Lemon Hill is located in Southern Sacramento, smack dab between the southwestern and southeastern quadrants of the city. Do you want California living with a big city feel? While it's certainly no Los Angeles, Lemon Hill does provide you access with a town that is easy and close to one of Northern California's metropolitan hubs (and California's capital!), while still affording you living that feels suburban and residential. If you're considering moving to Lemon Hill, grab your sunglasses and head to Cali! The weather's nice year round there, so you'll enjoy the apartment hunt no matter what time of year you decide to do it in.

Moving to Lemon Hill

If you've decided Lemon Hill is the part of the world that you're going to call home, then head on out there and look for rental properties there. There are a plethora of rental homes in Lemon Hill, since it is an option for affordable housing in the Sacramento area. There's a range of sizes and spaces in rental options here, starting from small studios to 2 bedroom apartments with all paid utilities. To start your housing hunt in Lemon Hill, begin by preparing to submit a rental application. There are lots of parts to an application, so make sure you're thoroughly prepared before you start to move! Some things you'll definitely need are copies of your identification cards and documents, pay stubs, bank statements, tax returns, proof of income, proof of employment and more. You'll also want to line up references--both personal and professional. Your landlord is going to want to know that he or she is renting to a dependable, trustworthy person who will pay his or her rent on time! Finally, consider getting in contact with previous landlords for a letter of recommendation. After all, there's no one better to prove that you're a good person to rent to than a person who has already rented to you!

Another important thing to prepare for a move is the cost. Moving itself is expensive. Also, when renting, you're going to need to put down a deposit in order to secure a place. Sometimes, deposits are as little as one month's rent. Other times, landlords will ask for as much as three month's rent upfront. If you have any hesitations financially, consider renting with a guarantor. A guarantor is someone who's a bit more financially stable than you, who will be on the lease with you and financially guarantee the apartment. Having a guarantor will ease a landlord's mind and ensure that you are going to be financially capable of paying for the apartment no matter what happens.
