How Many Rooms You Need?

Is your family going to grow? Do you have parents and other family visiting often? If the answer is yes to both, then you need a home with 2 or more bedrooms. If you have growing children, you’ll also need a home with a playground attached, or look for a home close to parks and other recreational options.

If you wish to set up a home office, you’ll need additional space for that as well as 24/7 power back-up and high-speed internet, so add these two factors to your search criteria.

Do You Need Furniture?

If you’re moving from another city, it’s most likely that you don’t have all your furniture with you. In this case, look for homes that provide all the furniture and amenities you require. On NoBroker you can filter out homes that are fully furnished, semi-furnished or unfurnished.

If you choose an unfurnished home and might move soon, you can always rent out your furniture. There are plenty of furniture rental companies that offer single pieces of furniture for rent as well as complete bedroom sets, living room sets and more. Check furniture at NoBroker from here.

Safety Of the Building

With many builders cutting corners to maximise profit, you need to thoroughly check the house before moving in. Trust only verified builders and ask a lot of questions from the owner. If it’s an independent house, check when it was built and if It has been maintained well.

Always check for leaks, mold, running water and sanitation facilities available in the house. These can major issues and are also very tough to fix in a short span of time. Added safety features to look for are security cameras, alarms, fire exits and security guards.

Location Of Your Home 

Location doesn’t just mean a good neighbourhood that’s well connected. You will also need to keep in mind where your office is, how much you will spend on commutes, how far the commute to schools, colleges and more. The easiest was to find the best location is by using the NoBroker Life Score Calculator.

The report the calculator provides will give you a clear idea of how much time and money you will save by staying in the right location. You can also see the impact your choice has on the environment.

We hope these factors help you choose the right rental home or rental apartment for your family. If you don’t have the time, don’t worry the experts at NoBroker will help you find a home that meets all your requirements. Just click below to start your home search.
