Practical example

For example, a cheap-looking apartment can become expensive because of key money, guarantor fees, renewal fees, and move-out cleaning. Before viewing, ask if foreign residents can apply. Before signing, request a written estimate. At move-in, take photos of walls, floors, fixtures, and stains for move-out records.
