2 HERE ARE SOME HELPFUL RENTING TIPS: LEASE: Not every property requires a 1-year lease! Some may be rent to own, and others can be month to month. Also, some landlords may reduce the rent amount if you offer a long term (2 years or more) lease! RENT: Work exchange can be a great tool for reducing rent. Many landlords are willing to reduce the rent if you are willing to do some work such as Lawn care, child care or other small jobs around the house. An example would be a built in baby sitter or perhaps you are a bookkeeper who can perform accounting services There may be many opportunities. PETS: Though we let you know on every property which landlords are pet friendly, look at ALL good properties. If you really love a property, perhaps with the right pet references or a pet security deposit the right landlord may allow your wonderful companion. BE PREPARED: Make a phone call and set up an appointment BEFORE you drive by. This way, you ll already have an appointment before you see it. If you drive by first, someone else could be sweet talking the landlord! BRING A CHECK: Bring your checkbook with you when you see a place. This way if you like it, you ll be prepared to give the security deposit. If you don t have a checking account, get some money orders and bring them with you. (Be careful! A blank money order is like cash! DON T LOSE IT!) REFERENCES: Get all your references together and ready TODAY! We strongly recommend that you prepare at least 5 separate packs of references. EACH pack should include the following: o Current Landlord Reference o Current Job Reference o Personal reference (Try to get at least 3) (School, Church, Community, etc) o Proof of Income. (Copies of Paycheck, Bank Statement, Social Security Check stub or any way that you can prove income.) o Credit Card or Installment payment history. (If you have them and they re good!) Now Place copies of those documents in a big flat manila envelope. Don t just push them on the landlord; wait until they ask for references. Then you can say As a matter of fact, I have them right here. Then the landlord will see how prepared you are, plus, tell them you re a customer of our company and you ll have a better chance to rent the BEST property, not the NEXT one! You ll be surprised to see how a good set of references can make some landlords forget about credit checks! It certainly can t hurt! MOVE IN DISCOUNT: Here s some fantastic news! When you see a $ in the codes, it means that the landlord has agreed to reduce your first month s rent just for being one of our customers. Just show them your registration form and they will reduce your first month s rent! Some do the whole amount, while others may deduct a different amount. Some do a little, some do a lot. Each landlord is different. When you see the $ make sure to tell the landlord you got the information from Locators!

4 As stated in your Policy Agreement, we cannot give out information about any properties that appear in any advertisements because there is no accurate real time way to check whether any advertised properties are still available. Accordingly, because we simply can t discuss advertised properties, you must refer to your current listings only. PLEASE KEEP IN MIND THAT BECAUSE WE DON T USE ANY TRACKING NUMBERS IN ANY ADVERTISED PROPERTIES, THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO WAY TO TRACK ANY ADVERTISED PROPERTY. THERE IS NO WAY TO TELL WHETHER THE PROPERTY IS ON PAGE 2 OR 3 OF YOUR LISTINGS OR IF IT WILL EVEN APPEAR AT ALL. OUR RECOMMENDATION IS TO ONLY GO BY THE LISTINGS FROM THE WEB SITE AND NOT BY ANY ADVERTISED PROPERTY. Here s what you need to know: IF the advertised property in question IS still available AND meets the features you chose, (such as County, Price & Bedroom) it will appear in your listings. If it does not then the property has either become rented; we have deleted it from our database or it does not match your search choices. You may wish to expand your search to a higher price or lower bedroom range so as to include ALL potential rental options, to give you more and better choices. The nature of rental properties is that they become rented or available on a rapid basis. Therefore, many of the properties that you may see in the newspaper or on Craigslist, may have been rented by the time you view them. We are not the landlord and cannot hold any particular property that may appear in advertising print. Since we do not show or manage the properties, we cannot g u a r a n t e e the availability of any advertised property. The current properties that we offer will appear in your listings.
