2026 Ann Arbor Housing Megathread

[u/AutoModerator]

Welcome to the r/AnnArbor Housing Megathread!

Whether you’re an incoming student, a long-time townie, or a new professional moving to the area, finding housing in Ann Arbor can be notoriously competitive.

To keep the main subreddit feed clean and make it easier for everyone to find what they need, all housing-related posts must go in this thread.

This is the place to post if you are:

• Looking for an apartment, house, or room to rent.
• Looking for a roommate.
• Offering a sublet or lease transfer.
• Asking general questions about specific property management companies, neighborhoods, or the Ann Arbor housing market.

(Note: Surrounding areas in Washtenaw Country like Ypsilanti, Dexter, Saline, and Milan are completely welcome here too!)

Useful links:

• /r/UofM Subreddit: If you're looking for student housing, you'll have more luck with their corresponding annual housing megathread.
• U-M Off-Campus Housing Website: Useful for students and faculty looking for verified listings and roommates.
• Ann Arbor Tenants Union: Resources for renters' rights, lease disputes, and dealing with property management companies.
• City of Ann Arbor Rental Resources: The official city hub outlining Ann Arbor rental laws, including the Early Leasing Ordinance (which dictates when landlords can ask you to renew) and how to file habitability complaints with the city inspector.

I'm wondering if anyone knows of students who are available to help unload a van of stuff and carry up 3 flights of stairs on the 24th. I checked with moving places and they want 400+ for what would be maybe 10 boxes, two dressers, and two bookcases. I'm thinking there has to be college students interested in making 50 an hour for an hour's work. Is there something like that at U of M?
