Garage or no garage?

[Kyle R]

In August, i'm moving to a new apartment complex in a nice area and garages are offered. I was put on the wait list 4 months ago, and they have told me that they were able to locate a garage for me right next to my apartment. Keep in mine, there are 400 apartments on the complex, and 30 garages The garage cost $75 per month. I feel like this is an easy question to answer, but how many of you think I should just get the garage and spend the extra money? Any constructive criticism is welcome.

Are you allowed to work in the garage?

I vote to get it.

A "garaged" vehicle is a good investment. Try it for a few months, you can always change your mind based on $. I assume you can give 30 days notice.

If you can financially I would say get it. It will also be nice to have peace of mind knowing your car is safely tucked away. Plus I would imagine you'll have a bit more storage space and a place to work on your car.

Yes, you are allowed to work on the car in the garage. I do plan on getting the garage now. The car has been in a garage its whole life, and I don't see why I should change that now. I also plan on getting a new car within then next year, so that will have to be in the garage anyways . Also, if I don't get the garage now, there is a good chance I will never get one that is close to my apartment, I would have to walk around the complex just to get there. Thanks for all of the comments.

Definitely a garage.

Definitely garage! Amazing how much cleaner the car stays when it's tucked away daily vs. sitting outside 24/7.

Is there power in the unit? Are there walls that separate them from the other units?

Plus its nice to only have to clay once or twice a year vs several times if parked outside every night.

Kyle, I've admired your car from afar. I would prefer you park it inside.

Thanks,

Re: Garage or no garage?

Thanks for all of the replies! I have reserved the garage along with the apartment. I just can't see my Z being left outside for a mere $75 a month. The garages are also all separated from one another, and they do have power units. The only thing they don't have is shelves, but I can bring my own.
