Ok, here's hoping I've posted this in the correct section. I hope to start renting a new condo in the fall. A few questions:
1) Most rental listings say "extras" for appliances -- does this mean one pays extra for these to be included in the rent, or are they included in the rental price?
2) This leads me to the next question. If I hate the appliances which are in the condo, and want to bring my own into the condo, is it standard practice that the lessor (landlord/landlady) gets those appliances removed and then I as lessee (tenant) negotiate a new rental rate with him/her based on the exclusion of these appliances?
Anybody who can chime in on these issues, please do. For example, one condo I looked at - great location - but fridge without ice-maker and lack of appliances' quality that is a bit disappointing. And this was at a Remax listing, lol. I'd really like to bring in my own fridge, microwave, washer/dryer, etc., but of course whether there would be a discounted rental rate for the condo then would be my big concern.
Cheers in advance,
B.
