Right on top, we’ve got to tell you to do some research before you start finding apartments. It’s pretty simple tho. Just Google ‘average rent furnished house in Pune’ and it should pop up links that show the average monthly rents in different areas of the city. This will help you make a rough estimate of the monthly rent you can afford and help you narrow down your search for a flat. Orrrrrrrrrr, you can just choose to ignore this step. But only if you have the dough to back you up, Richie Rich.
Imagine this. You find a good fully furnished apartment online. You check out the pictures and your heart’s sold on them. So you call up the owner, talk to them about the terms, book the flat and ask them to make the space spick and span before the day your flight lands in Pune. Now, what if you land and reach the address, but only to find just a bed, a cupboard and a worn-out bean bag? At that moment, the ‘fully’ in a fully furnished flat will bug you real bad. In short, visit the flat before you end up paying for it. To avoid getting shell-shocked later.
Now, now, while you’re at a place checking it out, be mindful of the quality of the furniture too. Coz you don’t want a couch that fits better in a junkyard, do you? Unless you did not have to pay extra rent for it. Or else, on top of paying rent for a supposedly fully furnished flat, you’d also have to visit a Furlenco or Rentomojo to get a real couch in place. Now, if you end up in that sorta scenario, no one’s giving you any sympathies, bro. Only raised eyebrows perhaps.
None of us want to have anything to do with paperwork. But when it comes to a long term stay in a new city, you can’t have your way around it. Or else, you might just end up in shackles. Thanks to regressive house rules, hidden charges, or a dicey clause in the agreement that’ll cause you stress much later on. And in case you have no idea how to spot these things, then just read our article on the top 5 questions to ask while renting an apartment.
See? See? We’ve got an answer to your every question. Unless the question has nothing to do with renting apartments or living life in a new city. Like if you ask us ‘what’s the meaning of life?’, then we’d tell you, ummm, well, we don’t know.
