Negotiate
Before you sign a lease or renew your lease, take the time to talk to your landlord and try negotiating. Oftentimes if you are willing to sign a longer lease, your landlord may be willing to reduce your monthly rent. If he or she doesn't seem receptive to lowering your monthly rent, try getting him or her to include utilities or parking in your rent.
与房主协商
在你签下合约或续签合约之前，花点时间跟你的房主协商一下。通常情况下如果你愿意签较长的租约，你的房主可能会给你减一些月租。如果他/她不太愿意给你减月租，那你可以试试让他/她包水电费或停车费。
