How to rent. You are new to New York, or you just want to rent your own apartment in Manhattan (or Bronx, or Brooklyn, or Queens). Where to begin? Allow me to provide you with information about requirements to the tenants. This is what you should have to qualify. First of all it is your source of income (your future landlord wants to know how you will pay for the rent, what is your income source ). If you are employed, your yearly income should be forty times of your monthly rent ( let say your apartment rent is $1,500 a month, so your yearly income should be at about $60,000.00 a year before the tax ). And what if you are a student or just begin your professional carrier and earn less then number mentioned above. Don’t worry, the solution is a guarantor, or in other words a person who will guaranty the monthly rent payments on behalf of the tenant (your parents, relatives, good friends – they do anything to help you). Your guarantor should have yearly income eighty times of monthly rent.
Also you should have good credit history, many internet companies provide you with information about your credit score for free. Once your application is approved by the landlord and lease is ready, you have come up with the payment – usually it is first month rent and one month rent as a security deposit. What is your situation? Don't hesitate to call us with your questions.
