How much can I afford in rent?

Determining how much you can afford for rent is an essential step in the rental search process, as it helps to ensure that you select a property that aligns with your financial situation. It is crucial as a prospective renter to evaluate your finances and consider factors such as utilities, transportation, and lifestyle expenses when deciding on an affordable rent amount. By doing so, you can confidently choose a rental property that meets your needs without causing financial strain.

What percentage of my income should go to rent?

A common rule of thumb is the 30% rule, which suggests that a person should allocate approximately 30% of their gross monthly income towards rent. However, this percentage may vary depending on individual circumstances, such as debt, living expenses, and savings goals.
