You’ve come upon the perfect apartment in Noblesville, and now you just need to sign a rental agreement! But wait a moment. Before you sign, be sure you know what you’re signing up for. After all, you’ll enjoy living in your apartment more if you have to do. So before signing any papers, come prepared with these questions to ask when leasing an apartment in Noblesville.

How Do I Pay Rent And Are There Fees If I Pay Late?

Good Noblesville apartments have more than one payment method to make paying rent as simple as possible, including electronic and auto-pay options. Ask your new community what methods they offer and how each one works. You can also inquire about if you’ll be charged any convenience fees for paperless payments.

You also should know your community’s overdue payment policy. Many leasing offices have a one or two day grace period and then a late fee that increases with time. Ask when payment is due and who to talk to if you experience a hardship that will interfere with paying your rent by the due date.

What Is The Guest Policy For Your Noblesville Apartment And Amenities?

If you want to host loved ones for more than a few days, you should learn your community’s guest policy. Most leases prohibit guests from staying with you beyond 3 days without clearing it with the property manager. There are also guest policies for using community amenities like the fitness center or swimming pool. If you’d like to bring your training buddy to try the treadmills, find out if guests are allowed first. Or, if your child wants a pool party, ask how many guests are allowed and their procedures and policies.
 

What Is The Pet Policy?

You should also ask about fees and regulations for walking and cleaning up poop. The best pet-friendly Noblesville apartments have things like bags with trash cans for cleaning up after them and dog runs or parks for [[exercising dogs|socialization|exercize].

Lots of apartment complexes implement parking policies to keep things fair for everyone. They may issue Resident parking permits, assign parking spaces, limit how many vehicles you can keep on the property, and enforce designated guest parking. Many apartment communities in Noblesville provide shelterd parking for a fee. Learn about your parking options and the parking policies before moving in with your extra car or inviting friends over.
 

How Do I Make Maintenance Requests, And How Do They Get Into My Apartment?

All apartments need repairs at some point. Before moving in, ask how maintenance requests work there. Ask how to submit a request, when to expect a response, and if there is a 24/7 emergency line.

You should also find out how the maintenance team will enter your apartment. Discuss if they will warn you before entering and if they will leave a sign that they were there when they leave. You may not own your apartment, you should always expect efficient communication with your maintenance team about submitted and completed service requests.
