Renting Right In Today’s Economy

Simple answer. “No question is so difficult to answer as that to which the answer is obvious.”

George Bernard Shaw quote.  

The tenant knows the right answer to renting right, which appears to be monumental but is no secret really.

Looking and finding what is best for the individual tenant can be as varied as the individual; let’s look at some ways to handle this dilemma of renting right.

The naive tenant will have a barrage of new experiences, good and bad. The tenant can learn from them for future events and they can be priceless. These events stored are top know how as they may happen again. Storing in one’s memory from my experience can be fleeting. I think to just remember is not a sure fire way as the thought will fly out of ones mind. This is not record keeping as some may think.

The cautious renter will learn from these experiences to save notes some receipts and some other documents put in a drawer and rental agreement in files somewhere else later to have some or all disappear or be moved somewhere they cannot be found.

Adding addendums. The experienced smart renter learning from experiences will add addendums to their rental agreements. They can see into the future where they may get a dog or get married and plan for events or remodeling.

Renting right takes having the right rental agreement, learning knowhow from others, discussions with manager and really important keeping a journal.

Keeping a journal, we feel is the ultra-important ticket to couple with the rental agreement. Having a journal gives a tenant the edge on their renting.

We are all busy and taking time to go to a renting court to learn more about renting can be a valuable too                                                      

Renting is organic in many aspects and this is why journaling is so important especially today. See our ebook as to the things that can happen with renting.

Tracking and monitoring is extra rental protection. Keeping notes on all aspects of renting. Track children, pets, roommates and the mger.  24/7 shows record keeping for all to see as needed.

Teaching your children about journaling and how records are kept brings a new level of responsibility to them and they can be involved too.

When renting if you damage anything, you are at the mercy of the manager who can charge accordingly.

A Tenant Will Put Off Planning The Have To Move and Learn It’s Easy Can Do with The Help of Expert Approved Knowhow

Enrolling yourself in a moving plan now to obtain some stunning results when you less expected it in your move.

Jump Into Your Move Planning as An Exciting Adventure

To most tenants moving is a dreaded event. All your things have been accumulating for years in some cases. There’s the fragile glass, mountains of books, all your clothes, shoes and accessories, kitchen ware and bathroom items. If you have kids and pets there will toys and pet things.

Let’s look at having fun with renting to discover more about renting better and avoid moving mistakes.  

Keep engaged in your plan! Embrace this learning experience with a mindfully good attitude to carry you thru. Some tips are below:

1.  Plan for the weather by having closed boxes accordingly.

2.  Assess how many boxes you will need.

3.  Use the right size of boxes.

4.  Get black markers to mark the boxes, even color code the boxes.

5.  Get a bundle of plain new paper to wrap things, get two bundles, you can always take one back.

6.  Put heavier items at the bottom of boxes.

7.  Don’t leave any empty spaces in boxes.

8.  Any expert approved rental move can be a fun mindful experience when one makes it an adventure.

9.   Avoid mixing items from different rooms in the same boxes.

10.  Label each box with room it goes to.

11.  Tape boxes well.

12.  Purge things that are not useful to you

13.  Check heaviness of box.

14.  Get list of movers.

15.  Pack your overnight.

16.  Take photo of electronics connections to reconnect them.

Planning as much ahead of time will be best. Get all your supplies as boxes, tape cutter, scissors and markers. A tablet and pens to track things.

Disposing of unwanted items. Give to friends, donations, sell online and make some extra cash to even pay for your move. If you plan on getting a donation center to pickup plan enough in advance as they don’t always take certain things.

Calculating how may boxes you will want. Finding a kennel to keep

your pets till you’ve moved. Or a sitter for your kids.

Hire a helper to box up and set aside.

Photos say it all. Before and after photos show condition of the place you rented and one you are moving into.  I ‘d make a complete album of detailed photos of everything.

Renting Over Buying A Home

Now why would someone rent over buying a home? Let’s stop and take a look this dynamic, as most of us think we all want a home we own. Pride in owning a piece of property there can be nothing like it. Images of apple pie cooking and a door mat that says welcome. Creating your home, the way you want it to be and adding decorating with your colors evokes mind warming experiences. Having a garden and a garage. Even a white picket fence. A dog to run around in the yard. Creating a family.

Let’s take a reality check as this is 2022. Seeking by statistics, buying over renting is not everyone’s dream opens up a whole new door or doors for us.

New American tagline: Buying a home is the American dream is not the dream of everyone with our new life styles.

Taking a deeper cut we see older renters are driving up the renting demand as 30% of renters are aged 55+. We understand that immigrants have a higher propensity to rent and for longer periods.

Renting allows one to spread their funds over different types of investments rather than tie up their funds up in one purchase.

