*Before You Sign the Lease: Laws, Landlords, and Living with Roommates*– 
Tuesday, April 21 / Room 76-156 (David H. Koch Institute)

Explore the important legal and relationship facts you need to know 
about renting an apartment in the greater Boston Area. Many people do 
not know their basic rights and responsibilities as tenants when renting 
an apartment. What do you do when your heat isn’t working? How do you 
know if someone will make a good roommate? In this seminar, you will 
learn about all the do’s and don’ts of the renting process, including 
what to look for in a landlord, a broker, roommates, and the condition 
of the apartment. You will also learn about moving in, moving out, and 
budgeting for savings, utilities, and parking, as well as important 
health and safety codes and laws.
