Article: There are strict rules governing housing in most areas, and regulations vary from location to location. To learn about the specific laws and regulations in your area, it's best to get in touch with a good lawyer in your area who is familiar with the housing field. Let them know you are interested in managing apartments, and ask what relevant policies you need to know about. Lawyers may also be able to advise you on tax liabilities and potential credits related to renting property. To find a lawyer, you can begin by searching for something like, "landlord lawyer Los Angeles." You can also ask any lawyers you know if they can refer you to a lawyer who specializes in matters related to property and renting. Once you have one or more potential lawyers, set up a meeting with each. Talk to them about your plans for renting, and decide if they seem like someone you could work with. If so, talk with them about the services they can provide and the fees they will charge. Your entire property should be insured against loss, damage, and other issues. If you have employees managing or maintaining the property, make sure that they are also properly insured. Check with a lawyer and/or insurance agent if you aren't sure what kind of protection you need. This is a legal contract that covers the agreement between the landlord and tenant. It is signed when a tenant and landlord agree to rent an apartment, and copies are kept for both parties. You can find lease templates online, or talk to your lawyer about what information to put in one. Most leases include things like: The names and signatures of the tenant(s) and landlord. The date the lease was signed. The starting and ending dates that the property will be rented Rent costs and due dates Policies on security deposits and lease termination Information on any environmental hazards present at the property Optional policies on things like subletting and any utilities included in the rent This is usually used to cover expenses in the event that there are damages or other problems with the apartment when a tenant moves out. However, there are specific legal regulations governing how to collect, manage, and return security deposits (if the apartment is satisfactory upon move-out). Ask your lawyer to explain the policies regarding security deposits. You may be required to hold the funds in escrow while the tenant occupies the apartment, and return the deposit, minus any valid charges, within a certain time period, such as 30 days. Refer to the Landlord Tenant Act in your state or region to find out how long you have to return the deposit and/or a settlement statement. Many areas have laws that now require landlords to let tenants know if there is lead paint or plumbing in the apartment building. If there are other environmental hazards that tenants may be exposed to, let them know in writing. This will provide legal protection and let tenants make good choices.

Unlike on-campus dorms, off-campus housing are usually cheaper (depending on the city) and don't require you to buy a meal plan. Just make sure that you don't live too far from campus and factor in grocery cost Stock up on storable "dorm food" that don't require appliances such as cereal, oatmeal, yogurt, granola bars,Ramen noodles, crackers, peanut butter or hazelnut spread. Save even more money by taking some food, drinks, or condiments to-go from dining halls. Check your university's housing options and rates. Doubles-rooms are usually cheaper than single or suite-style, but also means less room and privacy. Weigh pros and cons before choosing.

If living on-campus, pick a housing option you can afford.