Many rent rather than buy due to individual circumstances. Others may want the flexibility renting offers and the freedom to move on from a job or city without the burden of having to sell.

What causes people to rent more so than buying?

Student debt, cost of housing are some issues many are faced with these days to delay purchasing a home.

Renting helps avoid some major expenses as rental insurance. Look at your district state and federal to learn what the costs are as each area can be different. Rental insurance costs are lower and I feel easier to buy.

Also, as a renter, you won't have to worry about your home or apartment depreciating due to factors like crime, unemployment rates, and new housing developments.

Renters can have amenities as gym in rec area, a pool, landscape is kept, no real estate taxes, no down payment and the flexibility to downsize. Retirees want less costly place to manage.

One issue, if the home owner has invested a lot of money in the home one may not be able to sell to cover cost. Lower utility costs for less size apartments are to be considered as well.

44.1 million households rent in USA and most rentals are individually owned much to my surprise.

A rental is probably owner managed them, which says the renter is probably managed by a ‘self-taught’ manger which could be a disaster for renters. A renter should study renting ‘laws’ or rules which we discovered can be complex. This will be a great benefit.

Avoid Eviction, Move Fast Into Renting Survival Mode ASAP

Wrongful eviction for those that don’ t know, is a landlord that will evict you without reason and they can try. The 3 day notice / or moveout letter says you have to leave or else you fight it and prove you have a right to stay.  Your stress is huge and you go into rental survival mode because there are only few days to reply to avoid eviction.

You have done nothing wrong.

You contact the manager / owner to tell them it’s not true, that your rent is paid. No reply from them. You keep calling and no answer. You are left with no choice but to contact The attorney on file put into the journal.

Next step, as you are left with no resolve but to contact the attorney you found when you first started the journal.  In discussions the attorney who asks for your proof or evidence

All are in journal files. Agreeing with them you hand over a big hunk of cash which you are short on now. Your are short on cash but have to hire them as you are left with no choice.  Facing a judge, you know nothing about, nor the legal system you know nothing about is dilapidating to you. This is something you wish you had known more about.

Avoiding a blood pressure raising event, you go into Rental Survival mode which is getting an instant printout of your complete journaling records for past 6 months showing you have paid, taken care of place, all is 100% ok. Giving all documents to your attorney.

Had you not had these files about your time at the rental you probably had very little would leave you in a vast legal system afloat at sea without a life saver and judges don’t rule off a story hardly at all I think and from what I know.

Now we are not attorneys and this is only our experiences and contact legal services and ask then they more than likely say.

Still the manager doesn’t contact you. It’s off to court you go. The attorney meets you in the court room to represent you. Going it alone without legal counsel can be risky.

The manager is a no show in court.  The judge finds in your favor. Wow!

All that time and effort and money. You had a project at work that was left on the back burner you were working on for your team. Leaving you as stunned as when you started.

Come to find out the manager/landlord was on holiday and paid you for your expenses, time off work and legal fee which was a great thing. They deleted any negative marks on your record and sent you a letter confirming all this for peace of mind and just to put in your files.

Better Landlord Communications and Renting Right

Professional landlord communications are best practice to renting right and peace at home

Renting a home is basically a place to live temporarily, sometimes for 20 years temporarily. Home is where the heart is we know and we need a roof over our heads! Costs are going up and things are changing.

We need to inspect renting today with a deeper view, as we have never seen the likes of renting like it is today.

Developing landlord communications is an ardent task while learning to rent right is a truly our goal. Thinking ahead, we will probably want better landlord communications as we may stay longer in our rentals and creating more of a home environment, as the place is becoming more of our forever home.

We will look at rentals with a closer eye for what suits us. Are we planning on getting a dog? Are we traveling for a job and need to sublet? Getting married? They should outline all in our rental agreement and addendum.

We may want to looking for more security and how we can make our space more livable and long lasting.

Stand back and look at your place. If you are thinking about moving, ask yourself if you can make better a rental choice or is the place enough. Is your manager open to work with you to fix the place to what you want?

What are you looking for in the future? By questioning everything, you can save lots of time and effort.

More landlord communications might get you a better stay. Communicating your good intentions and building trust are very important.  

Since things are radically changing in the renting world today, if you rent, why not play a better renter’s game keeping your living space for safe, peaceful living and avoid eviction. Understand how to play, starting now by monitoring and track events your rental home, inside and outside, as these could be invaluable assets to track for you to avoid eviction.

Learn the legal landlords and home renting lingo to fit in with the players. A simple few words as know what square feet are or how big a 12x12 room size is or the names of locks that are on your doors. Understanding about plumbing will help. By using words, the landlord and lawyers use could go miles in you, leveling the playing field for you and work in keeping a peaceful environment.

