Not too far from the Big Apple is a place called Tenafly, a great New Jersey city that is both a commuter town and a destination unto itself. Tenafly, like most other places in the area, was settled by the Dutch. The town established itself in the 17th century, and was incorporated as an official "borough" in 1894. Today, the borough has grown into a thriving town, with tons of entertainment, dining, shopping and business choices (as if you needed more of those being so close to New York City!) People move to Tenafly for a lower cost of living than nearby New York, and they also move for a bit more relaxation. It's quite a desirable place to live, in fact. New Jersey Monthly named it the 65th best place to live in the state. That might sound high but there are tons of places in New Jersey to call home!

Moving to Tenafly

So, you're thinking of moving to the New York City area, and Tenafly is the place you've decided to search for rental apartments. Congratulations, then! You'll definitely be able to find apartments for rent in Tenafly, and they're going to be loads cheaper than the ones you'd find in Manhattan and Brooklyn (maybe even Queens, too). However, you're going to have to search hard. Somewhere affordable to live that is near New York is super hard to come by, so finding the perfect apartment for rent will be no walk in Central Park. If you want to secure the apartment of your dreams, you'll need to come prepared. And all it takes is a little studying and preparation to come out on top of the game.

The first step is to gather all the documents you'll need to put in a leasing application. The point of a leasing application is to convince a landlord both that you are a financially responsible person, and that you'll be an awesome tenant. To prove your financial stability, you'll want to bring documents like bank statements, tax returns, pay stubs, proof of income or a letter of employment. These things assure the landlord that you'll have enough money to pay rent when rent is due. To prove how good you are personally, you'll want to get letters of reference from former landlords who can attest to what a great a tenant you were. You'll also want to gather any personal references in case landlords want to investigate further. If you have any worry about your financial stability as a renter, consider getting a guarantor. A guarantor has more money than you do and guarantees your apartment financially. This means that if you're not able to pay rent or something happens to the apartment (and is your fault) and you can't pay for it, there's someone in the picture who can! If you need a guarantor, consider asking a parent, relative, or a friend who you trust and feel close to.

Now, once you've gathered your documents prepare to make a deposit on the apartment. A deposit usually includes at least a month's rent and an extra security deposit in the amount of one month's rent. Having the deposit ready in your account will allow you to secure rental houses you love the minute you see them, making sure you don't lose out to any other potential renters. Start saving your pennies when you know you're going to have to move. Not only do you need cash for deposit and rent, but the cost of moving is pretty high, too!
