What is Grant’s basic rule for an Aggie moving from College Station to Dallas?

Quick answer

Start with the neighborhood, not the apartment. Grant wants the renter to identify the Dallas areas that fit their social life and lifestyle, then make sure the employer commute is practical. After that, compare effective rent and tour only the strongest apartment finalists. The goal is not to see twenty buildings; it is to make a confident choice among a curated group that fits the life you want after Aggieland.
