Hey UNECOMers,
First off, congrats
on getting accepted and being. Alot of people will tell you that the hardest part is over. And I'd agree with them. You did it and you are about to go to a great school. Trust me. I graduated from there and got a great residency.
That being said, I want to offer you a hosuing option. I own a house at:
81 Clifford Street in Biddeford (3 miles from campus)

The house is the stuff of UNECOM legend. It has been cultivated and furnished expressly for UNECOM students only. I ONLY rent to UNECOM medical students. I'd rather the house be empty than be rented to anyone else.
Rent is $440/month. (1 month security deposit required) That includes water and sewer bills for the year. Utilities not included are electricity (about $20-30/month), cable/high speed wifi internet ($120/month for premium), and oil (varies according to time of year: very low in summer and could be a little more in winter depending on how hot you like the house). The place is very well insulated with new windows in some places and the roof was redone about 4 years ago. I also use environmentally friendly and energy efficient halogen bulbs wherever applicable to keep down on energy bills.
House has paved driveway with room for 4 cars, 2 car garage, big back yard, open basement with bar, wine cellar and laundry facilities (washer, dryer, cabinets), kitchen with dishwasher and fire extinguisher, dining room, 3 bathrooms, library/study room with medical books and board materials, TV room, front porch, side porch (screened in), 4 bedrooms for a total of 4 occupants. The place is amazing and I have spent the past 3 years grooming it to be a fun and friendly learning atmosphere. I only rent to med students because I am one of you and I know what you need and I'd rather rent it to you than some random locals. The whole house is fully furnished (except for 2 of the bedrooms). So you'll just need what you want in your room (i.e. desk, TV for your room, dresser your greatgreat grandpa hued from a single oak, etc.). Kitchen has some plates, cups and utensils, but bring any specialty items you need to cook.
I have a property manager available 24/7 for any emergencies and I always give notice before any visits.

Again, congrats and I hope to hear from you.
