As November begins, so does Ann Arbor’s annual housing blitz. Every fall, students at the University of Michigan scramble to find roommates, reach out to landlords and secure a place on waitlists to sign a lease for the next school year. This process is made even more difficult by the numerous fees that accompany the process. Waitlist fees, application fees and other nondescript service fees have become unavoidable as the city’s demand for housing far outpaces its supply.
