ɸ¿¬ ³«´¬·°´» ·²¯«·®·»- ©·´´ ¼± ¬± §±«® ±ª»®¿´´ ½®»¼·¬ -½±®» Q. My sister-in-law is apartment hunting in San Diego, and she s been told that every time a landlord, or anyone else, submits a credit check, her credit score is automatically lowered by the credit rating agencies. Is that true? A. Not exactly. Typically, those inquiries are a very small part of a credit rating. In many cases, they re ignored completely or have zero impact, said Craig Watts, spokesman for the Fair Isaac Corp., which created the FICO credit score system more than 25 years ago. A FICO score, which is the most commonly used credit scoring system in the country, is based on ve categories. The biggest factor affecting your score is your payment history: how promptly you pay and how often you ve been delinquent on monthly payments. Credit report inquiries from a landlord, if they re counted at all, would be less than ve points on a person s score, according to Watts. There s a difference between requests from landlords or a credit card company, and those from an auto dealer or mortgage company. In general, if you re shopping for a home or auto loan and contact several different lenders to compare rates, it won t hurt your credit score. That s because the FICO computing system was changed a few years ago to protect consumers from being penalized for seeking multiple, competitive interest rates on home or auto loans. If you have several inquiries from car loan or mortgage companies in a 45-day period, they re lumped together as a single inquiry, Watts said. That s not usually the case with apartment landlords and credit card companies. Even so, the impact of such inquiries is negligible.
There are far more signi cant ways to damage your credit score. It can drop if you ve: Missed any bill payments, even a 30-day late payment. Been hit with collection agency notices, foreclosures, repossessions, tax liens or bankruptcies. Applied for any new credit accounts, which can indicate increased risk. Closed any credit card accounts, increased the balances or had credit limits reduced. Any of those might affect the ratio between how much credit you re using and how much you have available. (Some debt counselors say that if you re using more than 50 percent of your available credit, it can have a negative impact.) And remember, you don t get dinged by making inquiries into your own credit report. One of the best ways to stay on top of your credit score is to request a free annual peek from each of the three major credit reporting agencies (Experian, Equifax and TransUnion). Check annualcreditreport.com. Generally, requesting a credit report of your credit history is free; obtaining a credit score costs a nominal fee, typically in the $7 to $15 range. As for future apartment hunting, here s a tip: When you re applying for an apartment, bring a printout of all three of your credit reports and scores (from Experian, TransUnion and Equifax), said Emily Davidson, spokeswoman with credit.com in San Francisco. There s a chance the landlord will use (your) documents instead of pulling a credit inquiry.

So, it s tempting to give only passing attention to hiring a mover and the related incidental costs. That could be a mistake - for your wallet and your peace of mind. Moving can be quite expensive. A typical full-service interstate move costs about $4,300, while the same in-state move might cost about $2,500, according to the American Moving & Storage Association. And while the moving industry has many ne companies, it is notorious for fraud and dirty tactics by so-called rogue movers. Here are tips on making your move with lower costs and less hassle. CHOOSE A TYPE OF MOVE: You have three basic choices: do-it-yourself, full service and a relatively new hybrid of the two. Going it alone is cheapest, costing the rental price of a truck, gasoline, packing materials and, perhaps, pizza and beer for friends you rope into helping. HIRE A QUALITY MOVER: If you hire help, get at least three price quotes and do homework. Seek recommendations by talking with family and friends. Investigate a company s reputation with the Better Business Bureau (bbb.org), Yelp.com and possibly the paidmembership site Angie s List (angieslist.com). Check a company s complaint history at the federal government site, ProtectYourMove.gov. DECLUTTER: No matter what type of move you re making, taking less stuff is cheaper and less hassle. Set up a staging area with various piles for recycle, donate and sell. BE FLEXIBLE: Like airline fares, moving rates depend on when you book. The busiest time for movers, and thus the most expensive time for consumers, is summer weekends near the 15th and 30th of the month. Ask what rates
ïî
would be for different days or seasons. SAVE ON BOXES: Buying new boxes from a moving company is the most expensive choice. Ask if you can buy used boxes from your moving company. Cheaper yet is nding free boxes, ideally from somebody who just moved. Specialty boxes, such as wardrobe boxes, might be cheaper to purchase at a do-ityourself moving store, such as U-Haul. SAVE ON PACKING MATERIALS: If you re packing yourself, ll suitcases, laundry baskets and plastic containers with unbreakable items. Use pillows, scarves and towels to wrap fragile belongings. And you might as well empty your paper shredder into a box to add cushion. MAIL BOOKS: If you have many books, pack them yourself and ship them at the postal media mail rate. It might be cheaper than paying a mover. A 70-pound box would cost less than $30. CONSIDER CONSOLIDATION: For longdistance moves, ask about consolidating your stuff on a truck with other people s. INSURE IT: Check your homeowner s or renter s insurance policy to determine whether it provides coverage for your belongings while in transit. If not, you ll probably want more than the basic free valuation coverage a full-service mover provides. Be aware that you probably cannot get insurance on boxes you packed yourself. A mover must pack them. BE PREPARED: Plot out where furniture and boxes will go. The less time movers spend rearranging, the less expensive it will be. TIP: Tipping each mover $3 to $5 per hour is customary, said Stephen Coady, marketing manager for Gentle Giant Moving Co. in Somerville, Massachusetts. For in-depth information on choosing a mover, see the free, downloadable Make a Smart Move available at moving.org.

