The PLEA: RENT: The Student's Guide

Introduction - Your Home Is Whose Castle?

Renting a place to live involves more than paying the landlord each month. Both landlords and tenants have rights. This means that there’s lots of things first-time renters need to know. For example,

  • When can the landlord enter your place?
  • Are you allowed pets?
  • Can the rent be raised?
  • Are you allowed any visitor you like?

This issue of The PLEA will help answer several introductory questions about renting your first home.

Teachers! Check out PLEA’s new full-length Rent: The Teacher’s Resource. Written for Life Transitions 20/30, its eight lessons can be used to fulfill all the Indicators for Module 15: Housing.
