Moving to a new city or a big city like Miami may seem daunting, but this Guide will make your transition into Miami Law a smooth one. The Office of Student Recruitment has published this Guide to help orient incoming students to their new city. The information provided in this publication has been gathered from numer- ous sources, including surveys completed by current law students. This information is compiled for your convenience but is by no means exhaustive. We are not affiliated with, nor do we endorse any property, organization or real estate agent/office listed in the Guide. Features listed are provided by the property agents. We strongly suggest you call in advance to schedule an appointment or gather more information, before visiting the properties. Please note that most rental prices and facilities have been updated for 2017, but the properties reserve the right to adjust rates at any time. Once you have selected an area to live in, it is wise to examine several possibilities to compare prices and quality. The listings are organized by neighborhood, with the closest neighborhoods listed first. Don’t hesitate to contact us if you need assitance. GOOD LUCK IN YOUR SEARCH! HELPFUL RESOURCES In addition to this guide, there are other resources that may be helpful in your search. Please look over our TIPS for Avoiding Scams section, when contacting private or online postings. MIAMI LAW RESOURCES Housing Day - Saturday, April 1st, 2017 Each year, Miami Law hosts this event so you can meet with realtors, and other admitted students, and also take a short tour of Coral Gables, Coconut Grove, and South Miami. This year, there are two bus tours scheduled; one at 9:00 am and the other at 11:00 am. Note: The tour does not include apartment/condo interiors. Housing Online Chats Housing chats are held periodically to answer relocation questions. All of our chats may be viewed on our YoutTube Page @MiamiLawSchool. Admitted Student Facebook Page Admitted students are advised to join their class Facebook Group. Here you can view posts by other admitted students, administrators, and staff regarding housing and often find roommates and leases. Here is the link to join: https://www.facebook.com/groups/MiamiLawClassof2020/ ONLINE RESOURCES UM Off-Campus Housing Database (Note: Use is not https://public.cgcent.miami.edu/off-campus-housing/ restricted to University students) frmSearch.aspx Apartments: www.apartments.com Apartment Ratings: www.apartmentratings.com Apartment Search: www.apartmentsearch.com Best of the Web www.apartmentsearch.com Coral Gables Rentals http://www.coralgablesrentals.com/index.html For Rent.com http://www.forrent.com/ Miami Apartment Finders www.miamiapartmentfinders.com/ Miami Condo Lifestyle (Rent): http://www.miamicondolifestyle.com/english/miami- condos-rent.php Pet Friendly Condos: http://www.miamicondolifestyle.com/pet-friendly.php Realtor.com (under Home Type, select Rentals): http://www.realtor.com/ Zillow http://www.zillow.com Trulia http://www.trulia.com/for_rent/Miami,FL/ Abodo - Coral Gables https://www.abodo.com/coral-gables-fl/search OTHER RESOURCES “For Rent” Signs—Many places in the Gables ONLY post their vacancies on a sign in the wndows or outside their prop- erty, so consider driving around a neighborhood you like and look for a sign. REAL ESTATE AGENTS Real Estate professionals in Miami do not charge a “finders fee” when working with tenants, and many condominiums are listed through realtors. Since a real estate agent helps procure a lease agreement, the commission will come from the owner’s side of the transaction. Please Note: We do not endorse any particular agency and this list is provided for your convenience. Please look at the following list of realtors who have been helpful to our students in the past.

