you can only try.

Also remember if leasing a property through an agent, you will pay an agent fee/commission

Not necessarily

With housing, sometimes its best to drive around the areas you like, and call the numbers on the rental signs.

If its a private one/not registered with an agent, you will generally deal direct with LL.

To rent any car you require an International Driving Permit (as mentioned many times previously).

Hello ..my name is Tracy and new to the forum.
I was wondering if anyone can help me with cost information on a studio priced apartment ..in say the Greens area. Also ..is it possible to rent for 6 months or do you have to rent for minimum of 1 year.

Your assistance would be appreciated

Any room out there for a Red & White. Coming out in June for a look around before the wife and I possibly decide to jump this sinking ship (UK).
