My eldest has graduated college and starts law school in Houston (STCL Downtown). She is starting to look for a place to live. She would love to live in the loop or near to downtown. She has a 1 year old Lab so would love to have access to a yard. A garage apartment or something like that would be great.

She's not locked on in the loop. If she could get a little house further out (preferably north) that would interesting too.

If anyone has something or any places to look, email me at litig8r at hotmail dot com.

She should really find her own apartment at that age....

Or she can stay at my house, it's ITL and dog friendly.

Your daughter is a 22 year old who can't find her own place and is about to go get a law degree?

Poor OP... He's going to be supporting her for years still.

Serious law student? Send Lab to live W/mom/dad.
I went to STCL - no dog, no non-law boyfriend. Clear the decks - this **** is hard!
Check the boards on campus for garage apts, etc.
Check boards at Rice , Baylor Med.
I'd tell her to buckle up....her life now is centered on STCL.

It's just law school. You can have a dog and party. Three more years of college--enjoy it.

True story

That stalk argued before SCOTUS....successfully.
LAW SCHOOL is hard, period. Even sips have to take the bar. BTW, A&M very much wanted this Law School, instead of *texas weslayan*....

STCL is a good law school. They weed out a lot of the poor students after the first semester. This from a Texas law grad.

There will be no Rule #1 compliance. Sorry.

My daughter is looking on her OWN for a place when she has time but she is working as a Legislative Aid in Austin. If any of you are familiar with the Legislature during session, it is somewhat hectic. Now that session is over, she has started looking. However, she will be staying in Austin till the end of June leaving her about 6 weeks to find some place to live and get moved.

BTW, she hasn't lived at home since her Sophomore year in college an probably doesn't need (nor really want) my help but I do it anyways.

Budget, she would like to stay close to $1000/mo.

As for her decision to go to law school, her mother and I did all we reasonably could to dissuade her. That said, she is somewhat familiar with the practice of law, law school and STCL as both her mother and I graduated from STCL, and we have both practiced law for over 30 years. She has worked at her mother's law firm and at least 3 other firms in high school and college. She has no illusion that one gets instantly rich or that it is an easy profession but she does have a good understanding of the business.

"memorial heights on Washington" is the best place to live if you have a dog. Lots of grass all over since its a garden style apartment and they have a small dog park...it's also walking distance to the new big dog park on Allen and right next to spotts park.

It's over $1000 but I would say suck it up or get a roommate....or give up the dog and live wherever. Having a dog and living in a non dog friendly place makes you a terrible owner.

The place is also close to downtown since you can go down Washington/Allen parkway/ memorial

I bought my younger daughter a used 2013 V6 Challenger.

I bought the older daughter a used 2006 Charger in 2009. She still driving it.

NO SILVY. Besides would you want a roommate with better taste in vehicles, a faster car and that can out drive you?

Why are people so shocked a dad wants to help and advise his daughter?
