Before signing a rental agreement, make a written checklist for the specific unit you are considering. Confirm the exact address and unit, rent, due date, fees, deposit, lease start and end dates, utility responsibilities, maintenance contact, move-in condition process, and every addendum you are asked to sign. Keep a copy of the final signed agreement and any written answers you received.
