"I think FlagstafThas major problems with housing. There is not enough housing for all o f the people. I heard that there is about a 4 percent vacancy rate in Flagstaff. The apartments that are available are outrageously over-priced. There is just no way you can get a place on your own unless you have got a lot of money," said Derek West, junior marketing major. Kerry McCracken o f Flagstaff s McCracken Reality confirmed the 4 to 5 percent vacancy rate in Flagstaff. West has been living out of the back of his pick-up truck since the beginning o f the semester. He and many other students have been waiting to move into the Alpine Ridge apartments behind Mountain View Hall since Aug. 15, but due to repairs, renovations, city regulations and insurance inspections they will have to wait until Sept. 25 to move in, according to the apartment's Co-Manager Lee Echols. .Although Echols said that the original opening dale was Aug. 15, West and Joe Berardi, ajunior premed major, said they were told the original opening dale was Aug. 1. “Alpine Ridge said we would be able to move in August 1 and since then they have continually moved it up further and further. The last I heard the move-in date was bumped up to SepL 24," West said. Berardi is also awaiting the opening o f Alpine Ridge. Berardi has been living in Kachina Village with his brother for the past month. "It is such an inconvenience driving to school every day," Berardi said. “It is just one more distraction from school," he said. Berardi was also told the apartmen ts would be fin ished by Aug. 1. He said the owner then moved it up to Aug. 15, SepL 15andnow SepL 24. “1 don’t know what I’m going to do if they delay it past that," he said. Berardi plans to move in Sept. 25, but said the owner wants to charge him $22 a day until O ct 1 when his first month ’ s rent is due. “I think we should be compensated for at least a half month’s rent," he said. Accord i ng to Echols, SepL 23 ope n ing looks like when the apartment will open. I t looks like everything is going to work this time. HUD (Housing and Urban Development) is inspecting us on the 23rd, and assoon as HUD says, we’re set toopen, "Echols said. In a town where rental space is in such high demand, it is important for students to be aware o f their legal rental rights. “What we always do to ensure there’s no problem is to do a clear written lease, prior to anybody taking possession. We’ll state the date they’ re supposed to move in," McCracken said. “If you have everything in writing, you are well protec ted by the law,” she said. “If don’t have it in writing, it turns into one guy's word against another," McCracken said. Berardi said he considered legal action but doesn’t think he has a chance. ‘T h ere were no leases signed or money exchanged,” Berardi said. “1 wouldn’t think so in that situation,” said Keith A. Hammond, attorney with the Flagstaff Law Office. I f it is not being opened for reasons beyond the their [management’s] control, and no leases were signed yet, there’s really not much you can do," he said.
