Renting can be an attractive method for some people who are only going to be somewhere for a short time, or people who just aren’t ready to buy.  After locating a home, there will be a few steps to complete the process.

First

Find a realtor who can help you compile a strong application for rental.  Your application can be more attractive to landlords when you include extra information such as pay stubs and a credit report.

Second

Once your application is approved, you will then agree to leasing terms.  Make sure you understand all terms of the lease.  Too many times people just sign a lease and then something breaks and they want to know why the landlord will not complete the repairs.  It was in the lease.

Third

After moving in, be sure to take note of the current condition of the home.  This can save you money when it comes down to you getting your deposit back.
