hmm, 700 a month for a studio?
you're not going to have a car right? or are you?
honestly, if you are going to work in downtown and want to try and live in the downtown area and take the metro rail or cabs, then it's going to be more expensive for a studio in that area. studios in a decent building in brickell or downtown are at least 900. you're better off trying to find a roommate situation where the rent is like 1400 a month for a 2 bedroom and 700 would be your half. the place would be sweeter.
i'll start browsing for you though. for 700 a month for a studio or 1 bedroom, ur gonna have to go west..and west miami isn't that great and the traffic sucks and no one speaks english. or u could do north miami...but that's kind of expensive too. |

ill be working right around here:
8323 NW 12th Street Suite 200, Miami, FL 33126
so the closer the better. Ill be bringing my motorcycle down but Id rather either walk or take metro. Get the feeling thats not going to be an option, however.
As it is a bike I am worried about theft so ...
i might be willing to pay up to 900 a month but needs to be pretty damn sweet if im gonna do that.
and i cant do the room mate thing. This job is too important to have to worry about other factors hehe.
thanks for the help, its appreciated :D |

to be honest dude, you won't find anything sweet close to Southbeach or Downtown for 900 a month. You'll be better off finding a roomate. You could probbly pay 900 a month for a place in like Miami lakes or Kendall, but it's pretty far from everything.
My GF was recently looking for a place, she got one in Biscayne for 1800, and she dosen't pay utilities, also the place is 1700sqft.
I'll ask her if she saw anything cheaper and get back to u. |

dude roomates are cool. I found mine on craigslist when I moved to new york and i'm so glad i did. you're still young, you shouldn't have to worry about not getting enough rest or peace because of roomates - if that's your concern. And you have way more fun this way.
But hey if your mission is to focus solely on work and put aside social activities, then live alone sure.
oh btw, roomates are cheaper too :) |

its a pretty complicated system and Im going to need to put in unpaid hours to get a hold of the situation. Which is fine because if I nail this contract its gonna be well worth it. |
