Apartment Rental Surprise - Bad Gift Idea - Make the Decision Together
Some renters want to make their partners smile this holiday season by going ahead and signing a lease or making a home purchase, but not so fast! The likelihood that a rush decision might come back to haunt you later is pretty good!
When it comes to doing something like renting a home for your family, you should make sure that your kin are onboard from the start! In addition, keep in mind that sometimes landlords are going to encourage you to sign a lease because that is their job and others have a few things they just aren't telling you about a place.
Ask yourself, what could be lurking behind a wall, in a cabinet, beyond a ceiling, or around you that might be an issue that your partner might have noticed if only you would have put the brakes on signing the lease?
So before you make any hasty decisions just to surprise a partner, do keep in mind, you won't be the only one living there.
Happy Holidays!
