What are some questions to ask before renting Orlando apartments?

The first questions you will want to know the answers to would be regarding their availability and applications. There is no use looking at a community with all 1 bedrooms when you are looking for a 4 bedroom place. A lot of other questions you should ask would be answered in the lease. Ask for a copy of a blank lease so you can completely understand the rules, regulations, policies, and procedures of the management and the community. Be sure to pick up the sections about parking, utilities, payments and late fees, and maintenance problems.

When I get the keys to my place, what are some things I should check out before I start moving my stuff in?

Great question! Before you start the grueling task of moving your stuff from the moving truck to your new place you will want to check a few key things. You should grab a lamp or something that you can plug in and make sure all of your electrical sockets are functioning correctly. You will also want to check the windows to ensure they are properly sealed. Conditions of the flooring and walls in orlando apartments will be visually apparent but be sure to check behind doors and in closets as well. If you were promised any appliances be sure they are all functioning.

What is the criteria for my application to be approved?

To be approved at Orlando apartments you must meet that criteria of the community you wish to move to. This criteria may vary based on the community and on the screening company they use. You will pay a small fee that the screening company requires to run a check on your credit and rental history and your employment. The leasing office will receive a report within a day or two and notify you if you are approved to rent.

Are there Orlando apartments with utilities included?

Yes, there sure are and its super easy to find on 407apartments! In student housing you will typically find all inclusive rent rates, which means all of your payments that would typically be separated would be bundled together in one. Instead of paying for your cable, internet, utilities, and trash, and furniture separately you will be able to pay one check and you are set. There are some multi family housing communities that will include all of your water or all of your electric. To find these places, simply check off your desired utilities under the “Cable and Utilities” section of the search site.

How do Orlando apartments deal with roommates?

If you are a student looking for random roommates, there are quite a few communities near UCF and Full Sail that will allow you to roommate match. What this entails is filling out a roommate preference form. The form will have you provide information regarding your study habits, your interest and hobbies, and other information that will help match you with other residents. Remember that the leasing office will try their best to match you with roommates based on the pool of people who have signed leases at that community.

Are there down payments at Orlando apartments?

Down payments typically include the first and last month’s rent and a security deposit. This security deposits can range from an amount less than a month’s rent to an amount more than a month’s rent. Other costs that may be necessary include application fees and credit check fees. Ask the leasing office what costs are required and when they are due. Also be sure to find out what form they need to be in, such as check or money order.

Do Orlando apartments do month to month leases?

Many places will require a lease to be sign between 7 to 12 months. You may have the option of signing a lease for over 12 months. It is pretty rare to see leases shorter than 7 months due to laws and limitations of communities, however, we have seen some situations where a month by month option is available for residents after they have completed the terms of their lease. This is not a very common practice, so you may want to consult the leasing office before proceeding with something like this. Use our search page to filter through places by lease lengths.

This is Florida and bugs are a huge problem. Do Orlando apartments offer pest control?

Lots of apartments in Orlando have pest control services built in to the rent. If you ever run into a problem with bugs, just call your leasing office and put in a request for pest control to come out and spray. Be aware that pest control may only come once a week or every few days, so your request may not be answered for a few days. There are some situations where you will have to pay for pest control sprays such as bed bugs. If you ever have a problem with bed bugs, alert your leasing office as soon as possible to avoid a serious infestation.

Can I pay my rent with cash or credit card at Orlando apartments?

Most Orlando apartments will not accept cash as a form of payment for rent. There are a couple reasons for this. It is much easier for employees to steal cash than to steal a check or money order, and by limiting the amount of cash in the office the chances of getting robbed are drastically reduced. With money orders, checks, and credit cards, there is more accountability and it is easier to track money in and out of accounts. Many communities offer online payments through their website or a resident portal. While paying by credit card can be easy and convenient, you may be charged a flat rate fee or a percentage of the payment amount for using that service.

If I decide to renew my lease in a year, will I be able to renew at the same rate?

It depends. The trend at most communities is to increase the rent each year; however, there are ways to get great deals. Many Orlando apartments offer specials throughout the year and may even offer renewal specials for current residents. Prices tend to change depending on the availability of floorplans so don’t be surprised when the prices increase or decrease over the span of a few days.

