| Rent House in Neighborhood Before Buying
|
|
Before buying a new house in a new area, first rent a home for a few months in the vicinity you're planning on living. Allow yourself a period of time to see how the area is for you. See what's around the neighborhood if it really is the area for you and your family.

| Apartment Hunting Tips
|
|
When I search for a new apartment I keep the following things I want in mind: Opt for no corner units as you are heating and cooling 2 walls instead of one and there is no wind-break on corner units. Try choosing a unit in the middle of the building.

| Free Carpet Cleaning Wth Your Apartment Lease Renewal
|
|
I live in an apartment. My neighbor told me that when a person renews their lease, they can have their carpets shampooed for free. I called the office Tuesday morning and they sent someone the same afternoon. I have lived here for over 4 years and they sure don't advertise this!

|
|
I'm looking to move into a new apartment. The problem (aside from not knowing neighborhoods and wanting to get a dog), I'm not sure how to find out how much I can afford for rent. I've been told to take my either net or gross income for a month and subtract my bills, etc. for a month from it.

If you are able to choose, (and physically able) get an apartment higher than the main floor. This works well for me for two reasons. 1) I have barely had to turn up my heat this winter, my thermostat is set at 50 and my home is usually over 70...
