Rentals in Beijing

"Finding a place to live in Beijing can be a challenging task. It is recommended to start researching in advance, as rental properties tend to be filled quickly, so it's important to start looking early. Another important factor for finding a home in Beijing is to have a good understanding of the local housing market. It will be helpful to hire a real estate agent who can provide useful information and help you to find ideal properties that fit your specific requirements. Additionally, you can use online resources to facilitate your search, such as expat forums or websites including listings of available properties. Furthermore, you can explore real estate websites and apps to find appropriate living spaces, such as furnished studio apartments near the city center, lofts near tourist areas, or 3-bedroom homes in residential districts. It is helpful to physically visit the area you are interested in and be familiar with the local landscape and cost of living. Finally, it is important to make sure you understand the local laws so you can be aware of what is expected when renting a property in Beijing," said one person in Beijing, China.

"I used a service called Ihouse. I did lots of research online for expat housing and knew what I wanted. I wanted a real bathroom with a toilet and shower stall and an apartment with lots of closets. I also wanted something close to a subway station. I live near jianguomen and the 2nd ring road," remarked one foreigner who made the move to Beijing.
