It's important to know what your responsibilities are, so you can avoid any conflicts with your landlord or neighbors that could potentially lead to eviction or legal action. Familiarize yourself with the responsibilities that landlords have for their tenants, as well as your obligations regarding your tenancy agreement. Damages Incurred During Relocation
While moving can be stressful in itself, being charged with damages to your old home or apartment is even more stressful. As a tenant, you are responsible for any damages incurred during your stay. Reporting Problems If you're renting an apartment, call maintenance and ask them to look at any problems; if you're buying a house, it might be worthwhile to put in a new washer yourself (but make sure not to break anything). Taking Care Of The Property When you rent a home, apartment, or townhouse, it is your responsibility to care for it. You're obligated to pay for repairs for damage you cause and for maintenance of issues that arise over time. If something breaks in your rented space (and it's not because of normal wear and tear), check with your landlord before you try to fix anything. Taking care of these things will prevent conflict down the road. Give Access To Your Home For Repairs As a tenant, you are typically responsible for notifying your landlord of needed repairs on time. Remember that you have rights as a renter, and if your landlord does not take care of these issues, or does not return your calls promptly (or at all), reach out to legal resources such as Small Claims Court. Tenants also need to be mindful of their lease terms and ensure they are only doing what is allowed per their agreement with their landlords. Wrapping Up When you're a tenant, there are many things you're not responsible for. But when it comes to your living space, there are some things you should be concerned about and take care of. A clean and safe home is something that anyone appreciates, so make sure to keep up with your responsibilities as a tenant.
