From attending inspections promptly to being prepared with all necessary paperwork, these simple steps can make a big difference in your search for a new home.

1. 1. 1. Attend rental property inspections as soon as possible, and if none are listed, contact the property manager to arrange a viewing.
      2. Prepare all necessary paperwork, including completed application forms, identification, proof of income, previous utility accounts, and references.
      3. Make a good impression by being friendly, polite, and presentable.
      4. Discuss how your situation would be a good fit for the property with the property manager/leasing agent.
      5. Be aware of any past breaches or issues that may show up in tenant checks, and be transparent about them in your application.
      6. Disclose any past rental issues with the property manager, as it’s better they hear about any issues from you first.

      8. Be responsive to calls or emails from the property manager, and withdraw any other rental applications quickly if you are approved for a property.
      9. Have your bond and rent ready in advance.
