New Hampshire has a number of large cities: most notably, Manchester, Nashua, Concord, Portsmouth, and Rochester, and as a result there are quite a few apartments for rent in NH. Much of the buildings in these cities are older and thus you will often find unique apartments converted from large single family homes. There are also quite a few converted mill buildings that provide more "rental complex" living, with amenities like pools, fitness centers, and meeting rooms. Depending upon the type of living you prefer there will be plenty to choose from.
Another type of building are what is referred to as multi-family buildings and were constructed solely for the purpose of rental housing. They usually are 3 and 4 unit buildings and sometimes get as large as 12 units.
If you are looking for less of a "tenant/rental" environment then you'll most likely want to find a single family home or detached condo to rent. Don't worry, as there is usually ample homes available to choose from. Many times they are provided by owners who have relocated and cannot sell the home or by investors that may be interested in offering a rent-to-own option. Either way there should be many nice homes available without the commitment to purchase.
I can offer a lot of advice being a landlord and former tenant and I would suggest that those who are considering shopping for NH rentals first decide on the location where they'd like to live. The first thing you'll want to do is decide what your monthly budget is, including heating, electrical, parking and other utilities you'll need. It is not uncommon for rental properties to include some or all of these utilities so make sure you find out in advance which ones are or are not included. After you have this number, figure out what area you'd like to live in. Once you have a few apartments you've looked at, it's a good idea to talk to the landlord or owner to find out how maintenance and tenant issues are handled. II might also recommend speaking to other tenants in the building to see how they like living there. Many times an owner doesn't think to give you all the details and you may find out the hard way after you move in.
Over all you'll find plenty of great apartments for rent in NH. I would highly recommend getting the help of a real estate agent to find a place to live. They'll have a good idea of what's available and which neighborhoods in the area have what you're looking for. They are also knowledgeable about tenant laws that are there to help you. Best of all they will usually be paid by the landlord so their services will be free to you.
