In simple you should sort & filter your requirements. Local website will also helpful to find your requirement like apartment for rents, rooms, rental, home for rent, etc.
You may consider bellow factors, before booking any viewings or calling any listings:

BUDGET
How much amount you can afford as your monthly rent? If you found this question, you can easily sort your apartment, house, etc. according to your budget. You should check your bank book, take calculus and make an average expenditure, before booking a luxury apartment. You should check the expenses like utilities, food, transportation, school fee and other payments. So, if you are booking an apartment is ready to pay well, but remember about the other expenses and your savings.

FURNISHED & UNFURNISHED
You have advantage & some disadvantage with both options, but it’s depend on you what you will choose. If you go with furnished rental property you don’t need to carry your furniture, gas stove, wardrobe, refrigerator, etc. just need your suite case with your clothes & personal items. In unfurnished rental property you have carried your all of household things, but sometimes you got a major appliance like fridge, stove, etc. In both furnished & unfurnished homes for rent, apartments, houses, etc. comes with different amounts of rents.
 
NEIGHBORHOOD
Did you check around your apartment? May be apartment is best according to your need, but sometimes surrounding of your apartment is not good. So you have to take a walk around and see whether a neighborhood is according to your need or not. Like greenery, parks may feel relaxed, & stores, medical centres, transportation, etc. within walking distance, because it saves time and make comfortable.
 
PETS POLICY
If you’re a pet lover or a pet owner, your landlord may have issue with your pet. Because sometimes landlord doesn’t allow pets in their apartment, so solve these issues there is a pet policy for renters who have pets. Search for those home rentals which allow your pets but they have some terms & conditions or they may ask for some security and you should also agree for pet policy, to allow your pet in their rental property. 
 
COMMUTE
You should check which is the best way of transportation to reach office, school, restaurant, etc. because some time it becomes more expensive to commute from your apartment to your destination, so keep in mind before moving to an apartment. & you should also check about the traffic during peak hour mainly when people going to the office.
 
PARKING
If you a vehicle owner you should check on the parking spot. You should refer for apartment with parking space, because if you have a vehicle or you are planning to buy it, go for those rental property which comes with parking. And also check the cost of parking is included with the rent or not? There is a street parking or not because your family, friends, colleagues, boss may have their own vehicle and they need a parking space when they visited to your apartment.

For renters, there are several problems which waited for them, when they are searching property and move into a new rental property. But it's become easier when your landlord or homeowner is good and helping in nature. Not all landlords are equal, some of them are un-treatable and some are too nice. A pleasant landlord will always help you out in any condition and try to save your money. A good landlord will nicely treat with their tenants which will create a good and healthy relationship between both tenants and landlords but some of landlords are opposite. So there are some tips to identify good landlords.
​

• They provide useful information and more
  ​Moving or relocating to the new Rental Property is hectic, but it becomes more stressful when the location is unfamiliar or unknown to tenants. A good landlord will provide all information related to the new location or maybe they include electronic appliances, heat internet, cable, emergency numbers, etc. which can be helpful for tenants. Some good landlord will offer some gifts for new tenants of their homes for rent, as well as general information related to neighbourhood.

 

• Helping in nature
  A good landlord will always help their tenants during the application process of rental property. If landlord are there to help you it become easier to complete all the tasks. If you have an issues with your neighbour tell your landlord they will sort your issues , actually a good landlord will there to help and sort your issues relates to rental property.

 

• Provide essentials on move-in day
  On day of move-in, you just pack your things and move to a new destination and don't know which box contained which item. It's become too helpful when your landlord provides some useful items like travel size bar of soap, toilet paper, roll of a paper, towel and a shower liner. If your landlord provides these things as gift then be thankful to them because they really care about their tenants.

 

• Forgive late payment charges
  A good person has several features and one of them is forgiveness. A landlord gets tenants for business purpose only, because they just need their rent or in the case of tenants will unable to pay rent on time they will charge late fees. But a good landlord will understand your problem and wave off to their extra late fee charge once in awhile and neglect the terms and conditions of lease for tenants and help to save their money. And after that don't blame your landlord that he/she is a greedy person, because late payment charges can exempt for one time only not for twice otherwise their business of renting from home rentals can be goes down because of late payment renters.

