How do I find a place to live in Kennedy Town?

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

"Finding a place to live in Kennedy Town involves several steps. First, you need to determine your budget. This will help you narrow down your options and make your search more efficient. Next, you should research the area. Kennedy Town is a vibrant neighborhood with a mix of traditional and modern elements. It's important to understand the amenities available, the proximity to public transportation, and the overall vibe of the neighborhood. Once you have a good understanding of the area, you can start your search for a place to live. There are several online platforms that list properties for rent or sale in Kennedy Town. Websites like Squarefoot, 99.co, and Spacious are popular options. These websites allow you to filter your search based on your preferences such as the number of bedrooms, the size of the property, and the price range. You can also consider hiring a real estate agent. They have extensive knowledge of the market and can help you find a place that fits your needs and budget. Make sure to communicate your preferences clearly to your agent. Once you have a list of potential places, start scheduling viewings. This will give you a better idea of the space, the condition of the property, and the surrounding area. When you find a place you like, you'll need to negotiate the terms of the lease or purchase. This includes the price, the length of the lease, and any other conditions. Finally, once you've agreed on the terms, you'll need to sign a contract and make the necessary payments. This typically includes a deposit and the first month's rent for rentals, or a down payment for purchases. Remember, finding a place to live can take time, so be patient and thorough in your search," explained one person living in Kennedy Town, Hong Kong.
