Find The Perfect Boston Home So You Can Attend Red Sox Games

The crack of the bat booming in the stadium. The crowd roaring as the ball made of cork, yarn and leather flies overhead as the player runs to tag the bases. Baseball season has arrived, and with it the sights of the game, the sounds of the pitches and tastes of the stadium hotdogs and French fries.

As a kid who lived in Boston, you loved attending a Red Sox game at Fenway stadium. Because traffic and finding a parking space was always a hassle, you took public transportation as you and you father left your Brookline apartments and hopped on the T-Subway toward 4 Yawkey Way in the heart of Boston. Riding the T to the Red Sox game was just about as fun as watching the game, as you studied all the many locals and visitors riding the subway who had stories to tell about the neighborhoods where they lived.

Now you are a professional businessman who wants to relive your memories of attending a Red Sox game this season, or you may now have a son who wants to learn all about baseball. Although your old childhood home is long gone, you now have the opportunity to purchase a brand new home in the Boston area.

Like anyone interested in purchasing or renting Boston real estate, you need to do your research and select the right Boston apartments that fits into your budget. Sure, the closer you live to Fenway Park, the better. But you need to explore all your options, appraise the house or apartment, and negotiate closing costs for ownership or sign the leasing agreement.

If you live out-of-state or your work schedule simply doesn’t allow you to look for the new home you want, your best option may be to get in touch with some Boston real estate agents. They can locate homes in your price range in popular Boston neighborhoods. The real estate agent might find the right Brighton housing, Brookline condos, or Fenway apartments that is perfect for you.

Basic Tax Filing Tips for College Students

As if final exams weren’t bad enough, most working college students face an added pressure when spring rolls around: filing taxes. While filing taxes is not as much of a hassle for broke college students as it is for more established professionals (college students have few, if any deductions to make) it still can be very difficult, as many students are still new to the whole concept. If you are a college student living in the Boston area, it doesn’t matter if you’re in the Brighton apartments, Northeastern University apartments or Allston apartments. You are going to need to get your taxes done, and you probably won’t have mom and dad to help you out this time. These tips should help to keep you on the straight and narrow:

Get a Head Start

Not doing anything for spring break? Start working on your taxes now! The last thing you need is to get to April 15th and still be scrambling to finish them up. If you’re heading home for spring break, take advantage of your parents’ expertise. If you’re going to be stuck in Boston College housing take advantage of the quiet and get those taxes out of the way.

Deductions

If you aren’t claimed as a dependent, you might be able to make a deduction for your college tuition. There are all kinds of education tax credits available for students. These may even wipe out any taxes that you owe.

Figure out Residency Qualifications

If you are living in the Boston University apartments for part of the year and spending summers in another state, you’ll have two states trying to get their hands on your money. Take a little time to find out if you are qualified to be considered a resident in your home state.

Choosing the Right Pet for Your Boston College Apartment

Posted by nwarren at 15 March 2012

Category: ALLSTON, Allston Apartments, Boston apartment, STUDENT APARTMENTS BOSTON, apartment, apartment Brighton, apartment Brighton MA, apartments Boston, apartments Kenmore, student rentals

Tags: apartment pets, boston apartment pets, choosing a pet, college apartment pets, finding a boston pet, the right pet

When you’re thinking about brining a pet to live in your boston apartment there are several things to consider. The first, and probably most important, is how long are you away from home each day? This will help you choose the right pet for your particular living situation. Puppies and dogs need exercise and a chance to visit the great outdoors several times each day, so if you work long hours or are a student with a large class load, a dog or puppy may not be the best choice. Of course you can always hire someone to come by and walk the dog at least once a day while you are at work or school, but most college students have a limited budget and may not be able to afford this service.

Animal lovers have lots of options for pets in Brighton apartments, even if a dog isn’t the best choice. Cats love attention, but need a lot less of it to be content. Food, fresh water and a clean litter box are all you need to keep your cat happy in your Allston apartment. If you do need to be gone for a few days, having a friend come by once a day to take care of your cat’s needs is easy to do.

Check with your Boston apartments’ landlord about the apartment pet policy. Most apartments require a pet deposit or only allow small animals like fish or birds in their units. Pets are fun, but they can be costly when you start adding up pet deposits, food and veterinary care. Make sure you can support a pet before you bring one home.

Tips and Tricks on Living in Boston on a Broke College Student Budget

When you’re a broke college student, Boston can be a tough place to live because it is so expensive and there are so many fun things you want to do in the city, but there never seem to be enough money for it all. Boston college apartments are notoriously pricey, but with some creativity, you can make living in and enjoying Boston work, even on a really tight budget.

One of the best tricks is to find a couple of roommates from your school to help you share the cost of living. Once you’re looking together for Boston University housing or Allston apartments, you can split not only the rent, but also the utilities. This adds up to significant savings for all of you, plus it’s more fun because you always have some friends around.

