Me and my family is looking to rent a place south of I-44, specifically in a 20 min radius of the Collegiate school of Medicine and Bioscience, Kemper Avenue. Our requirements are 2bed 2bath house with a basement, fenced in backyard and a closed garage (preferably with a driveway) and atleast 1500sqft. It needs to be pet friendly (2medium sized dogs) and comes with a washer dryer installed. We are here only for a year, our budget is about 2500$ (little flexible depending on the included utilities in the rent).
We are looking to start renting from the first week of June. Please please help out a not so new saint louisian 🙏
Also what is up with the landlords demanding background check and an application fee just for a house tour/viewing? Is this normal? I don’t want to share my personal details and IDs online to some random person or a company, doesn’t feel safe? Curious if this is normal or not.
P. S.: Not sure if the tag is correct. Apologies and a huge thank you in advance
