Roanoke is THE Place to Live

Joseph Coupal - Wednesday, February 15, 2012

As a place to live or work, the Roanoke area is one of the best.  Located in the central part of the East Coast, is perfectly positioned for economics with a mild climate year round. Roanoke is an excellent place to find a job, and it is known for a low cost of living.

If you are relocating to the area, consider renting an apartment in Roanoke, VA. With so much to offer, you’ll find  no better place to live than WestWind Apartments.

College Grads are Renting

Joseph Coupal - Thursday, January 12, 2012

Once upon a time, college students dreamed of graduating and then buying a home and having a mortgage. Not so anymore.

With an uncertain economy, and more people moving to take jobs where they can find them, renting is what this generation is doing. More and more college graduates are renting an apartment in a beautiful apartment communities, complete with swimming pool, fitness center, volleyball courts and other apartment amenities.

For the first time in our history owning a home has lost its luster for the young. Since 2008, the percentage of young people who think that owning a home is “better than renting” has fallen.

Renting an apartment in Roanoke, VA has acquired a sort of cool respectability. Empty nesters figured it out a couple of decades ago, when they began getting rid of their high-maintenance houses.
 
Some of the forces driving the change are cultural. People are getting married later and they travel light longer.

Many are renting apartments because mortgages are hard to come by. There’s no stigma to renting anymore, and there’s just so much to keep you interested and busy in an apartment community.

For more information on one  or two bedroom apartments in Roanoke, contact West Wind Apartments.

Choose to Rent, It Makes Sense

Joseph Coupal - Tuesday, December 06, 2011

The housing market is stagnating right now in Roanoke and in other parts of the country and real estate brokers would have potential buyers believe that there is no better time than the present to buy a home. It is true, prices are down and mortgage rates are at all-time lows.

Unfortunately for the real estate brokers, many clients are not persuaded by that logic. Instead, in increasing numbers, they are choosing to rent instead of buy — unconvinced that the housing market has yet hit bottom. Would be buyers also understand that unless you plan to stay in your home for more than 10 years, buying a home may not be the right investment for everyone.

With apartments in Roanoke, VA, offering apartment amenities that can’t be found in homes, renting is a great option for many. There is also a broad mix of tenants at West Wind Apartment: young single residents and families and empty-nesters that no longer have homeownership on their wish list.

For information on beautiful one-, two-, and three bedroom apartments in Roanoke contact  West Wind Apartments.
