Not every landlord or management company requires an apartment walk through when you move into a new apartment unit, but it’s generally in your best interest to do so. If one is not offered, request a walk through before you move in. Below are some apartment walk through tips to ensure you are happy with your new apartment before you move in.
- Check to see that all locks and door knobs are secure and not wobbly and that you will be supplied with keys for each lock.
- Try all windows and doors to make sure they open and close properly.
- Look around the toilets and under and around every sink to make sure that nothing is damp or dripping.
- Test each appliance to make sure it works properly.
