Now, all I can think of is how much the process has changed in the last 20 or so years and if it was (convention question incoming) similar to what Jared and Jensen did to get their first LA apartments.
Yeah, I remember the first time I rented an apartment. I had to have my parents come and co-sign as I was a young college aged adult and the place just wanted to make sure I was legit lol. But it's really common in my college town for places to do that.
Congratulations on your new apartment, I am so happy that you all found the perfect one! I remember the struggle of looking for my first apartment, I just moved into my first apartment in April and I am loving it so much!
I relate to this feeling of "This is it, this is home" when seeing an apartment. Sometimes it feels like fate, finding a home. Congratulations on your new home 😊
