Renter tips
continued from page 3B
the bill is legally responsi
ble.
Additionally, a residence
should be left in the same
or better condition than it
appeared when you first
moved in. According to the
Renter’s Handbook, you
should ask your landlord to
walk through the unit with
you a few weeks before
moving out. This way, you
can attempt to make repairs
he or she noticed rather
than facing fees.
Finally, it’s time to move
- into your new place.
If you sign a lease or
agreement, make sure you
understand the terms. Ac
cording to the Renter’s
Handbook, feel free to
make any changes to the
agreement as long as the
landlord or manager per
mits the new conditions.
Make sure you know
whether you or your land
lord is responsible for pro
viding utilities and what ad
ditional services are
included with your rent
payment. Also, if you are re
quired to pay a deposit or
other fees, understand what
exactly that covers.
Additionally, inspect the
unit to avoid future dis
putes about breaks, damage
or cleanliness. Lussier Dyer
stresses the importance of
checking everything. You
should keep a record of
what you observed while
inspecting the residence.
“Write everything down,
and give it to your manag
er," Lussier Dyer said. Also,
keep a copy for yourself.
You can obtain a complete
checklist for inventory and
condition in the Renter’s
Handbook.
Finally, once a new resi
dence is officially yours,
you're ready make it your
home.
The first thing you should
do is meet all your neigh
bors, Lussier Dyer said: “Es
tablish communication.”
He stresses that most
problems with neighbors
can easily be solved if you
feel comfortable con
fronting them about issues.
