DC Renters, What Can't You Live Without?
A friend of UrbanTurf’s recently told us that when he was looking for a new place to rent a few months ago, the feature that he wanted most was an in-unit washer/dryer. In fact, it got to the point where he wouldn’t even consider a place without one.
Given the tightness of DC’s rental market, we imagine that most folks out there looking for a place are willing to make compromises, but our friend’s criteria did pique our curiosity to see what our readers can’t live without when they are shopping for a rental (price and location aside).
All you renters out there, choose from the list below (or add your own) and let us know in the comments what you absolutely couldn’t live without in your apartment.
- Parking space
- In-unit washer/dryer
- Dishwasher
- Central A/C
- Building gym
- Pool
- Rooftop deck
- Doorman
- Pet friendly
