How do I find a place to live in Malacca?

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

"One option for finding a place to live in Malacca is to search online for rental listings. Websites such as PropertyGuru, iProperty, and EdgeProp are popular resources for finding rental properties in the area. Additionally, you can search for rental listings on social media platforms such as Facebook and Instagram. You can also contact local real estate agents to inquire about available rental properties. Additionally, you can look for rental postings in local newspapers and magazines. Finally, you can ask friends and family who live in the area for recommendations," said one expat who made the move to Malacca.
