Protect yourself if you rent Metro Creative Services

T

he downward economy has taken its toll on the housing market. Many people are choosing or finding it necessary to live as renters rather than homeowners. Other renters are students, anxiously awaiting their first foray into residential independence. But these same people may be unaware of how to safeguard their belongings in a rental situation.

Oftentimes renters mistakenly forego financial protection and are then left high and dry in the event of a burglary, flood or fire.

Laptops, MP3 players, global positioning systems, jewelry, and cell phones are at the top of the list for would-be thieves. Furniture and clothing are also expensive to replace.

According to MetLife Auto & Home(R), the average person is estimated to have approximately $20,000 in possessions.

In a rental property, individuals such as a superintendent or landlord may have access to your home, as may hired contractors. It's important to protect all of your belongings so you don't have to pay out of pocket if something is taken or damaged.

Renting an apartment is not like living in an on-campus dorm or in a private residence, where belongings are typically covered by a homeowners insurance policy. Landlord's insurance only protects the actual property -- not your valuables or the cost of temporary housing -- and it doesn't protect you

in case of a lawsuit. You should investigate rental insurance, which is something that, despite the warnings, 80 percent of college and other renters do not do, according to research.

Getting ready to rent out your home?

Things for prospective landlords to consider before renting Metro Creative Services

W

hile the economic downturn hit many people rather hard over the last year, some people have been able to weather the storm and actually thrive in the current economic climate. Real estate investors who managed to keep their holdings under control, for instance, have experienced somewhat of a financial windfall as the economy regressed.

This may be due to victims of foreclosure seeking rental properties or more and more people steering clear of committing to a home of their own and choosing instead to rent.

But renting out a property isn't as easy as 1-2-3, even in a market where more people are looking to rent than buy. In fact, vacancies in larger cities such as New York and Los Angeles are so commonplace that rents and stipulations such as realtor fees have begun to drop, albeit slightly. Still, the current climate could benefit those with a spare property ready to rent. There are just a few things to consider before advertising.

Is It Allowed?

14 Brown County Homes Guide June - July 2010

It's not uncommon for young people to purchase an apartment before purchasing a home but keep the apartment once they do, in fact, buy their first home. That's often done with the intention of renting out the property once a home is purchased.

W h i l e that's a sound financial plan, it's not necessarily allowed. Before deciding to rent out a property, be it a condominium or apartment, be sure the condo association allows it. Discuss the situation with an association representative to see just what is and isn't allowed. In some instances, a contract will stipulate that a property can be rented, but

only through the association's own management team, which can cost you, the owner, money.

Will You Do It Yourself?

property was worth at the time it was damaged or stolen, due to depreciation. "Replacement cost" coverage will replace the item at current prices.

* Add extra protection for unique items with special value. For expensive items such as jewelry, furs, fine arts, sterling silver flatware, antiques, and other collectibles, renters should add an "endorsement," which provides additional protection above the monetary limits of a traditional policy.

Add extra protection for unique items with special value.

* Take advantage of a discount for multiple policies.

Often insurance companies provide a discount when a person has multiple policies, such as renter's insurance, car insurance, or life insurance.

* Keep track of possessions with a personal property inventory to help when filing claims and keep a copy in a safe place outside the apartment. MetLife's Life Advice Series advises that every home

have a personal property inventory because it will help you determine the approximate value of your possessions, and consequently, how much insurance you need to cover your personal property.

For additional information about renting a home and renter's insurance, MetLife Auto & Home offers consumers two free, comprehensive brochures as part of the Life Advice series: "Homeowners Insurance and Your Home," as well as a "Personal Property Inventory" brochure to help people keep track of their valuables. These materials are available by calling 1-800-6385433 (1-800-MET-LIFE), or 1-866-MET-VIDA (for callers that prefer to speak in Spanish).

Landlord continued from page 18

While some condo associations insist their management team handle things, others don't. Still, that doesn't mean doing it yourself is easy or even desirable. Owners can hire a real estate management group independently that will handle things related to renting, such as finding tenants, running credit checks, even maintenance and handling complaints.

Of course, this will cost owners money.

But for those who simply have busy schedules and an extra property they're not yet

ready to sell, hiring a management group can save you the headaches of being a landlord while still affording you to earn extra money on the property.

Furnished or Unfurnished?

Another thing to consider is whether or not to rent the property furnished or unfur-

But renting out a property isn't as easy as 1-2-3... nished. Chances are, if you've

been living in the property recently, there's plenty of furniture available to rent it furnished. Of course, this means you'll have to purchase furniture for your new place.

Oftentimes, the financial benefits of furnished versus unfurnished is a toss-up. Some renters prefer an unfurnished place, while others would pay more per month if the place is furnished. One option is to lease the apartment as "Furnished or Unfurnished." This keeps the apartment on all potential renters' radar, and if you settle on a tenant who prefers it unfurnished, you can always rent a storage unit for a small monthly fee to store any leftover furniture you might want to keep.
