Lease With Ready To Rent

Decide how much you can comfortably spend on rent and what features are most important - such as location, number of bedrooms, parking, or pet policies.

Prepare necessary paperwork, including proof of income, identification, references, and credit reports if required. Being organized helps speed up applications and increases your chances of approval.

Browse listings online and take notes & view photos to compare options and evaluate each place carefully.

Tour homes in person with your agent to get a true feel for what’s available.

Submit your lease offer promptly, ensuring terms allow room for negotiation with the landlord. Carefully review the lease - focusing on rent, utilities, responsibilities, and rules - and clarify any uncertainties before signing.

Sign the lease, satisfy any outstanding conditions, wrap up any last details, and get the keys to your new home. 

Set up utilities, renter’s insurance, and get familiar with your neighbourhood. Communicate with your landlord about any maintenance needs to ensure a smooth tenancy.
