Renting in the United States

In order to find an apartment, you can surf the web, look in some of the free apartment finder, inquire through a real estate agent, or read classified advertisements.

Here are things to consider in looking for an apartment:

• Consider the convenience of the location to the 91Pron¹ú²ú campus and to neighborhood stores.
• Look at the neighborhood; will you feel comfortable?
• Look carefully at the rental property.
• Is it in good repair?
• Does it have an air conditioner? (Summers are hot in this area)
• Is it clean and are the buildings and grounds well-tended?
• Are pets permitted?
• Ask whether there are laundry machines to wash and dry your clothes.
• If not, is there a commercial laundromat nearby?
• If you choose to rent a unit, you may ask to speak to references - that is, people who have lived there before and would be willing to recommend the place.
• It is customary for a manager or landlord to require a deposit equivalent to one month's rent.
• This deposit will secure the place until you move in, and can be used to pay for any damage you have caused when you leave.
• If you have caused no damage to the property, the deposit will be returned to you.
• You will be asked to sign a rental contact. Read your lease carefully and make sure you understand it before signing.
