Housing & Community Resources in Eagle and Summit County

Posted On: 03/20/2024

As for most resort towns, finding affordable housing in the area can be challenging, depending on your needs and time of year. Please give yourself adequate time and resources when seeking housing especially during fall and winter months.

Here are some tips to help you avoid some of the mistakes that can be made while searching for housing:

> Be aware of offers that seem too good to be true. This is especially true if it involves sending money to a third party. In these circumstances, it’s probably not legitimate.

> Get recommendations from people you know. This way you are more likely to deal with reputable agencies or landlords.

> Do not give up your money too quickly. No money should change hand until the property has actually been viewed and rented.

> Be careful when looking online. There have been reported cases where a renter found the same pictures of an apartment for rent but at a different address. Or sometimes, the property doesn’t exist at all.

> Sign and find out the terms of your lease. There have been reported cases a renter found the same pictures of an apartment for rent but at a different address. Or sometimes, the property doesn’t exist at all.

> Sign and find out the terms of your lease. It’s always a good idea to read the fine print on your rental contract and find out if there is a penalty for early termination of your lease.

> Do a reasonableness check on rates for similar properties in the same area. If the seems to low, do more research.

> Get everything in writing. Make sure all communication with your landlord is in writing form including payment transfers and start/end dates of tenancy.
