Here is a little info about my self:
year 2000 undergrad from University of Texas at Austin
I currently live in Houston, Texas.
I am Asian American.
From talking to other users on the forum, I would like to find an apartment within 10 minutes from school, and around $700-900 per month.

anyone interested can email me mnfan@sbcglobal.net or you can PM me

matt

you're a rich dude. For $700-900, you can live 1 minute from school, and by yourself. You don't need a roommate.

you can rent 2 apartments for that money and have a party pad.

with money like yours, lizard trail all the way

$700 barely gets you anything in St. Maarten... come to think of it... $1000 barely gets you anything.

sucks for you.

$700-900 can get you a very nice place on lizard trail...the problem is the vacancy at these places. some of these places have a long waitlist.

i recommend carlton apartments or hamylton apartments. you'll have relatively clean floors and limited bug infestations as compared to some of the other apartments on the island. if you can get in, you wont regret it. you'll be comfortable for the length of your stay in dominica.

I have a question, I am starting in Jan, 2005. Is it possible for one student to sign a lease lets say for 700$ a month and without the corrupt landlords knowledge, have another student living there helping with the rent

yes. it most likely is possible to have another person just crash at your place. unless the landlord lives in the same building, they won't be checkin on you daily.

carlton apartments or hamylton apartments----are these two of the apratments that's right behine the school and look like US apartments? When I was interviewing in Miami, some students told me about them, but I just cannot remember the names.

yes, these are the ones they were probably talking about. they arent exactly like US apartments but they were pretty darn close. i used to live in hamylton and they had clean bathtubs (most places dont have tubs, they only have dirty showers), clean floors and quality US furniture (not cheap dominican knockoffs).
