Red Flags for Renters to Watch Out For

19. Renters must pay attention to poorly insulated windows.

Windows are meant to keep heat in and keep the cold out in winter, or vice versa in the summer. Their seals around them and doors should always be airtight. The only way warmth or coolness should be able to get through is when they are open. When a window is old, broken, or its seal fails, it can dramatically alter the temperature of the interior of the unit it belongs to. Meaning, bills will rise unexpectedly, when in the end, it could be avoided.