After that, the other main thing you can do is to look a little further away from the usual housing spots. Head a few blocks out and see your rent drop dramatically. For example, rather than looking for Boston College housing right off campus, search for Brighton apartments in general. As long as you have a bike to get around, you’ll hardly notice the extra distance, but your budget will definitely see the difference.

Beyond just the tips related to college apartments Boston students can use several other strategies to stretch their budgets. For example, rather than eating in the cafeteria on campus or in restaurants nearby, shop at the grocery store for basic staples and prepare them yourself in your apartment kitchen. You can also keep your thermostat at a reasonable temperature to minimize your cost on utilities. Just a few degrees can make a big difference, especially in the winter.

You are college bound to Boston, Massachusetts. With a multitude of colleges and universities to gain a rewarding education for a successful career, you’ll also want to experience the cultural sights and shopping opportunities that Boston has to offer.

From the northeastern university apartments or Allston apartments of the city, make your way to the Downtown Crossing Holiday Market. Christmas shopping is made easier for the college student where you can find the unusual gift for those on your shopping list. The Downtown Crossing is located in the heart of downtown, east of the Boston Common.

Strictly open for pedestrian traffic, the Downtown Crossing has a multitude of shops and eating places mixed in with historic sites and night clubs. Besides brick-and-mortar stores, there are sidewalk vendors, musicians and street performers to make your sight-seeing experience a fantastic one.

Once every year, the Downtown Crossing has a Holiday Market, which consists of a long tent that stretches down the street. The Downtown Crossing Holiday Market begins after Thanksgiving and lasts all the way to Christmas Eve. This gives college students, whose funds are mostly going toward paying for their Brighton apartment rental, the opportunity to find a great handmade gift or souvenir at a great price to send back home to their families to celebrate the holiday season.

The vendors sell everything from clothes, jewelry, handbags, food and handmade crafts. You can find a mixture of everything throughout the weeks, since vendors may stay for a short period of time to be replaced by other merchants selling their wares. Even more, many of the vendors offer eco-friendly products. So know that your purchase is also helping the environment.

The best way to get to the Downtown Crossing Holiday Market is by bus and the MBTA’s Downtown Crossing subway station. Driving your car through the downtown is a difficult venture, and many of the streets for the Downtown Crossing have been closed to allow for the pedestrian traffic.

So don’t stay locked away in your Boston college housing for the holiday season. Set down the books, take a break and visit the many stores and eateries on your way to the Downtown Crossing. Get all your Christmas shopping done at the Holiday Market and even get your research started concerning all the Boston historical sites located downtown, such as the Boston Irish Famine Memorial. Grab a bite to eat at the Corner Mall, and perhaps stay a little bit longer for some dancing at one of the many clubs.

Downtown Crossing has a bit of something for everyone when visiting its many stores. As a college student, you can obtain most housing in your price range at the Allston-Brighton apartments area located in the downtown Boston area. With a nice apartment at a convenient location, your college experience will be one to write home about along with sending that special gift for Christmas.

So plan your education to include the many great universities located in Boston, Massachusetts. Budget your finances to obtain that Boston university apartment that is perfect for your needs, and leave a little extra money squirreled away to visit the Downtown Crossing Holiday Market for the holiday season.

Promote the environment and the small business owner who offers handmade crafts by taking a stroll among the tents to find the perfect Christmas gift. But you only have a limited time. Remember, the Downtown Crossing Holiday Market is only open between the Thanksgiving and Christmas holiday. And vendors are changing daily, opening up booths for only a few days to a week before moving on and allowing another vendor to take their place. So grab that special and unique gift while you can.

The Downtown Crossing Holiday Market. Great prices from professional vendors located at the heart of downtown Boston. Welcome, college students! Have a shopping adventure through the historic site and fine eating restaurants as you enjoy your academic time in a wonderful city.

Harvard Square Holiday Craft Fairs

The holidays are coming and its that time of year when we all need to make our lists and check them twice. Holiday shopping can be a nightmare, especially for the novice shopper who doesn’t understand the difference between Black Friday and Blue Moon. But there are relatives and friends who deserve to be recognized with a token gift, and the Harvard Square Holiday Craft Fairs may be just the answer to your holiday shopping needs.

The annual fair is housed in the First Parish Unitarian Church located at the corner of Church Street and Massachusetts Avenue, better known to the locals as Mass Ave. The location is especially convenient for apartment dwellers housed in Allston apartments, Boston University housing, Fenway apartments, Boston College housing, Brighton apartments and Northeastern University apartments. With several shopping dates and plenty of craft vendors, the Harvard Square Holiday Craft Fairs could become your one-stop shopping extravaganza this year.

Vendors selling unique wares include native New England crafters and world traveling importers. These original and affordable gifts are displayed within the confines of the church building and in the outside courtyard area. Though the dates of the fairs vary each year, it will typically be open to the public a dozen or so days during the month of December. This means affordability, convenience and just plain fun all under one roof and sky.

