blog.by C21 Caribbean blog.datep 02/02/2023

If you are looking for a place to rent, whether to live, work, or start a business, it is important that you evaluate what you are willing to pay for what you are willing to receive. Here we go with some points to consider to choose in the best possible way a rental in the place of your interest.

 

Check the property, inspect every corner of the property, observe, touch. Check plugs, connections and light switches, door and window frames, locks and glass on the property. Also take care of checking the water faucets, they should not leak nor the pipes; and the water must have enough pressure to be able to bathe; as well as to wash dishes and clothes. If you have gas or air conditioning installations, also check them to make sure they are clean and in good condition.

 

Ask the owner or manager if they accept pets. Some owners do not accept pets or even children. Sometimes they also do not accept more than one or two people. Make sure you are clear about any age restrictions, as some properties only accept adults or even only accept single women or only men within the rental spaces.

 

The ubication. Calculate your transportation expenses and create routes of the places you are going, so you can know how much time you will spend from one point to another and the amount of money you will spend taking transportation or gasoline. It may be easier to find a property on the outskirts of the city or on the edge of the city, but does it really worth? It is also necessary to evaluate if there are nearby supermarkets, pharmacies, hospitals, schools, and shops in general to avoid moving too far and thus avoid wasting time and money.

 

Zones. The cities are divided by zones and each zone has its different types of land use and urbanization. Avoid living near garbage dumps, places with stagnant or contaminated water, and neighborhoods where there is no drinking water service or with difficult access to live, such as mountains or landslides or near the banks of rivers or seas.

 

The neighborhood. Look carefully at the house and listen. It is very important that you pay attention to details. Some neighbors are usually very enthusiastic and listen to loud music, some others go out to smoke in their patios, some more organize parties periodically or there may be a lot of people flow due to a business or establishment near your place of rent. If you don't want this kind of contact, look for another neighborhood that does meet your expectations.
