These are important to take note of, as they will be the first indication of what the property offers, its price and just how reputable the company you are working with is. Here are the top 5 things to look for in a rental listing.<\/p>\n<p><strong>1. Details:<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-2249\" src=\"https:\/\/www.propertyfinder.bh\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/shutterstock_1063465130-540x400.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"540\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.propertyfinder.bh\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/shutterstock_1063465130-540x400.jpg 540w, https:\/\/www.propertyfinder.bh\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/shutterstock_1063465130-768x569.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.propertyfinder.bh\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/shutterstock_1063465130-800x593.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.propertyfinder.bh\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/shutterstock_1063465130.jpg 1000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 540px) 100vw, 540px\" \/><\/strong><br \/>\nYou should really pay attention to the details that the company or agent are placing on the listing. In addition to price and number of rooms, you should also consider square meter, facilities, any community rules, etc.\u2026<\/p>\n<p><strong>2. All the amenities:<\/strong><br \/>\nListings will usually include furnishings, kitchen appliance availability, and all the information comes with it. But does it list the shared amenities you can use? Swimming pools, gyms, even parking and storage should be on that listing. The listing should also go into details about the unit\u2019s amenities, such as walk-in closets, balconies, etc.\u2026<\/p>\n<p><strong>3. Policies and rules:<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-2248\" src=\"https:\/\/www.propertyfinder.bh\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/shutterstock_477123538-668x400.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"668\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.propertyfinder.bh\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/shutterstock_477123538-668x400.jpg 668w, https:\/\/www.propertyfinder.bh\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/shutterstock_477123538-768x460.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.propertyfinder.bh\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/shutterstock_477123538-800x479.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.propertyfinder.bh\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/shutterstock_477123538.jpg 1000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 668px) 100vw, 668px\" \/><\/strong><br \/>\nDoes it list any community\u2019s policies and guidelines that you might be in place? This can be anything from not allowing pets, to zero tolerance to noise, maximum number of visitors\u2026 More importantly, it should mention the lease length and terms.<\/p>\n<p><strong>4. Price:<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-2246\" src=\"https:\/\/www.propertyfinder.bh\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/shutterstock_253938001-400x400.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.propertyfinder.bh\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/shutterstock_253938001-400x400.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.propertyfinder.bh\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/shutterstock_253938001-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.propertyfinder.bh\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/shutterstock_253938001-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.propertyfinder.bh\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/shutterstock_253938001-800x800.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.propertyfinder.bh\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/shutterstock_253938001.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/strong><br \/>\nYes, price will be visibility listed on all listings, but, does it mention other costs that could accompany it? Think or the deposit, agent fees, utilities, any community fees, or additional fees for parking. This should all be mentioned and detailed in the listing.<\/p>\n<p><strong>5. Photos:<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-2247\" src=\"https:\/\/www.propertyfinder.bh\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/shutterstock_427241281-600x400.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.propertyfinder.bh\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/shutterstock_427241281-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.propertyfinder.bh\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/shutterstock_427241281-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.propertyfinder.bh\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/shutterstock_427241281-800x534.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.propertyfinder.bh\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/shutterstock_427241281.jpg 1000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/strong><br \/>\nHigh quality photography is one of the most important things that you should look for in a listing. They are the best tool to gauge the property and the company itself, giving you a better understanding not only about the unit, but also about the company you are dealing with.<\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.propertyfinder.bh\/en\/rent\/properties-for-rent.html\">Click here to find properties for rent in Bahrain\u00a0<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This article was published on September\u00a02nd, 2018 There are a number of details that you need to look for when &hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":2251,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"spay_email":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[],"translation":{"provider":"WPGlobus","version":"2.10.9","language":"en","enabled_languages":["en","ar"],"languages":{"en":{"title":true,"content":true,"excerpt":false},"ar":{"title":true,"content":true,"excerpt":false}}},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v17.1 -