As such, you may be renting your apartment from a private owner as opposed to a property manager. Please make sure to read over our Tips for Avoiding Scams section for more information. • KNOW WHO TO CONTACT IF THERE ARE ANY PROBLEMS When signing a lease, make sure you know who the contact person is in case a problem arises (bro- ken appliances, parking, utilities, common area issues, etc.). Your point of contact may be the owner, realtor or a management office. • START YOUR SEARCH EARLY Prices fluctuate with market and demand changes, and tend to go up right before the start of the school year. You are advised to start looking early with negotiations typically beginning before your lease is to begin. If possible, it is wise to visit the property and surrounding areas in person, 30-45 days before signing a lease. • BE AWARE OF THE UP FRONT COSTS It is common for application fees, pet deposits and 3 months rent (first month, last month, and a one-month security deposit) be due at the time of the lease signing. • ASK QUESTIONS AND NEGOTIATE Some condo units will include cable, internet, and water, but make sure to discuss this during your negotiations. Ask about the pet policy. There are many condo associations that allow owners to have pets, but not renters. Big complexes and communities advertise their move-in specials, but the own- ers of private units and buildings do not. There may be ocassions where you can negotiate terms and upfront costs. TIPS FOR AVOIDING SCAMS • DO YOUR DUE DILIGENCE If you do not use a realtor, reduce your risk of becoming a scam or foreclosure victim by doing a little reading, investigating and research. If you cannot secure a place in Miami in person, before sending any money you may want to ask for verifiable employment information or their photo ID. Also, these days, many people have a social media account, so look them up. • DEAL WITH QUALIFIED REAL ESTATE PROFESSIONALS Those on our list are recommended by students or have participated in one of our housing events. (Please see page 4 “Real Estate Agents”) • TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THE FOLLOWING RESOURCES: For Verifying Property Ownership: Miami-Dade County Property Appraiser’s Website http://gisims2.miamidade.gov/myhome/propmap.asp For Foreclosure Status: Miami-Dade County Clerks Office Website http://www.miami-dadeclerk.com/property_home.asp https://www2.miami-dadeclerk.com/public-records/ For Verifying Realtor License: Department of Business and Professional Regulation www.myfloridalicense.com TIPS FOR MANAGING YOUR BUDGET If you are dependant on STUDENT LOANS for law school… • KNOW HOW MUCH YOU ARE GETTING AND HOW MUCH YOU ARE PAYING Loan amounts are based on the numbers at the following Cost of Attendance link: http://grad-prof.miami.edu/cost/law-costs/index.html Once tuition has been paid, the remaining balance will have to cover all other expenses for the semester: books, rent, food, car, insurance, gas, utilities, phone, etc.

From the communities along the corridor to the members of the Project Advisory Team, everyone played a crucial role in forming the results and conclusions contained in this study. 2 STATE ROAD (SR) 5/US 1/DIXIE HIGHWAY FROM SR 94/SW 88 STREET/KENDALL DRIVE TO SR 9/I-95 This report compiles the results of the State Road (SR) 5/US 1/ Dixie Highway from SR 94/SW 88 Street/Kendall Drive to SR 9/I-95 Corridor Study and includes: › Findings from the study › Recommendations for walking, bicycling, driving, and transit access needs along US 1 between Kendall Drive and I-95 › Next steps for implementing the recommendations This effort is the product of collaboration between the Florida Department of Transportation District Six and its regional and local partners. FDOT and its partners engaged the community at two critical stages of the study – during the identification of issues and during the development of recommendations. The community input helped inform the recommended strategies but the collaboration cannot stop here. Going from planning to implementation will take additional coordination and, in some instances, additional analysis. FDOT is able and ready to lead the effort but will continue seeking the support of community leaders, transportation and planning organizations, and the general public!

Known as The City Beautiful, Coral Gables stands out as a planned community that blends color, details, and the Mediterranean Revival architectural style. International: From its inception, Coral Gables was designed to be an international City, and is now home to more than 20 consulates and foreign government offices and more than 140 multinational corporations. As early as 1925, City Founder George Merrick predicted Coral Gables would serve as "a gateway to Latin America." To further establish international ties, the City has forged relationships with six Sister Cities: Aix-en Provence, France; Cartagena, Colombia; Granada, Spain; La Antigua, Guatemala; Province of Pisa, Italy; and Quito, Ecuador (emeritus). 3 Our Neighborhood University of Miami: The University of Miami is located in Coral Gables Shopping: Coral Gables attracts national and regional retailers along with an abundance of boutiques and retail shops. Miracle Mile is the center of a true downtown district. Located across the street from the Kaplan Medical Center in Coral Gables is “The Village of Merrick Park”, a 780,000 square foot retail, residential and office project anchored by Neiman Marcus and Nordstrom, and has more than 100 other select retailers including Tiffany & Co., Burberry, Coach and Gucci.
