Mod or Low income? The inventory depends on the income levels

Moved in yesterday!!!!

This place is beautiful and the staff is amazing. Very helpful, kind and accommodating. They gave me the most wonderful "welcome home" day.

The process is long and requires a large dose of patience, which combined with the suspense, makes for good ninja training. But every person I met from Related, has been fantastic.

Hang in there those who are waiting!

I'm moving in tomorrow...soooo excited!!! I still have my other apartment for like 3 weeks, so taking my time to move everything over to the new place! I decided to get mostly new furniture and sell all my other stuff. No more ikea allowed in my apartment!!

My timeline...
I was called towards the end of July to come for an interview. I went to the office and looked at a few models the first week of August. I was told I was approved, and at that point and they were just waiting for my log # to come up to be offered an apartment. (I'm mid-income, qualified for any of the mid-income studios and a few of the 1brs, log # was just over 14K and I had no CB prefs). I was sent units 2 choose from on 8/25 (was given a choice between 2 nice studios, one in each building, high floors, and both at the $1997 price range). I chose the one in Commons even though I reallly didn't want to pay that price. At the time I was told that range was all that was left. I followed up a week later to see if there were any of the lower priced studios available by chance. Got really lucky and was able to get a nice $1560 studio on the 2nd floor instead. Not a great view, but I don't even care! I was a little bummed about the view and being on a low floor at first, but after thinking about it, I'm really happy that I don't have to wait for the elevator and can just take the stairs. I would imagine the elevators will get pretty crowded at peak times.

Anyone have good pictures of the studios? I've seen a few but I would like to see more.

I should be able to interview next week so I'll see my options soon enough, but it's hard to be patient!
