What does last month's rent and mean and why is it called for if the tenets weren't even living that last month?
I'm not on my own yet but I know if someone asked me to pay for last month's rent and I wasn't living there last month then I would say heck no! Is it paying for the previous renters or damage or something?

Do you mean the term "putting down first and last months rent"?

I'll just assume thats what you mean emotion_yatta
It just means you pay 2 months rent before you move in for the first and last months: When you move in your first month is payed and when you are ready to move out your last month is paid. first and last months rent. A security for them wherever you are moving in.

No problem! 4laugh and don't feel bad my bf had to explain to me only a few months ago so it was relatively fresh in my mind.
Are you looking for apartments right now? I wish you the best! It can be scary being on your own so I hear heh I honestly haven't been completely on my own before, I think I'd be nervous but excited! XD

I've never had to do that for any of the places I've rented from ~
They all wanted a damage deposit (half of a month's rent) straight up, but that was it. I can see how first and last months rent would be convenient, but wow that's a lot to pay up front!

No I'm not looking right now. I just always wondered about it.

Would the damage deposit mean that if there was damage to your room then they would pay for it with the deposit?

Yep, exactly! When it's time for you to move out, the landlord will review the state of your apartment/suite/whatever and determine how much of the deposit they'll need to cover damages, and how much you'll get back. :0)

Oh wow, but they don't charge you for things like the sink not working or or something going wrong with the shower/bath do they?

Oh no, of course not. :03 That is their responsibility to fix.
They'll charge you for things like wrecking the paint or floors, or just leaving things generally yucky.

Oh good! Then I'll pick my roommate wisely when it comes time I move out. Which probably won't be until 2014.
