    basic and then there is crap

    looking at a few videos of places to rent over in the phils and i am thinking wow my garden shed looks better then that, yes it may be bigger but there has to be a limit to what we could live in i am sure,
    You could make it better but surely if you are renting you are only improving it for the owners not yourself,

    you make an agreement in the rental contract, that any improvments you made. ie materials used to improve (can be toilet, kitchen sink, partition walls,plyboard ect, is yours and when you leave you take it with you,

    the other option, agreement that the costs of improvments are deducted from the rent

    The problem is, getting your landlord to agree!

    Normally, the improvements you make on the rented house will be left behind to the owner. I suggest that you dont do major renovation or improvements if you will just rent a property.

    Sometimes you don't.

    There's many a nightmare potential waiting for folks new to renting in the Paradise islands
    if they haven't done their homework..
