Whether you’re a millennial looking to move out of your parents’ house, a professional seeking adventure in a new city, or a baby boomer planning to downsize and work a few more years or travel, going through the rental process for the first time can be daunting.
The process often begins with a search for the perfect apartment with the right mix of amenities, price range, and access to transportation, shopping and entertainment. Then, once you’ve found your dream apartment, it’s time to sign on the dotted line. And unlike other terms and conditions that you may just skim, it’s important that you go over every section of the lease agreement before committing your signature.
Not sure where to start or what questions to ask? Here are five things to keep in mind before signing your lease:
Note the length of your lease and notice periods
Most lease agreements are for 12 months, to be renewed on an annual basis, but every property owner has their own standard and renewal policy. For example, some independent rental owners may offer a six-month lease or even a month-to-month lease for first-time renters. The cost per month will often be higher, but if your career or a relationship is in flux and you want the flexibility to move with little notice, it may be worth it.