Landlords talk the talk and have the assets. Lawyers have the lingo to get you positive results, so why not you, as the renter, do the same.

Most landlords will be interested in a tenant’s ability to pay rent and a rental history, if their property will be well maintained and whether the tenant is trustworthy. First you want to put together a great resume, a video about you. What wonderful things you are bringing to the rental and the community. A report from old manager about your stay.

An example of about your information keep on file.

Most landlords will be interested in potential tenants’ ability to pay rent and a rental history, if their property will be well maintained and whether the tenant is trustworthy.

Take time to do well planned rental resume and keep it updated:

. Personal data (name. gender, age, number of children)

. Number of pets

. Number of vehicles

. Employment status and details

. Education level

. Salary

. Rental history

. Contact details

. Pet resume if you have

. Identification

. References both profession and personal

. Rental history

. Recent evidence of regular earnings, a good track record and a level of savings will be a big plus for increasing your chances of being successful at getting the rental.

Bring a copy of this to unit review

I would always suggest to my marketing clients to get a few acting lessons on how to deliver a message and sell yourself which would be good for a rental resume. Even video tape yourself and watch yourself. Do you need to deliver louder, softer, sweeter?  Stand-up straight, be friendlier and have a smart renter look?

Maybe sending thank you card and offer if they want anything else to contact you as you really want the rental as its perfect for you and when you should contact then or that you will contact them in a few days.

Think about it, if you landed in legal trouble with your rental, getting an attorney fast is of utmost importance because legal trouble with a rental is more than likely time sensitive.

Take Gino, served a 3-day notice when he had paid the rent.  Who knew this would or could ever happen?  In shock, Gino had to respond which meant showing up in court illegal or legal and the owner was not responding.  Stressed  he hired an attorney and which he put cost on credit card as he had no choice as this was his credit, his job, future renting and even a marriage.  

Gino added legal counsel in his Tenants Journal along with his other details.  He had been tracking everything and gave the attorney all the documents.  It could have been a real mess.

Takes a few days to even find proper legal counsel and secure one and Gino had one already lined up.  Gino who was prepared and more than he knew!

Served a 3-day notice when he had paid the rent – who knew this would or could ever happen?  In shock, Gino had to respond which meant showing up in court illegal or legal and the owner was not responding. Stressed  he hired an attorney and which he put cost on credit card as he had no choice.

Gino was tracking his rental for month via the Tenants Journal and had well documented receipts and correspondence tracking all rental happenings gave him of showing all records – the good, the bad and the ugly – even showing nothing happening gave the attorneys good evidence to stop the illegal eviction.

FREE RENTALS AGREEMENTS PACK A PUNCH

Rentals No Cost Agreement VS Landlords Agreement

Our Free Rental Agreement outlines the arrangement between a landlord and a tenant regarding occupying a property for a designated time period.

No matter how long or short the stay, getting a rental agreement signed by both parties is a must do. Certain stipulations and disclosures created within the document, providing legal protection for the lessor and lessee in the event they do not keep the agreement up to the written terms. Both sides of the agreement must sign off of the contract to activate the terms of the agreement.

The owner of the property usually furnishes the agreement and fits the owners’ desires. They perform an evaluation to certify the income and background information is sufficient for the needs of the lessor. TenantsJournal.com offers a free, generic form.

A free form doesn’t outline specific requirements for the renter. It’s ready in the current state for the agreement to be signed and going over it before one will sign is really a must do. The tenant may have a specific requirements to incorporate to the agreement as repairs, neighbors, contact for emergencies, about pets, roommates. Length of time for a visitor, parking, paying rent and others. It’s good to outline a list before you look for a new place to stay, which will give you to a greater understanding of renting what you need to do. Thinking about the future too, as what can come up? As details about if an emergency comes up.

This is a contract and covers names of tenant/s, amount of rent, payment date, security deposit, paying, late fees for payments, rent increases, how long the agreement is for your stay no matter a condo, house, apartment, tiny house, couch, shared apartment or where ever you stay.          

An addendum can add additional provisions or modifications to a lease agreement after the lease is signed, instead of creating a new lease agreement. Most lease agreement will state that an addendum is allowed and it important to check. It will state that the addendum is allowed and is legally binding.

Important rental lease clauses to include are:

. Rent Liability

. Severalty clause

. Access to premise

. Use of Premise

. Holding over

. Sublet Rules

. Disturbance Clause

. Lessee to Maintain

More details to be aware of is:

Utility responsibly needs to be detailed out to every point. Say you are on shared water meter. Who pays what?

So we ask for all to check out tenants’ laws for your state and the agreement complies with the state’s laws as is it even permitted billing the tenants for shared utility. Being specific about this as saying bill for electricity is for 50.00 and tenant pays overages.
