As summer rolls in, many renters find themselves at a crossroads, stay in their current rental, look for something new, or upgrade to a space that better fits their needs. With seasonal lease cycles in full swing, now’s the perfect time to evaluate your options and plan ahead.
Here’s a simple guide from A.W. Properties LLC to help you make the best decision for your future.
Consider Your Current Lifestyle Needs
Ask yourself: Does your current space still meet your daily needs? If you’re now working from home, expecting a child, or just craving more room or amenities, it may be time to consider a larger or more modern rental.
On the other hand, if your home still fits your lifestyle and budget, renewing might be the smartest move.
Check Renewal Terms Early
If your lease is up this summer, don’t wait until the last minute to make a decision. Landlords typically need 30 to 60 days’ notice, and waiting could limit your options. Reach out early to discuss renewal terms, you may even lock in a better rate.
Look Into Upgrade Opportunities
At A.W. Properties LLC, we occasionally have upgraded units or different locations available. If you love renting with us but want a new layout or more space, ask about other properties; we may have something that fits even better.
Factor in Summer Demand
Summer is a busy moving season. While this means more options might be on the market, it also means faster turnover. If you’re planning to move, start your search early and be ready to apply quickly.
Set a Budget and Stick to It
Whether renewing or relocating, now’s a good time to reevaluate your budget. Account for rent, utilities, moving expenses, and any security deposits.
Staying realistic about your finances will help ensure your next rental decision is a stress-free one.
In Conclusion
Whether you choose to stay, move, or upgrade, summer is the ideal time to reassess your rental journey. At A.W. Properties LLC, we’re here to support you every step of the way, with reliable communication, flexible options, and a range of properties to fit your needs.
