It is never a good idea to walk into an apartment unit and assume that it is going to be perfect for you. Even if it looks good on the outside, you need to ask questions and look around to ensure that you know as much as possible and that you will be able to make some smart decisions before you choose to move in. Before you even take a tour of the unit, you should make out a list of important questions that you would like to ask the property manager or the landlord.
There are a lot of questions that you can ask. Maybe you will ask some questions about the application process and how much the fee will be. You can ask about how long the process will take to go over the application, whether they will reach out to you, whether or not you get the unit and more. This can give you a good idea on whether you want to even start the process of filling out that application or not.
Next, you need to ask for some of the specifics on the unit that you are looking at. Ask what the availability is for that apartment and whether the landlord has any planned work on it before you move in. You should walk through it with them before you move in, taking pictures, so that you can show proof of how things were and you won’t get in trouble if something is not perfect when you leave.
You can also ask some questions about the lease. Look over the lease and discuss how much notice you need to give if you decide to move out, how you can get the security deposit back, and how the rent and other payments should be handled with the landlord. Check to see how you would lodge a noise complaint and how to file a repair request if something does go wrong with the apartment while you live there.
