Make Your Move Off Campus With Help From a Locally Owned Rental Company

Looking for off-campus housing in Athens can be a huge hassle if you let it become one. The good news is that we at Krause Rental Properties have made the Athens Ohio rental housing search very easy for you. Instead of wasting time looking through want ads or driving around seeking “for rent” signs that will lead to the best apartments in Athens, you can sit back and check out our wide variety of rentals. With everything from studio apartments to five-person houses, we’re sure to have something for you. We offer affordable, well-maintained rentals in great locations, some close to campus and uptown and some tucked in Athens’ unique neighborhoods. Check the listing for each property to see what amenities are offered and other details.

The Search for Housing Made Simple

There’s some great housing in Athens, as well as some that’s not so great. Krause Rental Properties makes it easy to connect with the best that Athens has to offer, and to avoid wasting your time on housing that won’t meet your standards. We feature any fit you need – whether a single unit or something for you and three or four of your friends. Want to live on Court Street in the uptown area where everything you need is right downstairs? Take your pick. Prefer someplace quieter where you can study and even have a porch and a yard? We’ve got that covered, too. Whether you want to live closer to campus or are looking for a place that’s more appropriate for a family, we’ve got something to suit. And you can search it all in one online location, with interactive maps, and make an informed, intelligent decision without leaving your couch. That sort of utility – minimizing the need for multiple face-to-face contacts – also helps you stay safe during the continuing coronavirus pandemic.

No Matter Your Preference, We Have OU Student Rentals to Suit You

Your choice of rental housing can substantially contribute to the quality of your life, or detract from it if you make the wrong choice. If you don’t mind daily walks to help put your thoughts in order and enjoy the outdoors while getting exercise, living in a house on the West Side might be right for you. For example, we have several houses and condos in West Side neighborhoods, an area that has a lot to offer including bars, restaurants, medical facilities, and a small full-service grocery store. The Near East Side and North Side likewise offer rentals close to OU, with nearby shopping, bars and restaurants, but not in the middle of the hustle and bustle of uptown. If you’re not within easy walking distance and don’t have a car, Athens has a great bus system with very reasonable rates.

If you prefer the best of both worlds – a funky house with a yard and porch but only a five-minute walk to campus and uptown – we have rentals in the popular Mill-Stewart-Palmer neighborhood just down the Mill Street hill from uptown, and a block or two from classroom buildings on the East Green (Seigfred, Morton, McCracken, etc.).

Great Rentals Near OSU in Columbus, Too

If you’re a Buckeye rather than a Bobcat, Krause Rental Properties has some quality rental apartments in Columbus, within a short walk of the Ohio State campus and the commercial district on North High Street. These can be searched and reviewed on the same website where you can view apartments and houses near OU in Athens, with an easy-to-use map to help you get your bearings. Our Columbus apartments are located in sectioned houses or small buildings, so if a big apartment block doesn’t suit you, you’re in luck.
