New Carrollton, a city located in Prince George's County, is built on a former estate owned by Edward L. Mahoney, a prominent figure in the history of horse racing.Though Mahoney died in 1957, a developer named Albert W. Turner bought this land and created a suburb to continue the use of it. Eventually, Carrollton was born, named after the early Maryland settler Charles Carroll, and the city was added to two other smaller cities and called Carrollton by 1966. Today, New Carrollton remains a lovely place with a suburban feel.

Moving to a new city can be daunting, but if you take the right steps toward getting yourself just the right apartment for rent, the whole process can be a breeze. Want to know the first steps about moving to rental property in New Carrollton? Gather the right documents to bring. These documents include things like bank statements, pay stubs, proof of income, letters of employment, tax returns, and more. Anything that will prove you're going to be a good tenant and pay your rent on time. If you're worried about being able to prove your financial worthiness, you might want to consider getting a guarantor. A guarantor will financially guarantee your apartment, showing your landlord that someone will be there to cover the costs of the apartment should you ever not be able to.Speaking of money, you'll also need to put a deposit down to secure condo rentals -- or any other type of rental, for that matter. You're going to need to pay your first month's rent up front, as well as put down a security deposit. Some landlords will even ask you to pay last month's rent, too, so couple these costs with the cost of moving, and you're definitely going to want to save money before beginning the moving process.
