3. Marquis at Bellaire
Although this apartment is about the same price as the Gables, it is in a decidedly worse area of town. Located just inside the Loop north of Bissonet, the Marquis often has move-in specials that can lower the price, such as $200 off your first month on a one-year lease, which can be quite attractive. They have student and senior specials, large countertops, walk-in closets, cable TV, w/d connections, and large kitchen pantries. The community offers easy access to freeways as well as gated access and beautiful grounds. The lighting in the apartments is also quite unique. One-bedroom apartments start at $775.
