Walk around…and not wait for eternity

Could you imagine how long we’ve been planning to move yet we didn’t find a place to rent and when the plan was almost buried 6 feet below the ground, Ace received a text message from his friend that the apartment unit beside them is vacant. We didn’t give it a second thought. By hook or by crook, we have to move and so we did. What really took us eternity to find a house to rent? Well, if you’re living in this side of the planet where modernization and industrialization is almost crawling, you have to walk around every street just to find a house or apartment for rent for it’s not like in highly urbanized places where everything’s posted in classified ads and in the world wide web.

Classified ads and a few websites could help but only for few who could afford high-end apartments  or townhouses. Same with those who are looking for commercial real estate (i.e. offices, etc.), relying on classified ads or in the web is not that helpful for not all aren’t posted there. Hence, everyone should spend time scouting every street for possible place to rent. For rent house/apartment hunting here literally means walking/driving around or else you will wait for eternity before you’ll find the place to move in.
