The other thing I noticed was that square
footage didn’t really tell me anything about the
place. You can get a rough idea of the size, but it
really comes down to how oddly the apartment is
divided.
Any site that wouldn’t show me a floor plan
on the website was immediately taken out of
the running (the keywords “floor plan” or
“layout” and “2 bedroom” were often
combined).

ADDRESS PRICING / COST
In the end my searches looked something like
“North Phoenix 2 bedroom $8 backyard patio
kitchen clean pets” (Google fills in the $8- - with
whatever dollar amount, since it’s just looking for
the beginning. Pets would often help me know if
they had a pet policy on site.)

@ArnieK
Mainly, I was more interested in the lifestyle
surrounding the place I wanted to find, so any
features like that were the things that sold me on
my current place. Granted, the actual building
I’m in now is great too but it was more about
what was around the building I live in and how
easy it is to get to...
But to sum it up, I mainly looked for the things
surrounding the place I wanted to be in –
what could I walk to in 5 minutes, what
restaurants were nearby, how could I connect
with fellow residents, what type of people lived
there, etc!

If I found a multi-unit property I liked, the first thing I
would do is look for reviews in the search.
Apartment reviews are tough because you will often
find people who have a vendetta against the
apartment complex over silly reasons, but with
common sense you could come to the proper
conclusions (having the complex owner/manager
reply to the complaints was helpful).
Some things I would search for would be
“(Apartment name) bug problems review”
“(apartment name) bad a/c”, “(Apartment name)
great management”, “(Apartment name) terrible
management”.

FACEBOOK – THE MOTOR LODGE
• Beat the crowds with a sneak peek of the Courthouse Christmas lights tonight
from 5:30-6:30pm (the official Lighting Ceremony is Saturday).
• Time to get shopping so, for our Facebook buddies we will add 15% to any gift
certificate that you purchase for holiday giving. Think of it, you provide a fun
place to stay for your favorite people while appearing to be 15% more
generous than you really are...It's a win, win!
• We thought you should know that waterboarding at The Motor Lodge has
stopped! In case you never had the chance to experience the torture that was
our showers, imagine standing in a phone booth while a 55 gallon drum of water
was dumped on you from 8' up (a classic case of form over function...sorry).
New and improved, ...adjustable and reachable showerheads make cleansing
your beautiful body an absolute pleasure. Enjoy!
• Time to name the cat that adopted us 3 months ago! Whoever comes up
with the winning name wins a free night in our swankiest room, #6. The cat is a
neutered male, very friendly, green eyes and has a hole in his left ear. Voting
ends Sunday at 5pm. (The post included a video of the cat.)

@ArnieK
HOW OFTEN SHOULD YOU POST?
• The most common complaint from Facebook users
is Newsfeed spam
• Posting just a few times per week produces 71%
higher user engagement
• Focus on quality, not quantity on Facebook.
• Only 50% of your posts should be about your
content. Organizations that share other content
have a higher engagement rate.
