We can’t imagine this first one will last for long. It’s located on Peterboro close to Woodward. It’s near the new arena, QLINE, and Midtown. This two-bedroom apartment is in a historic house and includes a gated parking space. The layout is pretty odd, with sharp sloping ceilings. But the location and price will likely draw plenty of interest. It’s listing for $1,099 a month.

This next rental is lacking on the interior pics, but it does have a coveted riverfront location. This one bedroom, one bath River Place apartment is only 680 square feet, but it does have big windows and high ceilings. The apartments include a fitness center and parking, and it’s listing for $1,100 a month.

Here’s a two bedroom, one bath rental in Woodbridge. Located on the beautiful Commonwealth Street, it has nice hardwood floors, it’s close to Wayne State, and it’s listing for $900 a month.

This next listing is a single family house out in Grandmont. It has vintage character, three bedrooms, and a bar in the basement. It’s listing for $1,000 a month.

This three bedroom flat in the Virginia Park area (west of the Lodge) is 1,200 square feet, with a fenced yard, newer fixtures, a basement with storage, and an enclosed porch. It’s renting for $900 a month.
