2. Collect more information: How can we judge the quality of renting a house? Do more homework before renting a house! Before renting a house, look around your neighborhood, see who your neighbors are, or think about what is most important to you: do you prefer to live in a bustling downtown with high rent, or do you prefer to live in a quiet environment in the suburbs with relatively low rent, although it is far away? Craigslist and Gumtree are two good rental information websites abroad.
3. Physical networking: This means that apart from some information on the Internet, it is better to talk to friends around you about renting a house. For example, if you are lucky, you may be able to avoid some unnecessary troubles or find a more suitable apartment.
4. Traffic situation: How far is the apartment you want to rent from the school, or your internship, or your friends? Is the traffic convenient? Is there a direct subway? What is the name of the subway station? Can you spell?
Don't think these problems are troublesome, they are unavoidable problems, and knowing in advance will definitely avoid a lot of trouble.
5. Number of rooms: Do you live by yourself or share with your roommate? This is also very important when renting a house. If you want to live alone, you can consider single apartment studio, but if you want to share it with others, you need to see how many rooms there are in the apartment and what kind of people you will share it with.
Tip: Life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what kind of roommate you will meet.
6. Laundry room: Does the apartment you rented have a washing machine? If not, is there a laundry room in the apartment? Or is there a laundry nearby? What is the price? Lazy star, be sure to see it clearly ~
7. Furniture: If the house you rent does not contain furniture, then you need to calculate how much it will cost to buy furniture. If you only stay for a few months, or you don't need to buy too much for a year or two, basic furniture is enough: bed, mattress, study desk, wardrobe and chair. Alternatively, you can rent furniture or buy it in the second-hand market.
8. Landlord: No kidding, the landlord is also an important factor in renting a house. If you rent a house through an intermediary, ask the intermediary landlord, or you can go and see for yourself to see if the landlord is reliable. You need to know the landlord before you decide.
