We can highly recommend Sapore di Cina to find more information about china like "How to apply for a chinese visa", "Travel insurance", "China tours" and much more.
We are working hard to motivate real estate agencies around China to upload their properties as soon as possible. Some districts located outside the city centre are usually not that popular with expats, therefore you might have limited property choices.
In China properties are often not exclusive to just one agency. Therefore, different agencies often list the exact same property at different prices. Always try to negotiate the price with the agency.
IIn China properties are frequently described as spacious and huge. If square meters are given, they are usually exaggerated by 25 %. The pictures and the apartment description might make the flat appear bigger than it actually is.
If you would like to upload a property, please create an account with us. After confirming the email, you can log in. Fill out your details and upload one property for free. Please make sure that all details are right, we will verify every property before uploading it on our website.
Every property will be automatically deleted after 8 weeks. You can upload a new property for free at any time.
After you have successfully uploaded your property it will be visible to all users. However, if you still haven’t found a tenant yet, you are able to push your property back to the top. After you have signed in you can visit "My Properties", it shows you every property you have created. Here you can push your properties to the top by clicking "push to the top".
When you are looking at a listing, you can see the contact details of the agency on the same site. You can contact them via the contact form, via WeChat or by phone.
Please always directly contact the agency via the contact form, via WeChat or by phone.
We highly recommend that you or one of your friends inspects the apartment before making a booking or transferring the money to the landlord. The pictures and the apartment description might make the flat appear bigger than it is. Please refer to our rental guide for more information.
This depends on the city, for instance in Shanghai the agency fee is 35 % of the monthly rent. In Beijing the agency fee is one full monthly rent. Usually, apartments over 20,000 RMB are agency fee free. Please refer to our rental guide for more information.
Most contracts in China are for one year. A lot of landlords accept a minimum rental period of 6 months or even 3 months. In this case, the rent might be slightly higher. Please refer to our rental guide for more information.
We highly suggest paying the rent by bank transfer or via WeChat/Alipay. Please refer to our rental guide for more information.
