To move or not to move?
I'm in a quandary.
My lease is up at the end of June, which means I need to decide if I'm moving out pretty quickly.
I mainly want to move to have a real workspace. As I've said before, the management gets nervous when I say "propane tank" and "open flame soldering". But duplex rents haven't really come down much here in Austin--our economy and house prices have been relatively stable. (So far, anyway.) At least apartment rents are on the way down. Maybe I can find one I don't hate with a garage. I've been informed that my rent won't go up this time (there's a first), and maybe I can talk them into a slight decrease...
I've applied for space at a couple of artist's spaces, namely the Pump Project. They do charge for space, but a shared space is only about $90/month...which is just barely affordable. If anyone can think of another place, I'll be glad of the referral.
I can always get another 9 month lease and move next spring if I have to. Hmmm. Anybody have any opinions on this?
And does anyone have a FAQ on crossposting to DW?
