Tips for renting in Concord, NC

In Concord, NC, a tenant is responsible for the batteries in a fire alarm, but must notify the landlord in writing whenever any fire alarm repairs are needed. If you are moving from Charlotte to Concord, be prepared to pay even less in utilities than you already do, but considerably more for gas.

Speaking of paying bills, if you ever find yourself in a pinch when the rent is due, see if you can work out a temporary agreement with your landlord. Concord is still part of North Carolina, after all – a region known for its hospitality – which means that they will most likely allow you to make a partial payment, or even postpone the rent.
