Since Shelby moved to Rexburg, her and I have been trying to find a place to rent together. Our hopes of ever finding a place get crushed after every place we go to look at. Kinda depressing...but we know we will get one eventually. Some stories from our apartment shopping experiences, I just pray they don't get any worse!
1.) This one lady wanted us to live with her and she talked to us for half an hour than told us at the very end that it most likely wouldn't work out because a girl is planning on living with her. (Couldn't she tell us that at the very beginning...or when we called!) The worse part about it was she gave us a curfew of 10 PM. I'm 19, I stayed out later than that when I was in 8th grade! But she did bump it up to mid-night on Friday nights.
2.) Cute cottage - we drive 15 minutes out of Rexburg to find out it is more of a shed! The people were super nice though.
3.) We checked out a trailer in a trailer park. The renter pretty much told us we could apply but we wouldn't get it!
4.) My neighbor is a landlord so we went to talk to him. He manages married apartments, but we figured he would know other landlords. He wasn't home but his wife was. She looks at us and said, "are you guys married?" Shelby said, "No, we are sisters." my neighbor started laughing and said, "I meant are you married to a guy and are you married to a guy?" It was pretty funny!
The list can go on, but seriously it is so hard finding a place to live here. Some apartments have over 300 applications that have been turned in! I'm almost ready to give up!!!
