Sometimes, you need to move a long distance and it is hard to have a chance to look at the apartment unit in-person the way that you would like. But if it is at all possible, do not rely on just the online pictures that the landlord or the property manager is going to provide. You need to explore all of the different options and see them in-person to make sure they are going to be a good place to call your new home.
When you decide to move into a new apartment, it is so important to look at all of your options and see a few different properties, if they are available, in the preferred location before you decide on the final one. When you are viewing some of the potential options for your new home, some things to consider are:
# Look at the overall condition of the property to make sure it is updated and in good shape. You want to look around for some signs of water damage, like dark spots on the walls and ceilings, musty smells, and mold patches, issues with the upkeep like broken items and leaking faucets to name a few, HVAC issues that could leave you without the utilities that you want, and any other potential problems that will come up.
# Check for infestation from pests, especially rats and mice. Any infestation can be a problem if you are not careful about it, so look around and make sure that you do not see any obvious signs of it ahead of time.
# Consider some of the security issues that may be present within the building. This could be the fire escapes, fire alarms, whether there is a security system for the building and how easy it would be for someone to break into the property and cause some problems for you.
