Red Flags for Renters to Watch Out For

13. Consider if renting from a family member is worth it.

When renting a home or apartment, you may think it’s a great idea to lease from a family member. Not only are you helping them out with money and knowing personally who their tenant is, but they may give you a deal on rent or anything else that may be included in rent. Even though it may seem like a good idea, you may want to reconsider signing a lease contract for someplace a family member is a landlord too.
