How do I find a place to live in Dumaguete?

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

"Finding a place to live in Dumaguete, Philippines involves several steps. First, you need to determine your budget and the type of accommodation you're looking for. This could range from apartments, condos, houses, or even dormitories if you're a student. Next, you should research the different neighborhoods in Dumaguete to find one that suits your lifestyle and preferences. Some popular areas include the city center, Valencia, and Sibulan. Once you have a general idea of where you'd like to live, you can start your search. There are several online platforms where you can find listings for rentals in Dumaguete, such as Lamudi, Dot Property, and Rentpad. These websites allow you to filter by location, price, and type of property. In addition to online searches, you can also find a place to live by contacting local real estate agents. They can provide you with listings that match your criteria and arrange viewings. Another option is to ask for recommendations from locals or expats living in Dumaguete. They can provide valuable insights about the best places to live and may even know of available rentals. Once you've found a potential place, make sure to visit it in person before making a decision. Check the condition of the property, the amenities, and the surrounding area. Finally, once you've chosen a place, you'll need to negotiate the terms of the lease with the landlord. Make sure to read the contract carefully and clarify any points you're unsure about. Remember, finding a place to live can take time, so it's important to start your search well in advance of your move," explained one person living in Dumaguete , Philippines.
