How do I find a place to live in Lebanon?

We asked expats how they chose their neighborhood and found a place to live. They answered:

"One of the best ways to find a place to live in Lebanon is to search online for rental listings. Websites such as Lamudi, Zameen, and Property Finder are great resources for finding apartments, villas, and other types of housing in Lebanon. Additionally, you can also search for rental listings on social media platforms such as Facebook and Twitter. Additionally, you can also contact local real estate agents who can help you find a suitable place to live in Lebanon. Finally, you can also ask friends and family who live in Lebanon for recommendations on where to look for housing," explained one person living in Lebanon.