 

• Good listener
  ​The one of the biggest problems of tenants to landlords is that they will not listen to their issues. A landlord want to listen to issues from renters related to Rental Property, they want to get rid off from renter's who will complain again and again. A good landlord will always listen tenant problem and try to sort it as soon as possible and ask to renter about their problems related to rental property.

​

• They offer an “out”
  When you have to leave the Rental Property before lease and Rental agreement expires due to transfer, quit job, job loss, etc. They take all the responsibility of lease and rental agreement terms and conditions, but legally landlord can hold you responsible for breaking of lease and rental agreement till landlord can get found another tenant. But a good landlord will understand your problem and take responsibility for them-selves and forgive the penalties and charges.

​Most of the public, including tenants and landlords, don't know the exact difference between a rental agreement and lease. It looks unimportant to us, by knowing the difference between a rental agreement and lease we may deliver some relief from the complexion of how the tenancy is carried out.

ABOUT LEASE AGREEMENT
The lease will allow tenants to occupy the rental property for a specific time limit. Length of lease can be more than one year with option of renewal for another year. A lease can be only for six months, depending upon the need of tenant's and availability of landlords Rental Property. But sometimes lease comes with greater security deposits as long as renters pay the rent or abide by lease agreement terms and conditions by doing signature on it.
Once lease accepted and signed by both tenants and landlords, it cannot be changed, when both parties will agree to make some changes then it can be updated otherwise not single personality can have the lease.
A lease may also mean that renter's cannot leave the rental property with pending payments and due rent. If they do so, they break the lease and they will have to pay penalties contained within in the lease or in provincial tenancy laws. For example: a tenant and landlord will break the lease when they both agree, it is best if the agreement is written and signed by both parties, if one of the party either tenant or landlord breaks the lease, then another have right to use the laws and assign the new unit.

ABOUT RENTAL AGREEMENT
The rental agreement is used when landlords and tenants are agreeing to carry out for short term rental only. Rental agreements are generally for one month duration and should be renewed after completion of 30 days or 1 month. The major importance of rental agreement is that they can change frequently, a landlord or tenant may suggest for addition or revision for agreement for every month.

Building Inspections:

If this happens on regular basis then you should take some steps against renters. 
 
Strict From Start
Late payment is the one of big issues, for landlords and most of landlords are suffering from these issues. While you get in new tenants or renters, you should be strict about the rent and mention your conditions on the rental agreement about late payment charges or any other penalties related to late payments. There too many renters who are very well trained to handle these conditions and easily find the weakness of landlords which is used the renters while landlords visit for rent collection. So it is better to make distance from renters, and treat them like professionals and also be strict for rent collection on specific time.  
 
Communication
According to renters, landlord is a person who is visit to their homes for rent collection only, or sends money to them. Landlords should encourage the communication to renters so that they should be easily communicate to landlords without any hesitation. A perfect renters will never hesitate or afraid from landlord whether they visit for inspection of rent collection. A renter should be able enough to meet landlord and make face to face on regular basis. So as a landlord, you should decrease the communication between landlord or tenants, which will help to avoid the late payment and excuses and enhance the relationship between landlord and renters.
 
Be Professional
It is very frustrating task of rent collection, and it becomes more frustrating when your tenant will refuse to rent on time and make several excuse. When a landlord will provide perfect home rental then its renter responsibility to pay rent on time.  As a landlord, you should be treat your renter like professional without losing your anger.

BUY MORE THAN NEED
As renters, we purchase less items as per our need, but in opposite we should purchase in bulk, for those items which use in daily routine and consumes quickly. Like eatable items which can be store for long times, soap & detergents, toilet papers, etc. It will raise the payment but also get best deals and discount on them. If you have home rentals and have anothermate then it is good to buy in bulk because payment bill is going to be spilt or share by your roommates. 
 
CONSUME LESS ELECTRICITY
Electricity is that bill which can consume a huge part of your payments, so it is better to switch off or shut down those items which are not in use. You should invest in power strips for electronic items, use fluorescent light bulbs, etc. As landlords, you have to invest in tenant rental property to keep you renter by installing some power saver appliances.