Can I still rent at Orlando apartments if I have bad credit?

There are a few ways to overcome an issue of having bad credit. The first way would be to have a co-signer, which in most cases would be a parent or guardian. This person would obviously have to have excellent credit. In some cases, a property management company may also accept an employer as a co-signer. If you going to go down this route, consult the leasing office for more information on their co-signer requirements. If you have bad credit but have a good income, partnered with a hefty deposit you may be able to remedy the issue.

I would like a furnished apartment, but I also have some furniture of my own. Would I be able to bring my own furniture?

When searching through Orlando apartments, a big decision to make is if you would like it furnished or non-furnished. On our search page you can search for furnished common rooms, furnished bedrooms, or entirely furnished apartments. When you find a community you are interested in, call their Leasing Office and ask about having the furniture removed from the unit. Some communities will happily remove the furniture you do not want; just be sure the staff makes a note in your file so you do not get charged for missing furniture when you move out. On the other hand, some communities will allow you to remove the furniture, however, its your responsibility to find storage for it elsewhere.

I am moving down to Floria from up north and I’d love to have an apartment with a fireplace. Are there any apartments in Orlando with a fireplace?

Great question! Because Florida is not prone to snow and harsh winters like the northern states, fireplaces are not as common. If you are looking for a community with a fireplace, try using the search page above. Under the Apartment Features you will be able to choose only communities with fireplaces. Remember that with fireplaces comes lots of mess and cleaning. Be sure you know how to properly care for your fireplace, and always use caution when using it.

I just signed a lease but now I want to get out of it. Is there a way to do that?

When you signed the lease, it was a legal contract therefore you cannot just get out of it. Obtain a copy of your lease, if you don’t already have one, and read through it to be sure of the conditions for breaking you lease. Because every apartment in Orlando is different, knowing what your specific lease says is very important. Finding someone to take over your lease is probably your best bet. Since some communities have waiting lists, speak with a staff member in the leasing office for advice. You may also find prospects by posting ads online or in the newspaper. Good luck!

My family and I love to grill on the weekends. Are there Orlando apartments that will allow us to grill?

Fire code rules and regulations prohibit the use of grills indoors or on covered patios and balconies. To search through apartments in Orlando with BBQ grills, click here. If you have already signed a lease somewhere, another option is to purchase an electric grill. You can purchase an electric grill at your local hardware store, or wherever grills are sold. Because electric grills do not use fire or gas, you are able to use these on your patios!

I am looking for furnished Orlando apartments. Where should I start?

If you are looking for furnished options, you are in luck. Central Florida has lots of options for renters who don’t have their own furniture to bring to their place with them. Use our search to find communities based on location, amenities, and furniture options.

Will I be assessed a late fee if I turn my rent in late?

Probably yes. The terms of your lease should specially state what, if any, late charges you will be assessed. Most Orlando apartments will have their rent due on the 1st of the month and will typically have a grace period in effect. This grace period typically ranges from about 3-6 days. If you pay your rent late after the grace period you will most likely be subject to a late fee. Late fees can either be one flast rate or a tier style system. For example, with the flat rate late charge you will pay the late fee regardless of if you are 7 days late, 17 days late, or 27 days late. The tier style late fee system would involve and increasingly higher late fee as you get further into the month. For example, if you pay your rent on the 7th day you may be assessed $25, if you pay on the 17th you will have a late fee of $50, and if you pay on the 27th you will owe $75 in late fees. If you know you will be late on your rent, speak with the management as soon as possible.

I really like the Millenia area but it seems so expensive. What’s the best place to rent at near the Millenia Mall?

Since many of the apartments near Millenia are newer and they are located so centrally, they tend to be a bit pricier. Try using our search page to find communities in Millenia that are within your budget. Simply choose Millenia under the neighborhood section and use the slider bars at the top to include your price range. You may also want to check out other communities in our Neighborhood Guide that are similar to Millenia, such as Waterford Lakes and Lake Mary.

What kind of things should I know when taking a tour?

Chances are that when you are taking a tour at Orlando apartments you will be taken to a model. You must remember that many communities will put thousands of dollars into decorating their models. If it’s possible, have the leasing agent take you to the specific unit you will be moving into or another empty unit in the community. By looking at completely empty rooms, you will get better idea of how much space you have and you will also be able to see any normal wear and tear.

