Default Looking for studio or 1 bedroom apartment

Hi,

I will be working in Johannesburg soon and I am looking for studio or 1 bedroom. My office will be around Randburg area, so where should I stay and how much is the rental?

This is the first time I will be traveling from Singapore to SA, so I will need all the help I can get.

Thanks

Hi OceanLuv,

I feel Sandton is quite safe place, though all complex have electric security system, so not too much to worry abt, just keep your car locked while driving around, look for place in Sandton (it expensive), Braynston, Even Randburg is good, and my personal favorite is Sandton

Oh ya u must have car there, as traveling by public transport is not safe at all, at least for foreigners.

Oh jhb is happening place for night animals, if u one u will find so many clubs and pubs... My personal favorite in Manhattan at rivonia square.
There are lots of malls for u do to shopping, Casino, and movie halls.

There are so many places to see near jhb, but I guess it will good or u to go there and make few friends... before heading to explore Jhb.

Hope u gonna like that lovely country

Cheers
Anu

Hey Anu,

I hope you dont mind to share with me how much is your rental? I am negotiating the salary with my company and I will be paying my own accommodation so if the rental is too high in SA, I will not be able to go.

Thanks for being so helpful.
