Tips to take into account when choosing your first rental apartment
 


When renting an apartment it is important to be clear about what you want or expect from the property; in this, we can include location, physical space, and finally, most importantly the budget you have.

To acquire an apartment for rent it is important that you first think about where you would like it to be located, the advantages of getting an apartment in the area of your preference, and be clear if you can rent in the place you like with the budget you have, the ideal is to first be clear about your budget and then look for an apartment, this way you will not waste time.

Looking for a rental apartment to seek your independence and start building your own project is for brave people. It is exciting to live with more freedom and flexibility, and before doing so and to achieve this we give you some tips: 
  • Establish how much you can pay: set an amount that you can cancel according to your possibilities, it is advised that you do not pay more than 30% of your salary. It is important to make a list of monthly expenses including all the services (electricity, gas, telephone, etc.), food, and clothing, among other unexpected expenses. In order to stipulate the expenses.
  • Specify the location where you want to live: this can be done according to what you are willing to pay, you can also take into account the places you like, your work area, or friends' homes. Know the benefits that the property we have chosen gives us and if its location helps us to reduce expenses and time since we have everything at hand.
  • Analyze if you need a roommate: you can think about it since it will help you pay for the services that sometimes are higher than expected and it will also bring you some benefits, such as: meeting new people, sharing household chores, sharing food, avoiding loneliness, among others. 
  • Seek the support of a real estate broker: he/she can give you several options quickly and safely based on your needs and budget. Help you shorten the time to locate a property and streamline the contract paperwork of the same. In these times where we must be safe, seek advice from expert companies and agents that also include remote care among their services. 
  • Have a number of properties to choose from: this will give you the advantage of being able to choose among the best options, although we recommend a small choice of properties, between 3 and 4 options would be fine.
  • Take your time to make the best decision: do not make hasty decisions that you may regret later, take your time to decide on the right apartment, the important thing is that you feel comfortable with the price and the apartment.
  • Know all the details of the lease contract: apart from knowing very well all the clauses, it is important that you are also clear about the risks that you will run if you cancel the contract early.
  • Know your rights when renting a property: although the owner has a series of rights, the tenant also has them. One of them is to have the repair of the necessary elements to be able to inhabit the property, and in exchange for this, the tenant must leave the property as he/she got it. In Servmor we can give you the information you require in this regard.

Buen día de Dios, mi testimonio con respecto a la atención brindada por el señor Luis Aguilar, es que desde el momento que le contacte se mostró servicial, colaborador y con una disposición muy buena para ayudarme a encontrar una vivienda a mi gusto y presupuesto. Durante todo el proceso siempre fue muy amable y la verdad muy paciente, a pesar de que demoró por tramites del banco y ya tanto el vendedor como mi persona nos sentíamos agobiados, el sr. Luis siempre se mostró optimista y sereno, transmitiendo esto mismo a nosotros, por lo que considero que su intervención como intermediario fue muy acertada. En hora buena por tener una persona con esta disposición en su equipo de trabajo.
