Wanting Apartment Roommate?

               Hi Everyone!

When renting an apartment, understand if your roommate decides to move out when the lease expires, you could get affected financially if you factored in your roommates share of the apartment rent when you moved in. Best option to do would be before you sign the lease, make sure you can afford the rent solely, so that way you will know if you decide to get a roommate, they won't affect you financially if they decide to leave.

Apartment Repair Fees

              Hi Everyone!

When renting an apartment, understand in your lease, the apartment repair fees you will be responsible for. What this means is actually before you sign your apartment lease, make sure you ask your property manager or landlord, to explain your responsibilities of your share of the apartment repair fees if the apartment lease states, it will be tenants responsibility from neglect as well as damage caused by the tenant. Knowing this in advance will help future surprises, if you clean the unit, and are expecting the security deposit back, but landlord or property manager reveals repair deductions will be applied from neglect as well as damaged caused by tenant. At times their have been apartment cases where the apartment repair fees exceed the security deposit, so ask before you sign the apartment lease, your apartment repair responsibilities.

Rental History

Hi Everyone!

When renting an apartment, understand your very first rental payment starts the rental history. Landlords and property managers use your monthly rental payments, to actually create your rental history. So in conclusion make sure you make monthly rental payments on time, since doing this will help you if you decide to move, and rent another apartment, and your rental history is triggered when the application process starts.

Paying Rent On Time

       

Hi Everyone!

Majority of us from time to time might slip, and pay a bill late, outside the grace period, but doing this with an apartment you rent gets recorded in your renter file. Best thing to do is to avoid paying rent outside your grace period, and if you end up paying rent late, ask your apartment manager to print out your file on your payment history, so you can get a full view of the late months. Doing this will prepare you so when you use this apartment complex as a reference, you will be able to at least know what they will release to your new apartment complex.

Renters Insurance

      

Hi Everyone!

Majority of apartment complexes require a tenant to carry renters insurance for their apartment. Walking into a lease not knowing this can cost you rejection of the lease, or out of luck for help if something happens to your personal belongings in the apartment. Key here is make sure when you're apartment searching you also the apartment locator does your specific apartment require renters insurance. Knowing this in advance can save you from unnecessary costs of not knowing.
