Before you get to the lease agreement, you first need to fill out a rental application. Print the form and fill it out for step one. Turn the application into a teacher. If it is correct, they will approve you to move onto the lease agreement.
After you have been approved to rent an apartment, the rental company will hand you a lease agreement. THIS IS A CONTRACT. The contact explains the expectations for you if you move into the rental property.
Before reading and signing this CONTRACT, read the "nine things you should know before signing a lease agreement."
Then print, hole punch and fill out a pre-existing damage sheet. It is very important to record anything that is not in perfect condition in your new apartment/house. Practice by filling out as much as you can using CT an example.
Print, hole punch, and staple the lease agreement. Then you need to:
- Read and highlight the important parts for every section of the lease agreement
- Helpful hint: The language in this is hard to understand ("legal jargon"). Find a teacher or another adult to help you with what you do not know.
- Initial and sign the necessary pages
- Turn your lease agreement into a teacher.
