How do I find a place to live in Iloilo City?

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

"Finding a place to live in Iloilo City 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 Iloilo City to find one that suits your lifestyle and preferences. Some popular areas include Jaro, Mandurriao, and La Paz. Consider factors such as proximity to work or school, availability of public transportation, safety, and nearby amenities like shops, restaurants, and parks. Once you've narrowed down your options, you can start searching for available properties. There are several online platforms where you can find listings, such as Lamudi, Dot Property, and Property24. These websites allow you to filter results based on location, price, property type, and other criteria. In addition to online searches, you can also contact local real estate agents who can help you find a place. They have extensive knowledge of the local market and can provide valuable advice and assistance. When you find a property you're interested in, arrange a viewing with the landlord or agent. This is your opportunity to inspect the property, ask questions, and negotiate the terms of the lease. Before signing a lease, make sure to read it carefully and understand all the terms and conditions. If possible, have a lawyer or knowledgeable friend review it as well. Finally, once you're satisfied with everything, you can sign the lease, pay any required deposits or fees, and move into your new home in Iloilo City," said one expat in Iloilo City.
