East Downtown) :roll: I can see the skyine of downtown from my front porch. It's mostly homes and duplexes built in the 30s and 40s with more and more 3 story townhomes being built. Think Heights 10 years ago.

Oh, okay. Knew it had to be outside the CBD proper, thanks.
