Moving to Holiday City-Berkeley

So, you've decided you're renting an apartment in Holiday City-Berkeley. The first step you'll want to take, as with any month to month or lease apartment, is to apply to rent. A landlord is going to want to know who you are and what you do before he rents to you. So, the smart thing to do is prepare your financial documents. These documents include bank statements, tax returns, pay stubs, proof of income, letters of employment and more. Also, be prepared because the management company will most likely do a credit check. You also might want to arrange for some letters of reference to further attest to your character and qualifications. Consider asking colleagues, good friends, and former landlords. They can all speak to how awesome a person you are! Next, make sure you're ready to put down a deposit on the apartment. Whether it's a studio or 2 bedroom apartment for rent, you're going to have to put some money down to secure it. deposits usually amount to two months' rent upfront, but they can be as much as three months', so save your pennies and be ready to pay up as soon as you find the place you love.
