27 Apartments for Rent with Hardwood Floors

Prien, LA has just over 7,000 inhabitants and has recently begun expanding, which is great for anyone who is looking to move on in. Prien is close enough to large cities to allow you to have the necessities of life that you would expect from a large city, but far away enough that you may truly feel secluded. Since Prien is expanding, much of the housing is recently built. This gives you a wide variety to choose from, as you can have vintage or modern housing, depending on what you're looking for. This also means that it'll be a little bit easier for you to find housing. See more

Scoring an apartment with hardwood floors can be a big win for Prien renters. They`re typically a beautiful addition to your space. They’re also easier to clean and sweep, particularly if you have pets.

However, there are some downsides. Hardwood floors carry sounds. They can also make your apartment noisy for your roommates and downstairs neighbors.

Ask the landlord or property manager about the hardwood floors before signing a lease. Are they actually hardwood or a popular composite alternative? The latter is probably easier to clean and care for than the real thing.

It’s also important to ask about who’s responsible for any damage to the floors and what that entails. Your security deposit could take a hit from scratches, dents, and other damage.

Consider the type of climate you live in. Hardwood floors typically don’t fare well in damp climates full of moisture. Stains and buckling are common in hardwood floors after rain flooding or excessive moisture.

However, hardwood floors can be ideal for dry climates or sunny areas for renters who love the way they look.
