Whenever looking at an apartment listing and it says 1200/2bdr does that mean 600 per person?

I am talking about on Craigs list and such. Is it split between the two people or 1200 per bedroom?

Answer:
Apartments are always listed in this way:

Price: is for the entire apartment
BR: is for your information regarding number of people who can live there, perhaps you have a child and you want the child to sleep in their own room, etc.
SQ FT: Area of floor space within the apartment, heated or A/C space, not including exterior porches, garages, etc.

They are never priced per bedroom. In your example, you would have to pay $1200 per month. you get to have 2 bedrooms, you may be able to lease the 2nd bedroom to a friend but you would be responsible for the whole $1200. You can determine what you would charge the friend, it doesn't have to be half. Since you are taking responsibility for the whole amount, you can charge more than half, $750 for example..

Hope that helps.

that's square footage
It means the rent is $1200.00
It means it's a 2 bedroom apartment and the whole apartment (kitchen, living room, everything) is 1200 square feet.
It's $1200 for the whole apartment likely. But you can always send them an email to ask for certain.
It means 1200 a month for the apartment
1200 square feet and 2 bedrooms.
it means it is a 1200 square foot apartment that has 2 bed rooms
Sounds like 1200 square feet with 2 bedrooms to me. ?
It means 1200 per month. If you can find a roommate its $600 per person, otherwise you're on the hook for the entire amount. Make sure you both sign the lease so you both are responsible.
I think it means 1200 square feet.
It means the rent for the apartment is 1200 dollars. Whoever signs the lease is responsible for that amount, regardless of how many people are living there. If the listing mentions square footage, it will say something like 1200 sq ft.
it means $1200 amonth and it has 2 br the only way its $600 per person is if u have a roommate that plits the rent with you
you're kidding right? It means exactly what it says 1200 a month for a 2 bedroom apartment. They won't care which way you split it as long as you pay on time <smile>
