2. Ask about the rent and deposit for one month.
3. Ask if the house is still for rent, or if there are any plans to sell it in the near future.
What should I pay attention to when renting a house?
1, anti-theft function of house doors and windows.
It should be noted here that some old-fashioned security doors have no anti-theft function at all. For example, if steel pipes are welded, owners can be asked to replace new security doors, so as to ensure safety. It also depends on whether the windows are sealed, especially the tenants who rent the first and second floors. They must carefully check whether the windows can be closed, whether the bolts can be inserted, and whether the fence is welded or damaged. If necessary, please ask the owner to reinforce it together to prevent future troubles.
2. Normal operation of fixed facilities.
Such as toilets, water heaters, stoves, range hoods, air conditioners, etc. Try it while looking at the house. If it works normally, there should be no big problem in careful maintenance in the future.
3. Family status of circuits and waterways.
This note is especially applicable to those buildings with relatively old construction years, such as some buildings with four or five floors. At that time, elevators were installed in buildings with more than five floors, so there were many five-story buildings around the 1980 s. Due to the long-term use of water supply and drainage pipelines, the design power of transmission lines is low, and the lines are aging, and there are often phenomena such as frequent blockage of sewers, insufficient water pressure of water supply, failure of high-power household appliances to turn on normally, and circuit tripping. If this happens, pay attention to the smooth flow of water and water when looking at the house, and choose the first floor and the top floor. Generally, the top floor is affected by insufficient water pressure, which will lead to uncomfortable bath water. If the water flow is not smooth, the first floor will often return to the water, so be sure to pay attention.
4. Drainage function of sewer.
Be sure to look carefully when looking at the house, because sometimes some hidden dangers are invisible, such as sewers. The pipes in the old house are relatively thin, so they are not blocked when looking at the house, but they are easily blocked when used.
5, the normal opening of household appliances.
It is not necessarily a good thing to have a complete set of home appliances when looking at the house. Don't be fooled by superficial phenomena. Because under normal circumstances, the landlord will deliberately put together some electrical appliances to raise the rent price, and most of these appliances come from flea markets and second-hand dealers, so they can't be guaranteed when they are used, such as aging equipment, refrigerators three times a day, and buzzing air conditioners. Maybe you haven't used it yet. Therefore, when looking at the house, it is essential to check the use of electrical appliances, especially the refrigerator air conditioner.