Is there a shuttle bus service to UCF from Orlando apartments?

YUP! The campus has a shuttle bus service that has stops through the area, sometimes even stopping within the communities. Some communities will even have their own shuttle service that will take residents straight to and from the community and campus. To find which complexes are on or near a stop, simply check off UCF shuttle under the Public Transportation section on the Search Page.

If I move will I be able to get out of my lease?

Probably not. Because your lease is a legal contract, breaking it can be next to impossible and moving may result in you having to continue to pay the remainder of what you owe. If you know you will be moving, notify your leasing office right away and ask if they have a waiting list. This is the ideal way to have someone take over your lease and the cost would be very minimal for you. If there leasing office is not willing to help you find someone to take over your lease, post your vacancy online, in newspapers, and around town. You may also want to spread the word to coworkers and friends!

Who can I talk to if my application is denied?

Speaking to a manager or the corporate offices of a community where your application has been denied typically won’t get you very far. This is due to the fact that Orlando apartments use third party companies to screen their applicants, and if the criteria are not met the application will be denied. The communities do not decide on the criteria, and furthermore, due to Fair Housing laws it would be unlawful for the communities to allow a denied applicant to rent from them. If you application is denied, ask for the staff for a report, if possible.

I have not yet received my deposit refund check. Who should I contact?

If you believe you should have received a deposit refund check and you have not yet heard or gotten anything, contact the leasing office right away. The business manager or accounts manager at Orland apartments will be able to tell you if there were any damages or fees that were taken out of your deposit and if there was a balance left on your account or if you are entitled any of your deposit back. Upon moving out, have a staff member do a walkthrough of the unit with you to avoid any surprise fees or bills.

I am looking for safe apartments in Orlando. What are some safe neighborhoods?

I love working out, but with my busy schedule I can't make it to the gym until really late. Are there apartments in Orlando with 24 hour fitness centers?

Absolutely! While some communities have gyms or fitness centers that are only open during limited hours, there are others that have 24 hour access. Most communities that have these types of fitness centers will have a remote or card for accessing these areas during very early or late hours. This is for safety purposes, as well as limiting use to only residents.

Is there a fee for terminating my lease early?

Fees for terminating you lease depends on the terms of your lease. If you don’t have a copy of your contract, obtain one for your landlord or the leasing office. Read through the lease to see what the lease termination procedure is for your community. If you are having trouble, consult a leasing agent or manager in the office. Since the termination fees are associated with cancelling a lease at Orlando apartments is usually pretty steep, try subleasing or subletting your apartment.

I make a lot of online purchases and I’ve had problems in the past receiving my packages. Where will my packages be delivered?

Most of the time your package will be delivered to your door or the leasing office. If no one is home or the leasing office is closed, your package may be returned to the post office. A notice on your door or in your mailbox will notify you of which post office you should pick your package up from. Some Orlando apartments have large locked compartments for packages near the mailboxes. The mail man will leave a key in your private mailbox to access your package from a specified compartment.

How many sets of keys will I receive when I move into my new home, and how can I be sure that the last tenant didn’t make a copy of the key and can come into my home?

The number of keys issues to residents at Orlando apartments varies from company to company. Most communities will issue a key for each person living in the unit. Copies of the key can be made if you would like extras, provided the management allows this. Remember that all of the front door locks are changed in between tenants, so you can be sure no one else will have a access to your home. If you are concerned that lock was changed, you can request that the maintenance replace it which may be an extra charge.

I have a dog and even though I live in a pet friendly complex, there is nowhere to walk my dog. Are there Orlando apartments with a dog walk or a dog park?

Yes! There are actually many apartments in Orlando with a dog walk in the community or it is located near a dog park. I personally know what it is like to feel when you are walking your dog and other residents are giving you funny looks. To find the communities with dog walks, navigate to our search page and choose “Dog walk” under the Community Features section. If there is another community you are interested in that does not have a dog walk, call the leasing office and ask about dog parks in the area.

My family and I have four cars and I'm worried about the parking situations at different Orlando apartments. Are there Orlando apartments that have open parking or guaranteed parking spots?

