List of Priorities in finding a place to rent!

My girlfriend and I are looking for another house to rent and upon looking, we needed to set guide lines about what are needs and wants in a house we wish to rent. Needs are requirements, wants are negotiable for the right house. I am not a rich man and I can imagine we will be moving for the next few years so I will refer back to this list so we don't need to do it again. And for those folks out there, this is a nice list to get you started.

NEEDS

  1. Two bedrooms - One master and one computer room.  Sure is amazing, 10 years ago people didn't need a computer room and now they need it.
  2. Allow pets - We have a dog named Isabella (Husky mix)
  3. Safe place with very little crime
  4. Needs to be below $800.00.
  5. Needs washer and dryer hookups.
  6. Must include major kitchen appliances
  7. Must have High Speed Internet available in the area

WANTS

  1. A Garage
  2. A yard - preferably a fenced yard for our dog.
  3. Two Bathrooms
  4. Within a 30 minute commute (willing to stretch)
  5. Like to have room for eating area (we currently eat at a bar in the house)
  6. Not on a busy road.
  7. lawn maintenance would be nice
  8. City water, no egg water please!
  9. A kitchen pantry, and plenty of kitchen cabinets
  10. Eco-friendly (energy saving measures)

I imagine that we will be adding to this list until we actually buy a house, but for right now we are ready for another place.
