Help! How to rent a house
    #15670043 -

Hello, I am a young person living with young people.

Although we are young, our choices and ways of living of very alternative to those within such age group.

With such said, my friend/roomies/companions/team is looking for a house.

We are willing to rent to rent, rent to own, etc: but here's the catch:















This group of people is looking to hear tips and advice from experienced renters.

ALSO, if one chooses to rent to own, or rent to rent what are some precautions to advise of as far as privacy is concerned?

For example, we wouldn't want the landlords walking in on a certain room.



Overall speaking, my question is held quite broad and it's difficult to give many details. On the other hand, we are looking (a group) for a house where we have maximum privacy from other people.

We are looking to rent to rent but if it takes renting to own just to find that certain house we are willing to make the commitment.

I don't exactly know where to go to answer my own questions.

  • How do I establish good personal connections with land lords?
  • What is the best region [in state] (demographically speaking) to find homes that aren't ran down but have plenty of privacy? Perhaps even cheaper?
  • If I'm looking for more privacy, security should I stay out of busy towns?
  • I'm young and the people I live with are young. We really stand out because we "look young", but don't "act young".
  • I'm trying to find the right house with the right land lord to have the right amount of privacy at the right price -- how should I approach this, if possible?
  • How do I keep landlords and nosy people away from my home or worse yet -- inside?


I'm going to presume the majority of you reading this understand why I am being so particular.

With that said, thank you for any advice.

Honestly if your concerned about privacy I would attempt to purchase property and not rent. I never feel right about renting as it is not truley my personal castle so to speak. Xen how much cash do you have at your disposal?

My friends and I enjoy living a low key type of lifestyle without being bothered or asked questions.

We enjoy our privacy and value seclusion and it's upmost level.

If I want to find say an "off beat" house, where should I look (in general)?

I apologize for the lack of absolute direction this thread has but I'm hoping a couple of you feel where I am coming from.

I would personally look into buying a house in a rural area as people in the country "genrally" mind there own business for the most part.

I would look towards renting from a rental agency. My experience with two different rental agencies in different states is that they don't care as long as you pay your rent on time. What you have to be concerned about is maintenance issues, that is generally the only time you will have the rental people in or near your residence.

houses are usually cheap if you look here and it would be best to buy

Yo Op, your not going to want to rent if you NEED absolute privacy.....

NOw houses/trailers inthe country do provide much more privacy, as country folk do tend to follow the "mind ya business"mantra of the country...

No. No, man. Shit, no man.  I believe you'd get your ass kicked sayin' somethin' like that man.

#1 way to keep the landlord away:  Make sure your rent is paid in full, on time, every time.

Look for a house that's very rural.  If the neighbors think your being sketchy, or you're bringing attention to yourselves (loud parties, lots of shit laying around the yards, etc.) they probably have the landlord on speed dial.