Absolutely! Using our search feature you can search for communities that have parking included with rent, guarenteed parking, and garages available. Some communities will charge you monthly for each vehicle you have. Always ask the leasing office what their parking policies are to avoid getting towed.

I would like to paint my walls when I move to a new place. Are there apartments in Orlando that will allow this?

There are many places that will allow you to paint your walls, however, there may be stipulations. You may need approval from a manager before you start painting, or you may be required to paint your walls back to the original color when you move out. Some Orlando apartments have written in their leases that residents are not allowed to paint the interior walls of the unit. Always refer to your lease or ask a management staff member before beginning a painting project.

How can I decide if the place I want to live is a safe Orlando apartment?

There are a few things you can do to determine how safe you and your family will be at a new place. The first advice we have would be to contact your local police office. They will have records of any criminal activity and criminal incidents that have occurred there. Also doing something as simple as driving around the community during the daytime AND nighttime will give you an idea of how busy or quiet the community is at different points of the day. This will also help you avoid any surprises when you move in. Good luck!

How long before I move-in should I start looking at Orlando apartments?

The general rule of thumb would be about three to five months before you want to move in. By allowing a few months you will properly be able to narrow down options based on your preferences, take advantage of any specials going on, and plan for the financials. It will also give you enough time to plan for the move, between renting storage, moving trucks, and packing. You definitely don’t want to make a hasty or impulsive decision on where you are going to be living and spending thousands of dollars.

Do apartments in Orlando allow people to smoke?

It is very rare to find Orlando apartments that allow their resident to smoke anymore. The reason for this is because the lingering odors and stains are very difficult to remove. If you would like to find a place where you will be allowed to smoke, try searching for communities with patios or balconies. The management may allow residents to smoke on their patios. To search for a place with patios or balconies, navigate to our search page and check patio and balconies in the Apartment Features section. Always double check your lease for the rules and regulations of your specific community.

I will be using a moving truck to transport my stuff to my new place. Are moving trucks allowed inside the community and how long can the truck be parked for?

The tons and tons of stuff we’ve accumulated over the years but we just can’t part with makes moving quite the task. The majority of us will require a moving truck, and with the cost of those suckers we want to pack it and unpack it as quickly as possible. The management knows that residents will most likely be using moving trucks when they move in. The rule is to be courteous. Don’t park your moving truck in the middle of the street because you will be blocking in cars and inhibiting traffic flow. Don’t leave your moving truck parked across five spaces in busy part of the complex. Try to do your unloading quickly and away from heavy traffic. If you will be leaving the truck overnight, notify the office and make sure you have the proper parking permits and you know where you are allowed to park the truck.

Are there problems with bed bugs at apartments in Orlando?

Unfortunately, bed bugs are reaching epidemic proportions throughout major cities all over the world. While your community may not have an issue with bed bugs, they can quickly spread. Educating yourself on bed bugs is the best way to prevent spreading them into your home. Bed bugs are reddish, brown with flat oval-like bodies. They tend to hide out in places such as bed frames, mattresses, and box springs. They can piggy back into your home through your luggage, clothes, and other belongings you travel with. They can even find their way into your home through your moving boxes! Always check hotel rooms for bed bugs before unpacking and inspect luggage when you return home.

The last place I lived in had apartment sized appliance, and I didn’t realize it until I moved in. Are there apartments in Orlando with full sized appliances?

YES! This is one thing that may slip through the cracks when you are searching for a new home. You take a tour of the model and see the appliances or read in their brochure that there is a washer and dryer; however, you fail to realize that they are not the full sized appliances that many of us are used to. For singles, the smaller appliances are great because it saves on the water and power bills. For families, it’s a shock when you are doing 5-6 loads of laundry when it usually only takes you 3! To avoid this situation in the future, ask the leasing office if they have “full sized” appliances. Remember that these bigger appliances also take up more space, so be prepared for a larger percentage of your square footage to be taken up by them. Good luck!

Great question. Call us crazy, but we’re passionate about helping renters find the perfect apartment for them. It’s more than showing rent prices, specials, floor plans, photos, and amenities. It’s about making sure that our search is detailed and interactive enough to help you find the perfect option that meets your budget and lifestyle. Why? It’s simple. If you make the right choice now, you’re less likely to move when your lease ends in 12 months.
