rent an apartment
last night, i together with a former colleague went to look for a new apartment. our tenancy of current apartments both expire next month and we plan to share an apartment.
orginally, we hoped to rent house directly from the landlord, but we didn't expect that most of apartments resources are comming from real estate agency, which means if we could successfully rent an apartment, we have to pay for 1 month's rental as service fee that would increase our rent cost.
We have no other apartments resources. the agent guided us to have a look at 3 houses available for renting, which are more expensive than of bad living evironment. we were so disappointed. we were told that the priod of From July to August is not a good time for renting houses and the rental is much higher than that of other months. compared with houses in rural area, the ratio of price and quality of houses in urban is low enough to make us change minds.
anyway, we decided to look for apartments two weeks later. it's so early to find apartments.
