Pinhook Flats Suggests You Find Your New Apartment Sooner than Later

To be sure, renters won’t be happy to hear that their monthly rent is projected to jump to a national average of $1,436 in 2016, up from $1,242 in 2011, according to PPR. Higher rents and declines in home ownership are helping to fuel investors’ interest in the apartment market, even from developers that usually focus on malls and offices. Construction starts in multifamily in November jumped 25.3% from the prior month, according to the Commerce Department, although construction of new multifamily units remains low on a historical basis.

Spring has Sprung at this Omaha Apartment

villavinee — Wed, 21 Mar 2012 11:15:07 +0000

With winter firmly behind us, it is officially apartment hunting season. When on the hunt, keep a few things in mind. Ask yourself what is important. What are the things I can’t live without, and what could I compromise. Do I need to have a washer/dryer in my apartment, or is it truly worth the extra $100-125 for a comparable apartment without a washer and dryer? Only you can decide that. Another question is whether the complex requires renter’s insurance. Very few people actually ask if it is required. This should be a top question on your list. Living in a place that does not require renter’s insurance is really a gamble. At Robert Hancock & Co., our properties’ require that you have renter’s insurance, and for good reason. It holds our residents to the highest standards, and you know that everyone is covered. Isn’t that extra peace of mind just what you were looking for??

Check out all of our properties here, including Villa Vinee, at 78th and Howard. You won’t be disappointed.

Pinhook Flats’ Tips for the NCAA Basketball Tournament

pinhookflats — Wed, 14 Mar 2012 12:31:32 +0000

Don’t pick more than two No. 1 seeds to make the Final Four

Three No. 1 seeds advancing to the Final Four is rare. That’s happened four times in the 27-year history of the modern NCAA tournament. And forget about having all four No. 1s go that far; 2008 was the first and last time that feat was accomplished. The numbers say your best bet is to put two No. 1 seeds in the Final Four and fill out the other half with a No. 3 seed and Butler. And, yes, we’re aware Butler isn’t in the tournament this year. That only slightly hinders their chances of advancing to a third-straight Final Four.

Don’t pick crazy upsets, particularly late in the tournament

No NCAA pool was ever won on the first weekend, but plenty have been lost, mainly by people who thought it was a good idea to pick against a tourney favorite in the round of 32. Smaller pools tend to be won by those who play it relatively safe. Granted, defying the odds and successfully picking Creighton over North Carolina will be a bracket story you can tell your grandkids, who will then beat you in an NCAA tournament pool because you’re the kind of person who picks Creighton over North Carolina.

Ignore seeding in the No. 8 vs. No. 9 game

The lower seed is 57-51 overall in those matchups.

Beware of trendy picks

You know what happens when you go all-in on trends? You try to catch up and then — boom — suddenly you’re stuck with a closet full of trucker hats. Since everyone else is bound to hear the same “hot tips” that you do, try and go the other way. Don’t let Missouri or Long Beach State be your skinny jeans.

Defy conventional wisdom

This goes hand-in-hand with “beware of trendy picks.” Remember last year when everyone thought UConn wouldn’t have the legs for the tournament because of the team’s five wins in five nights at the Big East tournament? Or the year before when Duke was getting overlooked because of the team’s recent lack of March success? Treat your bracket like the stock market: Find undervalued teams and ride them to greatness. For this tournament, that means jumping on the stalled jalopy that is the Ohio State bandwagon.

Don’t “show me” the Irish

In Notre Dame’s past 10 tournament appearances, the Fighting Irish have advanced to the second weekend just once. That’s good news for fans of Xavier and Duke.
