How to find the best apartments for seniors in Grand Forks, N.D.

By: UM

It’s never easy to find the right apartment. But if you are a senior, you might be looking for specific qualities in your next place to live, making the decision even more difficult. Below are tips to help you find the best apartments for seniors in Grand Forks.

1. Contact a property manager to help you.
The property manager for the Marcil Management apartments in Grand Forks is Christa. Christa will help you find the right senior apartment for you. She will also answer your questions, take you on a tour through any of our Grand Forks apartments and help you make the best decisions. She can be reached at our Grand Forks office located at 715 N. 42nd St. You may also call her at 701.772.9597 or email her at christa@marcilgroup.com.

2. Look at more than one building.
Just because you like the first apartment you look at, it’s better to look at two or three buildings. When you look at several buildings, you can compare others of the same price range and find the one that is best for you or the senior you know who is looking for an apartment. If more than one apartment is open in one unit, don’t be afraid to look at more than one at each location. Consider which is best for you, such as what floor you’d like to be living on, what amenities are most important to you and what stores you’d like to be near. For example, our Southview Apartments are located at 2249 30th Ave. S., less than a mile from the Columbia and Grand Cities malls, a Carmike Cinemas and many restaurants.

3. Determine a price range before you begin looking at apartments.
Once you start looking at classified ads, searching online or talking with a property manager, it is easy to want to rent an apartment out of your price range. Remember that extra expenses add up over a year. An apartment just a hundred dollars more than you budgeted could end up costing you quite a bit more. For example, it might have a higher deposit. Consider other expenses like pet deposits, application fees and the cost of utilities. Our Southview Apartments have no application fees and no deposits. Rent starts at $585 per month. Rent for our Grandview I and II Apartments, located a mile south of the University of North Dakota, begins at $525 per month.

4. Plan for your future health.
Keep in mind, if your health changes, you might be better off living in a first floor apartment or an assisted living community at some point. Our apartments offer one-year leases so if your living needs change in a year, you can make proper arrangements.

5. Consider safety precautions.
Our Southview Apartments have a controlled access to the building. Background checks are done on all residents at our Grandview Apartments.

6. Get a friend or relative’s opinion.
Sometimes making the right decision about an apartment is overwhelming. It’s a good idea to bring a friend or relative you trust. He or she might think of some questions you hadn’t considered. Plus that person could take notes while you are more focused on talking with the property manager.
