In renting, (rent.com) when it says laundry room, does it include dryer & machine?
Question:I've been searching for an apartment and it's my first time. Right now, I find Rent.com kinda helpful in searching. But, I'm not sure if when it says "laundry room". Does it mean the laundry area is shared or not. If not, do u have to get your own washing machine and dryer or do they provide it?
And...when it says "High-speed internet connection available", do you have to pay for it or is included in the rent?
And...
Is water,gas,and electric included in the rent or seperate?
Thanks.
Answers:
That would probably mean shared. If you're looking for one inside your apartment, try to find one with "W/D hookups". That only means that you are able to put a washer and dryer in your house, it doesn't mean they are included.
sounds like shared area . coin operated laundry room.
Unless the ad says specifically that a washer/dryer are included, do not assume that they are. Hi-speed internet connection available means that the unit is wired, but you have to pay for a provider. As to water, gas and electric - unless it says it is included, then do not assume. You can always call and ask.
You share the laundry room with other tenants but they provide the washer and dryers. High speed internet is available but you have to pay for it. Utilities are usually seperate it would say in the ad if they were included.
I've lived in alot of rentals and only one has had a washer/drier when listed having a laundry room. As far as your other questions you need to get the answer from your future landlord. Look at the contract FIRST.
When it says laundry room that means there is a seperate communal laundry room. So you will have to pay for any laundry, instead of having to go out to a laundermat. If it says washer and dryer, then it usually means there is one in your unit. You will have to pay for your own gas and electric. Water is usually included, but ask. Internet is available, but you will have to pay for wi-fi
