What questions must I ask before renting a house?

Before renting a house, there are some important questions that need to be asked clearly to ensure that you can choose a house that suits you.

Once, I helped a friend who went to work directly without going to college to find a house in Chengdu. Her budget is limited, and she hopes to find a house with high cost performance. After some searching and comparison, we found an apartment in the center of Chengdu, which is also very close to his company.

Also online, I asked a lot of questions with the intermediary before deciding to go to the field to see the house. This apartment has excellent geographical location, convenient transportation and complete surrounding facilities. The interior decoration of the room is simple and comfortable, and the basic furniture and appliances are also complete. Most importantly, the rent is relatively low, which is in line with her budget.

Before signing the contract, I helped her read the contract terms carefully and answered her questions. Make sure she fully understands the terms of the contract and lease.

In the end, she decided to rent this apartment and was very satisfied after moving in. This story tells us that in the process of renting a house, it is very important to choose the right location, reasonable rent and read the contract carefully.

This is a photo of a house rented by a friend at that time after moving in.

The following are the questions I need to ask clearly before renting according to my own experience in renting a house. These problems must be clarified to reduce unnecessary troubles in the future.

I. Rent and expenses:

Rent: confirm the monthly rent amount and find out whether it includes utilities, property fees and other expenses. Deposit: ask how much deposit you need to pay and understand the conditions and procedures for returning the deposit. Intermediary fee: If you rent a house through an intermediary, ask whether you need to pay an intermediary fee and how much it costs. Second, the housing situation:

Housing area and pattern: understand the actual area and pattern of the house to ensure that it meets your living needs. Furniture facilities: confirm whether there are basic furniture facilities in the house, such as beds, sofas, tables and chairs. Maintenance: Ask the landlord or intermediary about the responsibility and arrangement of house maintenance. Three. Lease term and contract:

Lease term: confirm the length of the lease term and whether the lease can be renewed or terminated early. Terms of the contract: read the terms of the contract carefully, especially about breach of contract, maintenance responsibility, rent withdrawal and other terms. Four. Surrounding environment:

Convenient transportation: know about the surrounding public transportation and whether there are subways and bus stops. Living facilities: Ask if there are supermarkets, shopping malls, hospitals, schools and other living facilities nearby. Safety: Understand the surrounding security situation, whether it is safe and reliable. V. Property management:

Property management companies: Understand the service quality and management norms of property management companies. Property fee: inquire about the payment method and specific amount of property fee. Other problems of intransitive verbs:

Pet policy: If you have a pet, ask whether pets are allowed and the relevant regulations. Decoration regulations: understand the landlord's regulations on house decoration and the restrictions on rent withdrawal: ask about the process and precautions of rent withdrawal, such as the standard of deposit withdrawal. The above are some questions that I have summed up from my own experience, hoping to help you. Before renting a house, we must carefully verify these problems and make a written confirmation with the landlord or intermediary to avoid disputes in the future. I wish everyone can find a satisfactory house! If you have any other questions, you can also leave a message for discussion.
