When you’re making plans to relocate to a new city for work, school, or any other reason, it can understandably be nerve-wracking. Even when you happen to be heading to a dynamic and exciting city like Atlanta, Georgia, the logistics of it all can seem overwhelming at first. Here, you’ll find you have easy access to incredible historical landmarks, thriving business districts, more than 60 universities and colleges, as well as entertainment areas that are rich with opportunities to explore. While the appeal is very real, relocating still requires a lot of planning to make it a smooth transition and that’s where the team at BCA Furnished Apartments comes in. Our team is dedicated to helping those who are relocating to Atlanta do so in a stress-free way and as streamlined as possible.
We know you can’t always predict how it’s all going to go, so we show up to provide our guests with fully furnished apartments that can be utilized for anywhere from a week to upward of 6 months at a time. We work with your schedule to ensure you have what you need upon arrival in your new city. Yes, there are challenges, but when you partner with us, we’ll help you get through it all one step at a time with convenience and comfort built into the experience starting on day one of your journey.
Challenge #1: Finding the Right Neighborhood
Knowing where you want to settle permanently in Atlanta is a big choice. Many newcomers to the city quickly discover that Atlanta is a destination that’s designed around acronyms and understanding them can help you get your bearings when you’re looking for just the right neighborhood to call your own. Many of the acronyms used to refer to areas of Atlanta are defined by Interstate 285, which loops around the city and creates a clear perimeter. It’s common to hear locals refer to ITP when referencing homes and neighborhoods that sit within this perimeter. OTP is often the designation for neighborhoods and homes outside of that same perimeter. There’s a certain understanding that ITP neighborhoods appeal to those looking for a more energetic vibe complete with access to upscale shopping and dining. OTP neighborhoods are often those that appeal to families looking for a more laid-back atmosphere.
While there are always exceptions to every rule, having an idea of what to expect can help you narrow down your forever home search. Some of the fan-favorite ITP neighborhoods we would recommend at BCA Furnished Apartments include Buckhead, Decatur, Midtown, West Midtown, Westside, Virginia Highlands, Little Five Points (L5P), Grant Park, Old Fourth Ward (O4W), and East Atlanta Village (EAV). If you’re drawn to the OTP neighborhoods, we would encourage you to check out Sandy Springs, John’s Creek, Peachtree Corners, Alpharetta, and Roswell.
Challenge #2: Learning How to Get Around the City
Relocating to Atlanta is a chance to take advantage of a robust public transportation system. Many residents living in the city center neighborhoods end up swapping out their vehicles for the Metropolitan Atlanta Rapid Transit Authority (MARTA) instead. The system includes buses and trains that many consider relatively easy to navigate. There are also rideshare services available across Atlanta, and bike and scooter rentals for those who prefer to pedal their way from point A to point B. Many of the ITP neighborhoods are refreshingly walkable. When you book your initial stay through BCA Furnished Apartments during your relocation period, you’ll find our property options are centrally located with easy access to Midtown, Buckhead, 75/85, and many prominent city streets too. You won’t have to worry about getting around and can instead focus on the journey and logistics ahead.
Challenge #3: Focusing on the Big Picture Despite the Many Details
When you’re relocating to Atlanta, the city has a way of feeling like home quickly, but that doesn’t get rid of the details that come with a big move. From handling moving expenses and setting up utilities in a new location to finding the right schools for the little ones, there’s a lot to look after. Fortunately, Atlanta is home to a highly rated school system and has more than 15 charter school options to its name, with that number growing year after year. While you work on these big-picture details of your move, you can leave the stress of the small details and daily essentials to the team at BCA Furnished Apartments. We take care of everything when it comes to your temporary accommodations, so you can focus on what needs to be done to get settled into your new, permanent residence.
Our fully furnished apartments, condos, and executive apartments come with spacious floor plans, comfortable furnishings already in place, and options for housekeeping services. If you book a studio for 7 nights or more, weekly housekeeping is built into the package deal while stays for more than 14 nights in one of our 1-,2-, or 3-bedroom properties come with bi-weekly housekeeping. From properties with coin-operated laundry rooms to apartments with in-unit washers and dryers as well as kitchens, we make sure you have everything you need to live stress-free and energize up for the journey ahead.
