New Apartments in Gainesville, FL

Many Gainesville neighborhoods are growing and adding new apartment communities, particularly in the areas around the University of Florida and Santa Fe College campuses. The developers of these new communities are targeting the student populations’ demand for ever increasing amenities. New apartments are built with all the latest tenant needs (and desires) in mind. Often new apartment developments will offer complimentary wireless Internet, high-end kitchens, and community features not found in older properties, like lazy rivers and on-site coffee shops. New apartments are also interested in providing residents with a more environmentally conscious way of living through the use LED lighting and more energy-efficient construction.

As with all real estate, location is the primary amenity. And, several of the new apartment communities under construction now in Gainesville boast their proximity to UF in terms of steps – now that’s close. In addition, many of these new apartments are within larger, mixed-use developments so the tenants will also have on-site access to a wide variety of retail options for dining, entertainment and shopping.

While the rental rates on new apartments may be a little higher than older apartment communities, many student renters appreciate the updated amenities and are happy to pay the higher rates for the location and features now available.
