Here at Carmel Landing, we would like to welcome our new residents.  We’re so glad you’re here! Since you are just coming in, we’d like to make sure we get to inform you of some of the things you can do to be a great neighbor and tenant.  Sticking to these things will benefit not only us but you as well, because it will make for a good relationship with your neighbors, who will be more likely to be there for you if you need anything.

Before signing on the dotted line, make sure you have read the terms of your lease.  These will outline for you the expectations that we have of you.  For example, it will tell you about our policies about noise, trash, and more.  We would like you to pay attention to the condition of your apartment as you are living there.  If any stains get on anything, make sure you keep on top of them now to avoid money being taken out of your security deposit for damages.

Finally, please keep your fellow residents in mind when it comes to noise.  Everyone has a different work and sleep schedule, and while you’re wide awake one of your neighbors may be sleeping or trying to catch up on work.  Keep the radio noise down and talk softly when you’re standing outside so as not to create a problem for those around you.

For more tips on how to be a great tenant and neighbor, read up on this topic with some of the articles written by The Rentables, a great site dedicated to apartment living.  If you have anything you would add to their list of things that make you a good renter, let us know by commenting below, and thanks for being such wonderful new residents!
