You’re looking for an apartment or condo to share or rent with a roomie. Whether you’re a first-timer or an experienced apartment-hunter, it’s worth putting in the time to decide what’s crucial to you in where you live and to prepare your search technique accordingly. With that in mind, here are eight ideas to think about:

1. Make a list of your top housing concerns.

Do you need extra parking spaces? A large cooking area or linen closet? Believing through your needs ahead of time can help you discover an apartment or condo that satisfies those requirements, instead of one that just strikes your fancy at very first glance.

2. Check out the residential or commercial property.

In addition to analyzing the condition of the for-rent system, stroll through the home to see whether it appears to be well-maintained. Are any windows, actions or railings broken or hazardous? Do the gain access to doors open quickly and shut tightly?

3. Talk to the next-door neighbors.

If you’re major about a specific home, knock on a couple of doors and ask your potential next-door neighbors whether they’re pleased with the building’s features, management’s responsiveness to repair requirements and other issues of issue to you. Ask: Would you tell a pal to move into this structure?

4. Analyze the lease.

A lease is a legal responsibility to pay rent for a specified length of time, and every lease has variations on the conditions of tenancy. How much notification must you offer before moving at the end of the lease term? Can the lease be increased? Are pets permitted? What arrangements cover your down payment and end-of-lease cleaning costs? Negotiate or reassess leasing the apartment if the terms of the lease contract don’t match your requirements.

5. Consider security.

Does the building have managed access? If so, are the exterior security gates and doors closed? Does the building have a security service?

6. Inquire about shared facilities.

Does the structure have a pool? An entertainment or fitness room? Tennis courts? Laundry facilities? Who is permitted to use those facilities and during what hours? Exists an extra cost charged for usage of the centers? Where are the centers located in relation to your prospective house? Do you really want to live poolside or near the utility room?

7. Ask about utility costs.

Are electrical or gas energies included in the rent? Is there a single thermostat for the whole structure?

8. Take notes.

Before you move in, record the condition of your system and make note of any nonfunctioning doors or windows, leaking pipes, missing out on components, stained carpets and so on. When you ultimately move out, ask your landlord to initial a copy of your paperwork to avoid conflicts. Better yet, take images or make a video of the facilities prior to you bring in any of your furniture or belongings.
