"Two old boots, dusty, worn, and stained / By the oilfields and the ranches and the blood that fell like rain / Heroes hearts that fought to change our name / From Tejas to Texas where the Lone Star proudly waves." -- From "Red and the Rio Grande," by Doug Supernaws
University Park is one of Dallas' suburbs - arguably one of the city's best. Awarded "Best Suburb" 3 times by D Magazine, University Park is an upscale residential town with great opportunities for shopping, dining and entertainment. University Park was founded as a residential area for students and faculty of local university Southern Methodist University. However, today, University Park is a sought-after place to live with convenient access to big city Dallas, but also quiet, quaint, country living within its borders. See more
Scoring an apartment with hardwood floors can be a big win for University Park 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.
