Apartment Tips

Asking how the pricing of your apartment is?

The reason of this is some are charged by the BED, PERSON or UNIT. As I have being doing research I have found that some apartments are charged this way. This may pose a problem if you are looking at a two bedroom. Some apartments will offer roommate matching if you do not have a roommate. Keep in mind that the person that may end up as your roommate may not be a student.

Move-in Day

As you may have done with your undergrad housing with  your RA a walk through is something to consider upon moving in to ensure you do not get charged for something you did not do.

Renters Insurance

Renters Insurance, also known as tenant insurance, is to help cover unexcepted events such as break-ins and if visitors become injured at your property. Each company policy is different with what is covered. On average the amount monthly is $5-$20. You may want to reach out to your auto insurance company. Some apartment complexes may offer as well and it can be included in your rent.

Utilities

Budget Billing

I suggest to students to contact their utility companies upon finding out where you will be staying and ask about budget billing. If they do have budget billing I would encourage this.

This will allow you to ensure your monthly budget will be maintained. At the end of the year you will have what they call a settle up month. Sometimes you may have a credit or a slightly bigger payment to bring the account current, but this does help on the month to month. If you have any questions feel free to contact LaTonya Hudson, M.S about this at IUSM Student Financial Aid Office.

The are responsible for structural maintenance of the lease. Also, the landlord is to make sure that the agreement is not broken and if so to evict the tenants.
  • Application– this is a document that potential tenant completes. This is to be completed to see if you are eligible to meet the requirements for the apartments. Normally this would require you to submit basic information such as employment, social security number, previous address, bank statements, pay stubs and references.

The secondary person is equally responsible for upholding the terms of the lease as backup if the other person is not. 
  • Guarantor– Somewhat like a co-signer  a guarantor is a third party who “guarantees” they will pay for the rent and fulfill the financial obligations of the renter. This person however is not listed on the lease and can’t live in the apartment.
