    You are so inspiring. Once I found one your videos I just had to start from the beginning. Watching your videos makes me feel like I could get into UT and hang with no problems(also the same with living in Austin alone). I happen to live just about 3 and half hours away. Another reason I love watching you and your videos is the fact that you earn your way into the school and you take of care of yourself, instead of other girls that rely on many other things/people and feel like it's a joyful ride to them because they probably don't know what the ups and downs are.(hopefully that makes sense). basically, what I'm trying to say is that your "real".

    What is the best option for student apartments near Moody College? That would be great for a freshman and safe to get to and from school??

    Thx for the great advice. My daughter & her friend are attending in the fall and are looking for options for housing. Your knowledge of the apartment market would be useful. I think closer to campus would be bette4 being a freshman but if unit is close to bus route then that could be an option. She does have a car but she could also leave it at home if need be.

    • @victortorres2704
      @victortorres2704 4 роки тому +3

      Dobie is pretty decent but you will be paying a premium for a meal plan . It will basically be dorm-style living and for your first year it might be a good match. But if you look around the area at some of the other apartment complexes in West Campus, Northside, Riverside, etc... you might get more bang for your buck(room size)

    • @alexleigh8206

    • @alexleigh8206
      @alexleigh8206 4 роки тому

      Sophia Rosenthal Yeah it‘s cheaper than staying in a dorm. Of course it really depends on the floor plan you choose, but for the Cash floor plan that I’m doing with my friends it was about $3,000 cheaper than living in Jester which is the cheapest dorm. Hope that helped!!

    Great content and very nice video. As a graduate of Texas A&M I had to check this out and here is my best U.T. joke from an Aggie. Why to U.T. graduates carry their diploma in the car?.... it justifies the handicap sticker. Believe me, as an Aggie I know so many Aggie jokes, and of course, this joke would make perfect sense if you flipped it around and made it an Aggie joke. LOL. BTW, I watched and then subscribed. Hope this video helps with the real estate business. Keep up the good work! See you around the internet.