The shopping experience is unique in a host of ways. It is typical Harvard Square style with music blaring, energy bouncing and people bumping into friends old and new. The gift items are anything but run of the mill. In many cases, the crafter or artist is the exhibitor, so shoppers can put a face with a talent. This also opens the opportunity for asking questions and possibly negotiating special orders for a special someone on your holiday gift list. Unique one-of-a-kind items are the norm as opposed to the exception. This experience is nothing like a day at the mall – this is live energy, good karma and rare finds. So put aside any stereotypical visions you might have about performing the holiday shopping chore. This is a walk in the park – literally.

Last year, the Harvard Square Craft Fairs celebrated 25 years of this gathering of crafters. From handmade jewelry to hand-thrown pottery to carved wood, you simply cannot walk away without finding a few must-have items. Those who appreciate true craftsmanship will be mesmerized by the array of colors, textures and art mediums from which to choose. And somehow, the atmosphere also tends to bring out a little bit of the artist in every one of its visitors. Be prepared to walk away with not only purchased gift items, but a renewed sense of creativity.

This year’s annual fair dates are as follows:

Saturday and Sunday, December 3rd and 4th

Friday, Saturday and Sunday, December 9th, 10th and 11th

December 16th through the 18th

December 20th through the 24th

On Saturdays, the fair is open from 10 am to 7 pm, and on Sundays the hours are from 12 noon to 6 pm. Weekday hours are from 11:30 am to 7 pm.

A sampling of this year’s offerings include beaded, glass and vintage jewelry, stoneware pottery, fleece for adults and children, cards, prints, calendars, novelty t-shirts, photography, bath and body products, candles, pewter, glass, wovens, chocolates, jams, woolens and honey. The variety and number of items means you can cross off every person on your receiving list including family, friends, professors, your manicurist and the little old lady who keeps your cat when you go out of town.

Don’t miss the Harvard Square Holiday Craft Fairs. It is an event to be remembered and revisited often. Happy holidays!

Get in the Holiday Spirit by Joining the 2011 Santa Speedo Run

In 2000, five guys got together and thought it would be a hoot to get into the holiday spirit by running around Boston wearing only Santa hats and Speedos. The men ran through Newbury Street, a part of Boston known for its high-end stores, carrying a boombox playing the Muppets Christmas Carols. Surprised to see what a positive reaction they garnered from the crowd, this became the unofficial first Santa Speedo Run in Boston.

Charitable Causes

Over the years, the number of runners has increased exponentially. The 2011 Santa Speedo Run expects to attract hundreds of runners. Each participant enlists sponsors in order to raise money for charities that help children. Charities in the past that received money from the Boston event include the Play Ball Foundation, Cradles to Crayons, the September 11th Children’s Fund and the Starlight Children’s Foundation.

Area Participants

Runners come from all areas of the city. Participants arrive from Boston University apartments, Brighton rentals and Allston Apartments. Running groups are formed in Brighton apartments and Fenway apartments. Put up signs in your development to see if anyone would be interested in raising money for this worthy cause.

Registration

To get started, register as an individual or a team online through the Santa Speedo Run website. You can join a team or run on your own. Besides paying the $30 registration fee, you must commit to a fundraising goal of at least $400. Donations can be made online or given directly to you.

Don’t forget to read over the waivers and cancellation agreements before you register. The waiver acknowledges the potential dangers associated with running in only your bathing suit in freezing cold conditions. Other hazards include tripping, slipping on icy roadways and getting hit by a vehicle as you cross roadways. You also agree to provide the charity with adequate notice if you plan to cancel. The run only allows a maximum of 500 participants and keeps a waitlist in case of cancellations.

Required Attire

What do you wear? No shrinking violets in this humorous event. A Speedo like bathing suit is required to run in the event. However, keep those thongs at home. No need to flash the crowds of holiday shoppers. Besides the swimsuit, runners wear a Santa hat or beard and sneakers. Bring along a bag to change into warmer clothes once the run is done. Also, don’t forget to bring along your registration paperwork and any donations you’ve collected.

Event Details

You must be 21 to run in the event and the festivities kick off at 10 am on December 10, 2011 when the doors open at Lir Tavern at 903 Boylston Street in Boston. After check-in and plenty of time to gather some liquid courage, the run begins at 1 pm. The one-mile jog heads down Boylston Street until the runners reach Berkeley Street. Newbury Street is used as the return route and participants finish back at the Lir Tavern. The post-run party starts at 1:30 pm and continues into the wee hours of the night.

Students in college apartments in Boston will not regret getting involved in this exciting annual event. The drinks flow freely as you get into the holiday spirit and raise money for a good cause. Expect to see some interesting swimwear and festive accessories as you race through the city. The fun doesn’t stop after the race as you get dressed and mingle at Lir Tavern.
