The four questions that decide whether a rental is a good deal, and the clauses worth arguing about.

Rent agreement, deposit and brokerage — what tenants must ask first

Most rental disputes come from things nobody discussed at the viewing.

Deposit

Two months is normal in most cities. Get the refund timeline written into the agreement, not agreed verbally.

Maintenance

Ask what the monthly society maintenance is and who pays it. It is often left out of the quoted rent.

Notice period

One month either way is standard. Make sure it is symmetric.
