Currently, many people are choosing to live in rented properties due to lifestyle, convenience, security, comfort, among other characteristics that can make renting attractive.
However, there is a very common question asked by those who live or think about living in rented apartments. How to leave the place with our personality? How do we deal with things we can't change? How to organize money to improve the environment? What if we don't have money for big changes?
With that in mind, we’ve come up with some tips that can help you with these decisions:
1 - Set aside a budget and make a list of items to buy
Make a list of everything you need and be honest with yourself about your finances, dividing your money so you know exactly how much you can spend before you buy anything. This way, you avoid spending too much on one item and ending up without money for others that are also important for the final look of the room.
2 – Change what can be changed
There are things that can be changed in a rented apartment that make a big difference. For example: Painting the walls, changing cabinet handles, changing cold light bulbs for warm ones, putting a cover on the sofa, changing light fixtures that aren't cool and changing the curtains are all ways to make a room cooler. Try to negotiate with the property owner through the real estate agency to make improvements and check the possibility of major changes.
3 - Don't worry about anything you don't have the option to change
Don't worry! Redirect your focus with possible changes so that they gain more protagonism, thus bringing your personality to the environment.
4 - Keep in mind that the main thing should be what you can take with you.
This is a very important rule in this process, after all, good items can be taken and used in different places. Be it the furniture, the decoration, always something that can be reused, thus avoiding expenses and providing practicality if a change occurs.
Finally, don't forget that your home is more than a simple environment, it is your place of refuge and also the place where you will live incredible moments alone, with your family and with your friends. And also remember that beauty can come in different forms, and does not always require huge costs.
