What are the expenses of living in an apartment? What obligations come with signing on the dotted line? Is it good to have roommates? This video explains to first-time renters how to locate, lease, and set up an apartment while avoiding common problems. They'll learn about dealing with rental agents, evaluating a unit's condition, reading leases, getting renters' insurance, having the utilities turned on, and handling the roommate option. Information on moving and finding furniture on a budget is also included. Viewable/printable discussion questions are available online.
