6 Some tips There s a lot to think about when looking for a new home. Here are some tips from us on how to succeed with the search: Write a clear and personal presentation of yourself in your advert. Describe your situation and your strengths. Attaching a picture to the advert is a huge plus. Use a spell checking tool and proofread what you write. Search actively! Monitor new adverts that are published and quickly contact the landlord when something that piques your interest appears. Be prepared before you arrive at a viewing. Make sure to obtain answers to the questions you might have and to give the landlord a positive image of yourself. One of the main concerns of a landlord is usually that you have a stable economy and good references. Some might consider a tenant that is receiving welfare benefits while others do not want to sublet to university students. Good references from earlier landlords will always be a great help to you. Some landlords want a deposit. It could be one, two or several monthly rents. The deposit is a security buffer for the landlord in case there is any damage to the property during the lease. Never pay a deposit or advance rent until you have seen the property, met the landlord and have a signed contract! CHECKLIST Prepare and market yourself. Search actively. Has the landlord received permission for the sublet? Is the rent reasonable? Don t just negotiate about the price, look at the big picture: heating, electricity, garage, extensions... Specify the responsibilities of the landlord. Specify your own responsibilities. Demand a written leasing agreement. Don t pay any deposit or advance rent until you have seen the property and signed the contract. Fill in an inventory list if the property is sublet furnished. Obtain a home insurance. Check the termination rules. Some reasons for terminating in advance: Breach of contract Unpaid rent Mishandling the property or furnishings Serious disturbances
