I want to share some tips for those who are moving to their new rental apartment. These tips are not like routine tips you find in the some websites. These tips are different and will work if they are implemented with prior plan and preparation. The script for these tips is prepared by me when I am moving to my current Miami apartment. I have executed them and found positive results. So I thought I would share them for those are about to move to their new apartments. Here they are:
- Get a head start. Save time-and stand out in a crowd of applicants-by bringing a copy of your credit report and a completed rental application to your interviews.
- Don't miss the bus. As with job interviews, first impressions are often lasting. So it is better to arrive early than to be late for an interview appointment.
- Let there be light. Visit prospective apartments in the daytime so you will able to know how much natural light to expect and any problems will be easier to see. Walk through the neighborhood at night to see outdoor lighting and street culture.
- Measure up. Record the sizes of your big-ticket furniture, and bring a tape measure with you to measure apartment doors. If you find a great apartment but it's too small for all of your stuff, decide in advance what you'd be willing to sell, store or get rid of so you aren't held back by indecision.
- Sell yourself. Apartment searches aren't really the best time for club-kid duds, dark-angel Goth or bed head casual. You'll be meeting prospective landlords, so however you dress, you want to give the impression that you'll be on time with your rent and you'll be a good caretaker of the apartment.
