Renter questions for ZCTA 23608
Should I look into internet before signing a lease in a mid-sized apartment building?
Yes, when you already know the unit. Ask the property manager which provider is set up there, then check that unit with Cox Internet and Verizon Fios.
What if the leasing office says residents arrange their own service?
Ask whether installers have an approved route into the building and whether a new outlet inside the unit needs permission. Get the answer in writing if you can.
Does a short stay change the address check?
No. Enter the unit number each time, even for a short lease, and note any difference between companies.
