To lease an apartment with bad credit, one should be prepared to put up a larger deposit, demonstrate strong income, and provide letters from previous employers or landlords, says U.S. News World Report. Other strategies include getting a co-signer and limiting the search to independent landlords.

The disadvantages of including bills when renting out an apartment include having no control over renters' use of facilities for which the landlord is paying, states The Educated Landlord. In addition, if bills are added to the cost of the rent, the higher rental price may discourage potential renters.

Both tenants and landlords use lease termination letters to end rental agreements and these letters should state the reasons for ending the lease within the proper notice period and according to the requirements of the lease agreement, as well as the availability of the property. Either party can terminate a lease as long they follow the process outlined in the rental agreement.
