Renting a home, townhome or condo is a major undertaking. However, many want to treat it like shopping for new clothes - drop by the mall on your lunch hour, get excited about the suit in the window, put it on your credit card. What may work for your wardrobe is often a disaster when leasing a home.
The smart tenant makes a conscious decision and commitment to move, plans carefully, deals with credit issues first, allocates adequate time off from work to look, keeps emotions in check, and listens to the advice of a professional.
