Questions
Should I renew my lease or move in Dallas?
Compare your renewal offer with what similar places nearby cost this week after free rent, then take off what moving would cost you. If you'd still save a few hundred dollars over a year, it's worth shopping around.
Why are new leases often cheaper than renewals?
Buildings give free rent to fill empty homes, and a renewal usually doesn't come with it. Counting free rent, a new place can cost less than staying.
Can I ask my building to lower a renewal offer?
Yes. Show the office what similar homes nearby cost this week. Some will match or meet you in the middle, some won't.
How much does it cost to move apartments in Dallas?
That comes down to movers, the new deposit and fees, and time off work. Put in your own guess, and the calculator takes it off the savings.
