Renting an Apartment

Average Lease Term

1 year lease, 3 months' written notice for any suspension of the lease.
An apartment can be sub-let with the agreement of the landlord; unless there is an understanding with the landlord, the main tenant stays responsible for the lease until the end.

Average Rental Costs

The rent is payable on the 1st of each month. Most landlords ask for 12 post dated checks, but they do not have the right to demand this. The landlord can require a cosignatory or a guarantor. A deposit is rarely required.
