Only you can know what you want when it is time to find a new place to rent. Maybe you like being in an apartment and having someone nearby all the time, or you would prefer to have a single-family home and spread out. And there are so many options in between for you to choose as well. If you have heard about some of the build to rent properties and communities, you may be curious about them and whether they are the right place for you to call home.

To help you determine whether one of these communities is right for you, take a drive through one of them and look around. Do you like the type of community that is available there or are you a little turned off by all the cookie-cutter homes that are going to look the same as one another. Then take a look at some of the amenities and determine whether they are ones you like or ones you will ever use while living there.

You will also have to take a look at the location. Many of these communities are going to be closer to the suburbs compared to some apartments. You will have to consider whether you like to travel that far to get anywhere or if you would rather go with an apartment that is closer to all the fun. This can be a big decision to consider, so think it through.

One of the biggest things to consider is how much you can afford for the apartment. Sometimes these communities can be more expensive to move into, and if your budget is not big enough and you do not make enough income for it, then this may not be a good place to call home. For the most part, you should never spend more than 30% of your income on rent and if you can get the rent to even less of your income, that is better. After you know how much you bring in for income each month, you can then take a look at the rent in these BTR communities and see if you can afford it.
