Housing Forms
Off Campus Programs and Services has the following forms and information to assist students with their housing needs.
- New Student's Guide to Living off Campus
Information for transfer, graduate or international students planning to live off campus in the Binghamton area. - Housing Search Checklist
Take this handy checklist with you when you go to inspect a prospective apartment. It itemizes a list of major and minor issues that may present problems in the future. - Damage Checklist
Use this form when you move into your home as a protection against the loss of your security deposit. NOTE: If you sign a lease while another tenant currently resides at the dwelling, add a statement to your lease explaining the damage checklist is a part of the agreement when you move in. - Rental Agreement
If you are interested in renting from month-to-month rather than leasing for the year, the Rental Agreement is an example of a fair and reasonable contract. It is not necessarily the same contract your landlord uses, but the Rental Agreement contains protection for both you and your landlord during the rental period. - Sample Lease
While the landowner from whom you rent may use a different lease, the sample lease is an example of a fair and equitable contract. You may wish to compare it with any you consider. - Consent to Sublease
You may wish to sublet your apartment or home at some time during your tenancy. Use this Consent to Sublease form to protect your rights as a primary tenant.
