How do I find a place to live in Sheung Wan?

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

"Finding a place to live in Sheung Wan 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 types of housing available in Sheung Wan. This could include apartments, serviced apartments, or even shared housing. You should also consider the size of the property you need, the amenities you want, and the location's convenience. Once you have a clear idea of what you're looking for, you can start your search. There are several online platforms where you can find listings for properties in Sheung Wan, such as 99.co, Squarefoot, and Spacious. These websites allow you to filter your search based on your preferences and view photos and details of the properties. You can also hire a real estate agent to help you in your search. They can provide you with expert advice and access to properties that may not be listed online. Make sure to communicate your needs and preferences clearly to your agent to ensure they can find the best match for you. Once you've found a property you're interested in, arrange a viewing. This will give you a chance to inspect the property in person and ask any questions you may have. If you're satisfied with the property, you can then proceed to negotiate the lease terms with the landlord or the real estate agent. Make sure to read the lease agreement carefully before signing it. Finally, once the lease is signed, you can arrange for the move-in. You may need to set up utilities and internet service, and purchase any necessary furniture or appliances. 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 where you'll be comfortable and happy," said one person in Sheung Wan.
