My husband and I are here in Asheville (via Raleigh) until Sun. the 22nd. We are vacationing and taking the opportunity to look for a (dog friendly) rental home in downtown Asheville. Does anyone have a nice home to rent or know of a realtor who specializes in the downtown area? Here is a little about us and what we are looking for.....any help or insight would be greatly appreciated!!



My husband and I are in our early 40's, he is an artist and I am a writer. We are friendly people and so are our 2 doggies. We need either a house 3bed, 2+ bath, fenced yard, modern, clean, dog friendly and walking distance to restaurants, coffee etc. Or we would be thrilled with a loft or space above the shops, that is large, modern and a nice vibe to create and be in the center of everything. Looking to spend about $1400 to $1700 range if possible.



We are open to other areas such as West Asheville and River Arts District provided it is walking distance to activities. So far not too many modern type places on Craigslist that fit our style.



Any info. about property or just general stuff about these specific areas is welcome. Thank you so much!!! Hi everyone,My husband and I are here in Asheville (via Raleigh) until Sun. the 22nd.

For the location and space that you want you are looking at 2500+ per month 02-17-2015, 07:54 PM Love2Create 3 posts, read 5,667 times Reputation: 10 Hi, thanks for your reply. We're willing to compromise on space if it is a nice place but 2500 seems a bit high for the area. 02-17-2015, 08:03 PM motordavid Location: Mtns of Waynesville,NC & Nokomis, FL 4,446 posts, read 8,723,264 times Reputation: 5702



"...high for the area": A'ville and much of western NC has/is become a 'destination spot', (whether that is good or bad is not my point), yet jobs are slim and low paying.

It is all about the current supply and demand, housing-wise. It is approaching bubble-like.



Do some digging on the houses to rent sites, find a good RE person that deals in rentals, etc.



Good luck on your hunt.

The bolded in your post is going to be way over your budget. The areas you are talking about world be right in downtown, Montford, Charlotte St corridor, Norwood Heights. These are primo areas to live and are quite expensive to buy and rent in. 02-18-2015, 04:54 AM reed067 Location: Rutherfordton,NC 17,085 posts, read 10,498,721 times Reputation: 11486 Quote: Love2Create Originally Posted by Hi, thanks for your reply.

Welcome to Asheville! Welcome to Asheville! 02-18-2015, 06:19 AM Susieisanartist Location: Fairview 397 posts, read 482,605 times Reputation: 704 I think it's doable if you compromise on "modern" and, possibly, on "clean". You'll probably need to sacrifice a bedroom and a bathroom, too.

She loves it and she and her roommates feel grateful to be getting such a great deal so close to downtown! Welcome to Asheville, indeed! My daughter is renting a 3 bedroom apartment with 2 roommates a little under 10 mins. walking distance to Pritchard Park. They are only paying $1200/month plus utilities. However, the place does not allow dogs, is very old, the apt. has only 1 (very, very small) bathroom, and has a heating system that rumbles so loudly that I actually got nervous the first time hearing it (and I don't get nervous easily). The heating system seems to only work in the living room and only has the ability to bring the temp. up to 65, at best. In the winter everyone huddles around it, wrapped in blankets. They all have about 4 blankets on their beds to stay warm at night, while sleeping in nice warm sweaters. The kitchen looks like it hasn't been updated in decades (literally), but somehow that has its own charm, yellowed porcelain sink and old linoleum floor and all.They also have nice, old wood floors, thick walls, and lovely french doors going out to a small balcony, beyond which lies Merrimon Ave., beyond which are nice views of some mountains if you lean just so to the right, sitting in a particular area of the livingroom.
