Hello dear readers website
When you are far from home, you always want to find something at least remotely reminiscent of it. A place where you will return with pleasure, or at least without disgust.
Finding housing is not an easy task, especially in a foreign country. Beijing is a huge metropolis with great opportunities. Prices for purchasing and renting housing are rising every day. In this post we will discuss what exist ways to rent an apartment/room in Beijing.
First, let's see what does its cost depend on??
1) Area of ​​residence. The further the apartment is from the center, the less prestigious the area, the cheaper the rental price. Traditionally expensive are the CBD business center (Guomao), Sanlitun, the Russian embassy area of ​​Dongzhimen, Yabaolu, etc. - these are the places where Russians and other foreigners often settle.
2) Condition of the apartment. Repairs, presence/absence of central heating, furniture, design - all this affects the cost of housing. For example, in the Sanlitun and CBD areas there are apartments that are in no way inferior to the best European ones: in modern compounds, equipped with the best appliances and perfectly decorated. Often in such houses there is a gym on the ground floor; the cost of visiting it is included in the rent. Such housing will cost approximately 8,000 yuan per month.
3) Transport. If there is a metro station or bus stops near the apartment, then undoubtedly the rental price will be higher.
How to look for an apartment in Beijing? There are several options:
1)
There are many agencies in Beijing, such as 我爱我家 Wo ai wo jia, Homelink etc., which can be found at every step. As soon as you go there, several agents will run up to you. If you do not speak Chinese, you can contact them in English, as a rule, many of the realtors can speak it. State your basic requirements and the agent will present you with a variety of options. The advantage of this method is that you can view several apartments and make a choice. Disadvantage: you will have to pay 100% commission to the agency. Usually, housing rental scheme in Beijing is as follows: you pay three months’ rent + 100% agency commission + deposit equal to the cost of living for a month. In some cases, this is a monthly housing payment + 100% commission to the agency + deposit. You should be careful with the agency. There are times when at first they show you one apartment, and when you pay money and sign the contract, it turns out that the apartment is missing furniture, appliances, etc. Ask if the contract can also be drawn up in English. Or go with someone who speaks Chinese. By the way, it happens when the contract in English and Chinese do not match. Be careful! Before concluding a contract, it is very advisable to meet with the owner of the property - fandong (?? - fangdong).
2)
An excellent English-language site where various rental advertisements are often published. These advertisements are posted by visitors to this site. What do you need to do? Open the site, find the word Classifieds (ads) in the upper left corner - click on it.

Search for the word “Housing” and look at the categories below. For example, Apartments for rent– rent an apartment; Seeking Roommate– search for roommate (neighbor); Sublets, Temporary housing&homestays– temporary housing (for example, someone does not want to lose a good apartment, but due to leaving, they re-let it for a while). Select the desired category and look for housing depending on the area or price. Often, advertisements for apartments for rent are placed by agencies, so ask in advance if there is an agency fee.
We found it through this site - we went straight to the owner of the apartment. The main thing is to ask all questions in advance: whether it is an agent or an owner, is there an agency fee, how much is the monthly rent and how much should be paid at a time. You can communicate via email or by phone, depending on what was written in the ad.
3) Website polusharie.com
A wonderful Russian-language portal with a lot of useful information about life in China. Regardless of what city you live in, you can find suitable housing there. Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Harbin, Sanya - this is only an incomplete list of places where our fellow countrymen live.
First, go to the Chinese forum, find the right place there: Beijing, Shanghai, North China, South China, etc. Each subforum will have a section dedicated to rental housing.
4) Website 58.com
If you know Chinese and can read Chinese, then go to this site. A wonderful resource where both agencies and homeowners post advertisements. In addition, through this site people are looking for roommates. 58.com is easy to use, you can select an ad based on the cost of the property, the area, and the person who posted it (agent/individual).
And finally, one of the most important questions: how much does it cost to rent a room/apartment in Beijing?? For now, winter 2013, things are as follows:
1. Rooms.
A room in an apartment with neighbors can be found for 2000 yuan (remote areas, for example the Batong metro line??) or closer to the center, but in an ordinary house with an old renovation. For 2500-3000 yuan you can find something suitable in more prestigious places (Wudaokou, Yabaolu). 3500 yuan - you can count on a nice room in a modern house, furnished with the latest technology, often with a private bathroom (Sanlitun, Guomao). In modern houses there are often several bathrooms in one apartment. However, by paying a little more, you can count on a separate apartment not in the center. Here everyone chooses according to their preferences. For some, it is important to live separately, even if not in the most luxurious place; for others, the main thing is location, European-quality renovation, expensive equipment, etc., so the choice stops at the room.
2. Apartments.
The most inexpensive apartment costs around 3000 yuan (not in the center). For example, east 6 branches. In the center, in old houses, you can find housing for 4,000 yuan. In the student area of ​​Wudaokou, a studio costs about 5,000 yuan. There is another option - renting housing in a traditional Chinese home - Siheyuan, which is located in the hutongs. Such houses are cheaper than apartments, but they do not have central heating and have electric batteries. Luxury apartments in the Sanlitun and Guomao areas cost 8,000-10,000 yuan. For 6,000 yuan you can find simpler housing, but also very decent.
In general, that's all I wanted to write for today. I like to repeat the phrase: he who seeks will always find. Don't despair, be patient, and you will definitely find a suitable option at an affordable price.
We wish you good luck in your search for housing!

