Whether the end goal is to share a place with roommates or find the perfect solo studio, NIU’s Housing Fair is at student’s service.
Sponsored by the Northern Star this year’s housing fair will take place from 11 a.m to 2 p.m Thursday at the Holmes Student Center Gallery.
There will be a host of real estate agents and property management companies which offer off-campus listings ideal for students who attend NIU.
Students who attend will be able to see pictures of listings and discuss the reality of renting an apartment around campus.
The 10 DeKalb-based participants will include: 815 Property Management and Sales, Augusta Apartments, Axiom Properties, Dwell DeKalb, Hunter Star Properties, Mason Properties, Pittsley Realty, S&E Properties and Management, The Terraces and Varsity Square Apartments.
The Housing Fair offers students looking to rent next semester an interactive experience and supportive hand at the overbearing task of apartment hunting. Students will receive an eyes view comparison of a variety of property choices.
Besides apartment hunting, the 2024 Housing Fair will receive a visit from NIU’s very own Victor E. Huskie and have $100 prizes that can be won through a raffle.
Students can expect surprises, entertainment, housing resources as well as personalized attention and advice from real estate agents and property companies within DeKalb.
