Checklist for Renting an Apartment
Before you sign a rental agreement, take a few minutes to think about it. Everything is not always what it seems, and you may save yourself future grief and frustration by using a checklist before renting your next apartment.
Safety
Safety is paramount to most apartment renters, so how can you ensure that your new home is as safe as the rental agent tells you? Many police departments have searchable websites with crime statistics by neighborhood, but you may also stop by or make a telephone call to be sure. Asking questions of neighbors and other tenants can also give you insight as the safety of your new location. Check all doors, windows, fire escapes, emergency exits in the apartment, hallways and common areas; and make notes if deficiencies are found.
Parking
Especially in busy towns or major cities, parking can be a real issue. Ask the rental agent how many parking spaces are aloud, whether they are reserved for tenants and how to go about enforcement if they are occupied. If you are sharing a driveway with other tenants, speak with them to make parking arrangements according to work or school schedules.
Under Construction
If part of your building or apartment is under repair or will require it, ask the rental agent the approximate finish date and get it in writing on the rental agreement. Include applicable items within the apartment such as painting, carpeting, appliance installation or repair, leaking faucets and other items as you inspect the property.
Amenities and Utilities
Ask about laundry facilities, cable access and hook-up permissions, trash pickup, snow removal, lawn care, and who to call if issues arise. Be certain that included utilities are listed on the agreement, and if they are not, ask about the approximate utility costs to avoid nasty surprises. The local utility company may be able to provide an idea of past charges for the address with a phone call.
Proximity
Having nearby stores and services you'll frequent can add value and convenience. Grocery stores, gas stations, a laundromat, post office, a pharmacy, pizza joints and restaurants in your immediate neighborhood will enhance your enjoyment of the new neighborhood and potentially eliminate long trips for everyday items.
Get it in Writing
Whatever the rental agent or landlord tells you, make sure it's included in the agreement. If not, have the responsible party create a written addendum to the rental paperwork. Retain a copy of the agreement in a safe place and refer to it if questions or problems arise. Verbal agreements and promises are not always as easy to enforce as one might think, so always get it in writing.
