There are many reasons why people may be looking for Chico or Redding rental properties to call home. There are many benefits to rental living. Here are a few life circumstances that may be leading you in that direction – or maybe you’re already there.

Saying “I Do”

If you’re engaged or recently got hitched then you two lovebirds want a place of your own to call home. Renting can allow you to save for your first house. Plus, you can focus on each other instead of worrying about the demands owning a home brings, like maintenance, yard work, and property taxes.

On Your Own at Last (or Again)

Rental living is ideal if you’re a college student who's been living at home but is ready to leave the nest and get your first apartment; you're just ready to be out on your own, or you're at place in life that requires you to start over again. You may just not be sure what the next couple years will bring but need your space - not a commitment. 

Starting a New Job

You accepted a great opportunity in a new town, but you have exactly one month and no extra time to lock in a new place, pack, and move. Good news for you is that you can search for  rental properties online. Just click here to filter available apartments by property type, number of bedrooms, and the minimum and maximum rent you’re willing to pay. You can even take virtual video tours of some of the apartments to see them first hand. 

You’re Happy Where You Are

Many people just like the perks of rental living in Chico or Redding. You don’t have to worry about a mortgage or property taxes. If something breaks you can call maintenance to fix it. You have access to great amenities like a swimming pool, Jacuzzi, fitness center, covered parking, paid garbage, neighbors nearby, and friendly property managers. Maybe best of all, you don't have to do yard work or clean the gutters out. You like the simplicity of rental living because it allows you to focus on other things in life.
