Default Looking for a place to rent near the University

My girlfriend and I are looking for a place to rent near the university. We've got a budget of ~900-1100 for rent/utilities/cable/internet. We'd like to live in walking distance or easy transit(<30 min w/no transfers, or better yet by the LRT). We've got a cat (well behaved, have references), and we'd like to sign an 8 month lease starting Sept 1st (we may stay another year, but aren't sure at this time).

Let me know if you or anyone you know has anything like this.

I don't have a rental available, but it might help if you state which university you would like to be close to.

Mount Royal never has and never will count as a University.

LOL, just because it's called MRU now doesn't mean people are going to change from calling it "Mount Royal" to "the University"...by stating "the University" it's pretty clear what is implied...the university.

Plus he asked for something near the LRT. Which also suggests U of C, since MRU isn't near the train. Neither is lethbridge...

+1 to the "university" is the U of C comments.

Shoot, even Calgary Transit knows what "the University" is.

I'll talk to my friend and see if he's got a room available. You could actually walk to U of C from his place. I'll PM you when he gets back to me.

Thanks. Just to be clear though, we're looking for a self contained suite, more than just a room.

Yeah, I have to check if his basement suite is still rented or not (2 bedrooms). I should be able to let you know by tomorrow.

I'm certain I've see 'for rent' signs along 20th Ave NW (east of Crowchild) in the last week, FWIW. But school's starting soon; I don't know what the rental situation is like here anymore, but you're cutting it pretty close there.

Ya I know. I always do. I try to be as picky as possible but still realistic at the same time. It usually ends up working out ok, and if I get down to it I can always go to somewhere like boardwalk. I've got a buddy looking at some places for me tonight, hopefully I can reserve something this weekend :P
