40 Apartments for Rent with Hardwood Floors

In Glasgow, preserving history and a unique culture is valued. Yet that hasn't stopped the development of a chain restaurants and coffee shops. How can you avoid it, right? Anyway, this town of 14,303 does still make a point of keeping its own flavor. It may be often grouped with Bear or Newark, but that doesn't take away from the fact it's its own distinct place. Just west of the historic Delaware River, historic homes, great parks, and local eateries show that Glasgow isn't your run-of-the-mill suburb. While the facade of huge chain retailers certainly exists, the real Glasgow satisfies if you seek it. That is what keeps residents not only here, but also loving it. See more

Scoring an apartment with hardwood floors can be a big win for Glasgow renters. They`re typically a beautiful addition to your space. They’re also easier to clean and sweep, particularly if you have pets.

However, there are some downsides. Hardwood floors carry sounds. They can also make your apartment noisy for your roommates and downstairs neighbors.

Ask the landlord or property manager about the hardwood floors before signing a lease. Are they actually hardwood or a popular composite alternative? The latter is probably easier to clean and care for than the real thing.

It’s also important to ask about who’s responsible for any damage to the floors and what that entails. Your security deposit could take a hit from scratches, dents, and other damage.

Consider the type of climate you live in. Hardwood floors typically don’t fare well in damp climates full of moisture. Stains and buckling are common in hardwood floors after rain flooding or excessive moisture.

However, hardwood floors can be ideal for dry climates or sunny areas for renters who love the way they look.
