Where should I live in Sha Tin?

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

"Finding a place to live in Sha Tin 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 different neighborhoods in Sha Tin. Some areas may be more residential, while others may be closer to commercial areas or have better access to public transportation. Once you have a general idea of where you want to live, you can start looking for available properties. There are several online platforms where you can find listings for apartments or houses for rent or sale in Sha Tin, such as 99.co, Squarefoot, and Spacious. You can also hire a real estate agent to help you with your search. They can provide you with listings that match your criteria, arrange viewings, and help you negotiate the terms of your lease or purchase agreement. When you find a property you're interested in, make sure to visit it in person before making a decision. This will give you a chance to check the condition of the property, the neighborhood, and the proximity to amenities like shops, restaurants, and public transportation. Finally, once you've found a place you like, you'll need to sign a lease or purchase agreement. Make sure to read the contract carefully and understand all the terms before signing. If you're not comfortable with the terms, don't hesitate to negotiate or ask for clarifications. Remember, finding a place to live can take time, so be patient and don't rush the process. It's important to find a place that fits your needs and budget," said one expat who made the move to Sha Tin.