If you are going to China to study, work, or would simply like to spend some time in the Middle Kingdom, you need to resolve the issue of housing. Living in a hotel is a bit expensive and, moreover, there is no space necessary for normal life.

You need to rent an apartment in China, but how is this done?

In China, the real estate rental market is very dynamic and the spheres of influence on it are divided between the three most powerful companies Liangjia, Zhong Yuang Di Chan (Chinese: 中原地产) and Wo Ai Wo Jia (Chinese: 我爱我家).

To avoid another "razvodilovo for foreigners", I recommend that you use the services of these companies. Since all transactions here are supported by the usual lease agreements between the tenant and the “fangdong” (Chinese: 房东 - owner of the property).

You come to one of these offices and say: “Wo yao zu fang” (Chinese: 我要租房), which means “I want to rent an apartment.” After this, polite and interested staff will ask you about all the nuances and wishes: how many rooms, how long would you like to rent, number of floors, availability of fittings, equipment, etc. If you do not speak Chinese, it is advisable to find in advance either a foreigner who speaks the language or a Chinese who speaks English to accompany you and help you present your idea to the company representatives. This way you can give an accurate idea of ​​the apartment you want.

What nuances can you encounter in China when looking for an apartment to rent?

1. Apartments “go away instantly.”

You have looked at the apartment, you need to make a decision instantly - “yes” or “no”. Since there are a lot of Chinese and everyone needs to live somewhere.

2. Apartments in China are dirty.

Nobody in China scrubs an apartment for rent. It’s even customary here not to vacuum after the owner has moved out. The new tenant must do everything himself. So don't be scared or surprised.

3. Apartment renovations very often leave much to be desired.

It feels like the only thing that matters to the Chinese is the fact of having a roof over their head. No one looks at the living conditions at all, given the price that the apartment owners put forward. Therefore, when you voice your idea of ​​​​a future apartment to the agency, be sure to say the phrase that you only need a “zhuang xiu” (Chinese 装修) apartment - an apartment with a good renovation.

4. Be sure to check the drains in the kitchen and bathroom. Try flushing the toilet.

This is the sore spot of all Chinese apartments. It often happens that pipes leak, so be sure to check their suitability before signing the contract.

5. Payment for the apartment for the first time occurs according to the following formula:

Monthly rent + 3 months of payment in advance + monthly rent (as a deposit) + Internet and house maintenance services for a year or six months (depending on the rental period).

6. Payment, in most cases, is made once every 3 months (unless, of course, you plan to rent an apartment for a long time)

7. Be careful! All contracts contain a clause that starting from the second payment, rent for the apartment is made 7-10 days before the start date of the new residential month (for example, you moved into the apartment on the 30th - you must pay 7 days before the 30th, i.e. on the 23rd ).

8. To forever deal with the question “how much does it cost to rent an apartment?” Let's answer this: the average cost of renting a good 1-room apartment in large cities (Beijing, Shanghai, Nanjing) ranges from 3000 to 5000 yuan per month ($500-850). Apartments for rent in Shanghai, as in Beijing, the matter is not easy - there is a lot of competition, so you need to hurry with your choice.

After signing the contract, you can happily transport your belongings to your new apartment!)

And be sure to find a common language with the owner of the apartment. This will always be to your benefit!
