How do I find a place to live in Tai Po?

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

"Finding a place to live in Tai Po involves several steps. First, you need to determine your budget and the type of accommodation you're looking for. This could range from a small apartment to a larger family home. Next, you should research the different neighborhoods in Tai Po to find one that suits your lifestyle and needs. Some areas may be closer to public transportation, while others may be more residential or closer to parks and recreational areas. Once you have a good idea of what you're looking for, you can start your search. There are several online real estate platforms that list properties for rent or sale in Hong Kong, such as 99.co, Squarefoot, and Spacious. These websites allow you to filter your search based on location, price, size, and other features. You can also consider hiring a real estate agent to help with your search. They can provide valuable insight into the local market, help negotiate prices, and handle paperwork. Once you've found a potential place, arrange a viewing to see it in person. This will give you a better idea of the property's condition, its surroundings, and whether it meets your needs. If you're satisfied with the property, you can then proceed to negotiate the terms of the lease or purchase. Make sure to read the contract carefully and understand all the terms before signing. Finally, once the contract is signed, you can arrange for the move. This may involve hiring a moving company, setting up utilities, and changing your address with various institutions. Remember, finding a place to live can take time, so it's important to be patient and thorough in your search," said one person in Tai Po.