But these days having the gumption to renegotiate a lease is paying off as landlords struggle to nd and keep tenants with good credit and a history of paying on time. Ask Mike Haskins, a Raleigh, North Carolina, resident who recently was able to lower his rent. The vacancy rate had risen in his neighborhood after two other apartment complexes had been built. He knew that the complex in which he was renting wasn t at capacity, and rent for a similar unit on the rst oor was set at $650; his rent was $750. I felt like I had some power, said the 24-year-old. It took some pushing and a threat to take his business elsewhere but before long, Haskins made a deal. When he renewed his lease, his rent was $100 lower. It felt like it was the same experience you go through when getting a car. If you agree to the rst thing they offer you, it s probably not the best you re going to get, he said. There are several reasons landlords may be willing to make a deal these days. Eighty-eight percent of property owners who participated in a recent rent.com survey said that job losses are contributing to vacancy rates. Fifty percent said would-be tenants can t afford rent or are trying to save, and 45 percent said that the trend of more people doubling up with roommates is causing units to sit vacant. The survey polled owners representing 3,192 apartment communities throughout the country. Plus, there s even more inventory to compete with these days because in sluggish housing markets many homeowners rent their homes instead of selling, said Peggy Abkemeier, general manager of rent.com. And some renters are becoming homeowners as affordability improves and the government entices them with a rst-time buyer tax credit.
ïì
In response to vacancies, 68 percent of landlords said they were lowering rents and 68 percent also said they were giving one or more months of rent free; 38 percent said they were reducing deposits; and 18 percent were offering upgrades or allowing more leniency for breaking leases or changing status, according to the rent.com survey. Fifteen percent are offering storage or parking at reduced rates, and 8 percent are relaxing pet policies. Another survey, from Move Inc., which operates realtor.com, found that 39 percent of people would sign a 12-month lease if it came with two months of free rent, and 18 percent would sign for free utilities for two months including water, electricity and gas. Fourteen percent said a free at screen or LCD television would get them to commit to a lease for a year. And yet another survey by TransUnion, which screens credit for property-management companies, found that half of property managers are having dif culty locating qualied renters, compared with last year. Lessors of real estate are earning signicantly less so far this year, according to Sageworks, a nancial information company. Prots are falling, company research shows, and empty units cost money to maintain. Still, rental markets do vary, so before you start negotiating make sure you know your market s dynamics. In California s East Contra Costa area, rentals are scarce because there is so much competition between former homeowners who lost their homes in foreclosure, said real-estate agent Lynne Palmer. In fact, there are some markets where the monthly cost of renting is more than the cost of buying a similar place, such as Queen Creek. They re usually areas that have been really hit by foreclosures, as well as short sales, said Leslie Tyler, vice president of ZipRealty.

But that s where the common ground ends. Most homeowners have insurance that covers the loss of their possessions in the event of a re, theft, or other covered peril. That s not the case for renters. Nationwide, 96 percent of homeowners have homeowners insurance (such insurance is a requirement of having a home loan) while only 43 percent of renters have renters insurance, industry statistics show. Almost half of the renters questioned in an Allstate survey of the Bay Area conducted in June said they knew about renters insurance, but had not yet bothered to look into getting a policy. Another third said they didn t think their possessions were valuable enough to get insurance. (Renters) tend to be younger when they enter the rental market and (think) My stuff is not worth that much but when you lose everything it s devastating, said Dawn Prince, owner of an Allstate agency in San Francisco. That s not the attitude to take, she said. It s not that you don t have that much. It s that what you do have would be very difcult to go out and replace, she said. Forty-two percent of renters in the Allstate survey, regardless of whether they had renters insurance or not, estimated the value of their possessions at $20,000 or more. Premiums for renters insurance are tied to the insured value of your possessions and the size of the deductible, among other factors. It depends on how much coverage you choose, Prince said, adding that the cost can be lowered if you get renters insurance from the same carrier that provides your auto insurance. Renters insurance covers the loss
ïê
of personal property due to re or smoke, lightning, vandalism, theft, explosion, windstorm and water damage from plumbing. Renters insurance also provides for temporary lodging. But it does not cover damage caused by earthquakes, oods or landslides. Such coverage has to be purchased separately. When looking for renters insurance, make sure the policy has replacement coverage as opposed to actual cash value coverage, experts advise. With replacement coverage, the insurance company pays up to the policy s dollar amount for what it costs in today s dollars to replace the items. Actual cash value pays the replacement cost minus the appreciation. Renters insurance also includes personal liability coverage for medical and legal bills in cases where the insured renter causes accidental injury to other people and/or their property. Not only that but the liability coverage also extends outside of the home. Personal liability coverage deals with things that happen in life that don t necessarily have to be at home, Holland explained. Some renters policies can also include dog bite liability with coverage depending on the dog s breed and it s history. When a renter has roommates, it s important to ask the carrier if the policy can be written in the names of the all roommates, said Holland. Some renters incorrectly assume the landlord s insurance for the apartment building will cover their possessions. There is no duplication of coverage between a landlord s coverage and a tenant s coverage, Holland said. The upshot: If a re in your apartment building destroys your possessions, you re out of luck if you don t have renters insurance.
