How much is rent for an apartment with hardwood floors in Starkville?
How many apartments with hardwood floors are available for rent in Starkville?
Well, I left my motel room, down at the Starkville Motel. The town had to sleep, and I was feelin' fairly well. I strolled along the sidewalk 'neath the sweet magnolia trees. I was whistlin', pickin' flowers, swayin' in the southern breeze. -- from "Starkville City Jail" by Johnny Cash
Wherefore art thou Starkville, Mississippi? Oh, yes, you are only a few hoots away from the western state line of Alabama and some hollers from Interstate 55, with Highway 82 connecting both. Starkville advertises itself as "Mississippi's College Town" for a very good reason: it's the home of Mississippi State University (MSU.) But wait! There's more than meets the eye. The city is a great mix of historic Downtown, Main Street businesses, restaurants, and arts and culture, all delivered with Southern flair. See more
Scoring an apartment with hardwood floors can be a big win for Starkville 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.
