It’s easy to overlook the importance of the seasons when you’re searching for a new apartment.  Could a couple of months really make that much of a difference?  While it’s always a great time to start renting in Arcadia Run, here are a few of the pros and cons that come with finding an apartment throughout the different seasons:

Fall

Our current season might very well be the best season to move into a new apartment – and we’re not just saying that! Many landlords experience a lull in activity during the fall, which means that you (the renter) will have a larger selection when looking for a new apartment.  Arcadia Run offers many different types of floor plans, so no matter what you’re looking for, you’ll be able to find it here!

Winter

Believe it or not, winter has its advantages for renters.  While it may be a little chilly trying to move your belongings to a new room, moving in the winter means there will be less competition. Because of the weather, people are not going to be moving as much, nor will they be looking for new apartments to rent.   You have a higher chance of finding the perfect room you love, without being rushed.

Spring

So you’ve survived the colder months! The spring can be a very exciting time to look for a new place to live.  Temperatures are warming up and many tenants are leaving their apartments to move back home.  This is only the beginning of the apartment housing frenzy, renters should move quickly to find the perfect place.

Summer

The months between May and September mark some of the busiest in the apartment industry.  Students are leaving their school digs and the accommodating weather makes moving a breeze. Depending on your region, you could have a wider selection of apartments to chose from as people move out. At the same time, there might be a greater demand for apartments because of the recent grads moving into the cities.  With so many local schools in the Manassas area, we plan to have another busy summer in 2014!

Any time of the year is the best time to move into an Arcadia Run apartment!  Our apartments are some of the best in the market for their quality, size, and amenities.  In the next year, our community will continue to grow with a new swimming pool, clubhouse, and fitness center.  it won’t take long for these luxury apartments to fill up!
