Hello, and thanks for tuning into our show. Are you looking for a new apartment rental? With the housing market seeming to slow down a little, more families are now looking for the right apartment to suite their needs. Several are either holding off on the home that they meant to purchase, or some may already own a home, and just want to rent the vacancy to save money for themselves. Whatever the reason, apartments are being rented like crazy, prices are going up, and competition is more fierce than usual.
Before you rent what you think is the perfect apartment for you and your family, always remember these tips...
1. The housing market is competitive, especially for affordable apartments.
Be sure to make decisions in a timely manner. Sometimes the early bird gets the worm. If you have your eyes set on your dream apartment, have your info., references, money handy. You may come back the next day, and someone else may be moving in!
2. Is there off-street parking available for me?
Though we may not think about it, parking availablility is a very important aspect of your apartment hunt. Car theft, personal safety, & convenience all make this even more important.
3. Is there a maintenance person in the building?
If something happens, whom should you call? For some of us who like to fix things our selves, this may not be a big deal. However, what if you're NOT suppossed to fix anything. For those of you who don't like to be bothered with a problem that is someone else's responsibility, maybe you won't have to!
4. . How far away is the apartment from my work, school, etc?
When renting your apartment, keep these questions in mind. Gas/transportation can be expensive over time. You want convenience to play a partial role in your choice.
5. Names, addresses and phone numbers of previous landlords:
It always helps to have positive feedback from people who know you. Especially past landlords. Have this list handy.
NOW YOU'RE READY TO RENT YOUR APARTMENT!
Thanks for your time...Hope to see you soon!
