Daughter is starting to look for a flat to rent, what sort of questions does she need to have answered to make a good judgement?
Not done this myself so no knowledge to pass on but thinking of things along the lines of what’s included in the rent – council tax, insurance possible – and what would be her responsibility, common area access, parking entitlement, length of notice etc. I guess these will all be in the contract but that may be too late to influence any decision.
Also is there any way of checking out potential landlords? Their history – good or bad – and how reliable are they in fixing stuff if things go wrong etc.
One last thing, any good resources to recommend. Only been flicking through RightMove so far, I guess getting on the books of local estate/letting agents, local papers and shop cards.
Thanks for any advice.
