If you've been looking for a Vic Village South UMich sublease, we have one live listing in that building right now, and it lines up with a January start. Below, we lay out exactly what that listing shows, along with a few other current Ann Arbor listings that are also subleases or lease takeovers.

Affordable Vic Village S. Apt Sublease! is our one live listing in the building, at $1,250/month. It's a furnished apartment listed with 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms on a sublease, with timing given as January - July 2027. The address is 1116 S University Ave in Ann Arbor, and it's listed as under 5 minutes by car from campus. The listing says each available bedroom has its own bathroom and the apartment has an in-unit washer and dryer. Ask the lister whether the price is per room and how many rooms are open.

1313 South State St is a different option, a sublease at $1,050/month. It's an apartment with 1 bedroom and 1 bathroom, and it's listed as 5 to 10 minutes by car from campus. Its timing reads now to August 20th. The listing says heating, water and air conditioning are provided by the landlord, that a washer and dryer are available on site, and that pets aren't allowed. It's marked unfurnished, though the description mentions some furniture, so ask what stays.

1 bedroom apartment-Manchester West is another sublease, at $1,249/month on W Liberty St in Ann Arbor. It's an unfurnished 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom apartment listed as more than 10 minutes by car from campus. The listing says it has a washer and dryer in the unit and a covered parking spot. Its timing reads now until 7/18, so confirm the exact end date with the lister.

Wonderful House is a sublease on a house at $2,650/month. It has 3 bedrooms and 1.5 bathrooms, it's unfurnished, and it's listed as under 5 minutes by car from campus. The start date is listed as Nov 27 2026, and the description says the sublease runs through May 2027. Ask the owner how a lease after May would work.

On Campus Apartment is a furnished apartment at $2,079/month on S Forest Ave in Ann Arbor, listed as under 5 minutes by car from campus. It's on a year lease (12 months), with timing given as August to July 2027, and the description says the lister is looking for someone to take over the lease. The bedroom and bathroom counts in the listing's fields don't match its description, so confirm the layout and what the price covers with the lister before you apply.

What Ann Arbor students are posting about

In student posts in local Facebook housing groups collected on 9 Nov 2026, we looked at 32 new posts from the Ann Arbor area. They're a snapshot of what people are discussing, not OCU data and not a market rate.

Across those student posts collected on 9 Nov 2026, the median rent per person that students quoted was $1,000. That figure comes from the amounts people typed in their posts, so treat it as context rather than a price to expect.

Semester timing and subleases came up often in those same Facebook housing-group posts, which makes sense heading into winter term. Furnished places, being close to campus, laundry, roommates, parking and pets also came up often, and the local terms that appeared included Ann Arbor and Central Campus.

Four of the five listings above are subleases and the fifth is a lease takeover, so they fit what students are talking about. They differ a lot in size and price, though, from a 1-bedroom apartment to a full house, so it's worth deciding early whether you want your own place or a room in a shared one.

It also helps to think about how you'll use the place day to day. A furnished room saves you from buying a bed and desk for a few months, which matters if you're only staying through the summer. An unfurnished apartment can feel more like your own space, but you'll need a plan for furniture both in January and when you move out. Ask each lister what's left behind and what you'd need to bring.

Vic Village South UMich sublease: what student posts mentioned

For a Vic Village South UMich sublease specifically, the student side of the picture is small. In student posts in local Facebook housing groups collected on 9 Nov 2026, 3 posts mentioned the building, and the rents students quoted in them were $1,400, $1,450 and $1,900.

Those same student posts named a studio floor plan, and they mentioned a gym, a rooftop, furnished units, in-unit washers and private bathrooms. Those amenities were mentioned in student posts, not confirmed by us, so ask the lister or the building's leasing office what's actually included.

On our side, there's one live listing in the building. It's listed with 2 bedrooms, it's furnished, and its timing runs from January to July 2027. That's everything we can say about the building from our own data, so anything else is a question for the lister.

If you're weighing this against the other subleases above, compare the full monthly cost, the end date and what's furnished. A sublease that ends in July means you'll need a plan for next fall, so it can help to start looking for that at the same time.

Finally, keep your own notes as you message listers. Write down the price, the dates, what's included and who you spoke with for each place. When you're comparing several subleases at once over the holidays, that record makes it much easier to decide quickly when a good option comes up.

Tips before you take over a lease in Ann Arbor

• Ask the original tenant for a copy of the lease and confirm the landlord or leasing office approves the sublease in writing.

• Confirm whether the price is per room or for the whole unit, and what utilities, parking or other fees add each month.

• Get the exact move-in and move-out dates, and ask whether you could renew or sign directly with the landlord after the sublease ends.

• Tour the unit in person or by video before sending any money, and ask what furniture and appliances stay.
