To dream that you rent a house, is a sign that you will enter into new contracts, which will prove profitable. To fail to rent out property, denotes that there will be much inactivity in business. To pay rent, signifies that your financial interest will be satisfactory. If you can't pay your rent, it is unlucky for you, as you will see a falling off in trade, and social pleasures will be of little benefit.
