Step by Step Guide on Finding the Perfect PG/Room on Rent
Finding a PG/room after shifting in a new city can be a daunting task. It is definitely a very challenging one as well, leaving your family behind and stepping into that responsible phase is quite a lot of work, isn’t it?
Check out this crisp list of guiding pointers below:
- Be sure of the area or locality you wish to stay in
Figure out the exact area which is at a convenient distance from your new college or workplace. If you have to travel a lot from a rented place then what’s the whole point? Isn’t it? It should save you a bomb for transportation too.
- Figure out the desired room occupancy and size of the room
Based on your preference in terms of privacy and comfort, choose either a single occupancy room or on twin sharing basis. If you are on a budget or have close friends together, go for a triple bunk stay at most. Be sure that you have enough storage almirahs for your clothes and books. If not, the room bust be spacious enough for additions. It must be airy and well-lit too.
- Discuss the financial details
You must be very careful about the security deposit, its policy on the electricity charges per unit, deadlines and other details. Make a written contract if possible so that you can leave the room as easily as you came in. Getting your security back can be an issue with some owners. Compare the electricity unit charges with other PGs to know that you are not being overcharged.
- What about the food?
I think, we would all agree that all of us have go through that biryani craving, need for period pampering or that waffle obsession from time to time. If you don’t want yourself running distances from your room, choose a site which has a convenient distance at hygienic food joints.
