Recall how to rent a house in Beijing when you just graduated to share the experience of how to rent an affordable house, I think the first thing is not. I think the first thing is not to find an intermediary, not to find an intermediary because the intermediary has to pay at least half a month to a month's rent for the intermediary fee. Can directly find the landlord or subletting people is the best, in this case that a brokerage fee can be exempted, if you are lucky, the body can also send a few more days to a month's time you first live. Then exactly how to rent what kind of channels? I'll start with
1. Douban rental group.
You can start by searching for the location of the house you want to rent above the Douban ah, neighborhood keywords to see if there is a turn. If you can't find it, you can go to one of those Beijing rental groups. Of course, there may be an agent there, but there may be some landlords or sublet listings on there. The above basically will have contact information, if not you can send a private chat, basically can find and each other to contact, there is no there is not.
2. Baidu bar or Baidu-related communities.
It is also similar to the operation of Douban search keywords, or in the kind of large Beijing rental group above. The other thing is that there are a lot of communities like QQ, so you can add them and ask around.
3. Offline personal search.
Previously, a friend of mine was looking for an intermediary to look at the listings in his Xinyi neighborhood, and then after the intermediary left, he skipped around the neighborhood to see if he could find any tenants or owners in the neighborhood, and then asked them if they had any rental listings. My two friends really used this method to find, but also free of a large amount of agent's fees, and direct rental of the landlord he did not have to pay the agent's fee, he is also very happy to directly on the home to rent to you.
Specifically, when you walk around the neighborhood, you should focus on paying attention to the neighborhood's older sister, who is usually the neighborhood's "king of connections", basically young boys and girls speak politely, talk to the older sister, and talk nicely, and boast a little bit of the older sister, the older sister will be very happy to do you a favor, and he might be able to Find a community where he dances together or a certain neighborhood where he walks his dog, or a group of homeowners where his building is located, and you'll be able to get this need of yours taken care of for you. He may not have a listing, but his friends do, right? In that case, the word will spread, a very fast spread, and it's highly likely that you'll find a listing as well.
Additionally, there is a bulletin board in the neighborhood, or the school district's homeowner's group or something, which also sends out information about rentals. In addition, there is a little trick, if you can pull down the face, you can buy some food ah what, to the neighborhood security and community security and small neighborhood security mixed well, they will also know some information, he saw a rental will contact you. The relationship between people and people is like this, we help each other to understand each other.
