Fenton, MI

22 Apartments for Rent with Garages

Originally called Dibbleville (chuckle about that for a second), and later, Fentonville, this town of just under 12,000 modern residents was eventually named Fenton in 1863. Sprawled across Genesee, Oakland and Livingston Counties in Michigan, Fenton has seen a lot of reconstruction since the 1970s, when its downtown was destroyed to make way for a more modern commercial center. In 2007, a tornado wiped out further construction that is still being redesigned and replaced. Several classic buildings, like the A.J. Philips Building, the U.S. Post Office and the Fenton Fire Hall, still remain. See more

Fenton apartments with garages are sometimes more expensive than other options. However, they may make more financial sense in the long run.

Weather, break-ins, and daily struggles to find a space can take a toll financially and physically. Remember that even cities in mild climates experience issues like salt air, tornadoes, hail, falling branches from storms, and other issues.

It’s also possible to score an auto insurance reduction if you park in a garage. Ask your insurance provider about any deals or discounts that could trim money off the cost of your monthly bill.

Before signing a lease, ask the landlord or property manager about any restrictions on garage use. It’s important to know if there are enough spaces for tenants and visitors and what happens if the garage is full. If you’re moving into an apartment inside a home, ask about any conditions on its use and if storage is allowed.
