FAQs
Ask whether pets are allowed, any size or breed restrictions, and cleaning expectations before move out. Disclose allergies or sensitivities early. If you need small modifications, like childproof latches, get written consent and agree on reinstatement responsibilities.
Prepare a list of questions about utilities, maintenance, lease terms, and neighborhood amenities. Bring a measuring tape for furniture planning and take photos/videos for later comparison. Check water pressure, electrical outlets, mobile reception, and natural light. View properties at different times if possible to assess noise levels and traffic patterns.

Consider implementing a cleaning roster, shared cleaning supplies fund, or hiring occasional deep cleaning. If issues persist, involve the landlord or main tenant as mediator. Sometimes different cultural or personal standards require compromise and clear communication.
Request written consent before drilling or painting. Confirm patching and color reinstatement at move out. Keep invoices for any professional work. Small changes can improve livability, but agreeing responsibilities now prevents friction when returning the unit later.
