Agree that keeping the home in order makes everything easier, i.e. don’t lose your keys and then be late to class or an interview.

Garbage disposals break easily, be care what you put in the sink (ideally just water). certainly no lemon seeds or coffee beans.

Also as others said: no grease down the sink, have a spare key in the car or with someone you trust, document everything, and if any issues come up, deal with them immediately. Like if you see a leak or smell something funky, contact the landlord and then follow up regularly until they deal with it.
