How do newly graduated college students quickly rent their favorite house in a strange first-tier city?

Extract keywords from the topic: "strange, first-line, fast, like." Setting the conditions to the most cruel state can often inspire the strongest fighting spirit. A completely strange first-tier city, no relatives, no friends. It takes one month to find a house for the first time and half a month to change rooms for the second time. These two houses happened to be the most affordable ones at that time. The process is very bumpy, but I am glad that I can experience and bear it. Now, I want to take out all the detours, lessons and reflections afterwards. Maybe you are experiencing or about to experience renting for the first time in your life. I hope I can help you.

What needs to be explained in advance is that the prerequisite for the smooth implementation of my method is that the family can give enough financial support in the early stage. In short, the process is divided into three parts: "the choice of temporary residence, the choice of target area and the choice of rental source."

First, the choice of temporary residence

Ok, so when I come to a completely strange first-tier city, from the moment I get off the train (plane), the first thing I want to think about is where I will live tonight. Or where did I live when I was looking for a house? This is the first problem we have to solve: "the choice of temporary residence." It takes energy to deal with this problem, because there is not enough energy to find a house during the day and there is no peaceful rest at night.

The above two are the best solutions when the price and comfort I have measured are satisfied. If you prefer to be alone, you need your own space, don't like being disturbed, and wash in a separate bathroom, choose to rent a hotel on a monthly basis. In general hotels, there will be a month's rental supply in the off-season, which can be said to be quite cost-effective compared with staying for only one night. Hotels with monthly rental service usually advertise at the door or ask the front desk. If you are the kind of person who comes back from a busy day, likes to be in the mountains of Kan Kan with friends from all corners of the country, likes the lively atmosphere and doesn't mind using the public washroom. Then, single-room youth travel is the best choice. It can not only ensure that the personal rest space is relatively quiet, but also meet the needs of making friends and entertainment in public areas. It is a choice for both fish and bear's paw.

It should be noted that if you decide to choose Yuezi Hotel, you must pay attention to the sound insulation effect of the room. Generally speaking, the sound insulation effect of the hotel is not ideal due to the renovation of the old room, so it is not recommended to choose. After running outside for a day, I was awakened by an energetic couple next door when I slept in the middle of the night. It tastes terrible. In order to minimize the probability of winning the prize next door, let the front desk choose the room to open to the high floor, the corner or the safe passage next to the stairs when checking in. In short, it is to minimize the connecting area between your room and other rooms. This experience is also very applicable when choosing the house to rent next.

It should also be noted that whether you choose to live in a single youth hostel or a monthly hotel, you'd better choose to live outside the target area. The target area is the psychological definition of the approximate range of the location of the house we want to rent. If you choose your own temporary hotel or youth travel service in the target area, it is easy to expand outward with this as the center when looking for a house. There is a saying: "I don't know the true face of Lushan Mountain, but toward which corner of the mountain". As a result, I often have a wrong understanding of the overall layout of the target area. Therefore, it is better to live far away when staying temporarily. It is hard to go back and forth every day, and we should also create an atmosphere of sneaking into the target area to choose a house every day. It feels like the player parachuted from the transport plane to an island at the beginning of the "chicken eating game". When you enter the target area to choose a house every day, you will have a correct understanding of the location of the house in the whole target area. This is of great benefit to the planning of future work routes and various itineraries.

Second, the choice of target area

When you first arrive in a strange city, your understanding of the city is like opening a mobile phone map. When you encounter network delay, the route of the city is covered by a large mosaic. Therefore, if you want to define the target area of renting a house, you must first establish contact with the city and make the city map clear in your mind. So how does this process need to be completed quickly?

First, find out the subway map of this city. If the city is compared to a person, then the subway is the skeleton of Ta. Although it is composed of several simple line segments, its importance is self-evident.

Ok, the subway map is in my head. Well, this city is still very vague to me. What should we do next? -"Gentleman's nature is the same, and goodness lies in personal leave." Personal strength may be small, but we can make ourselves stronger with the help of external forces! —— Leveraging the site selection scheme of large companies will get twice the result with half the effort. Apple store retail stores and Tesla charging piles will be located near the city's super shopping centers and super white-collar buildings. Ikea, Metro (warehouse supermarket) and Decathlon (sports supermarket) ... are generally planned near the edge of the main city. The location of these companies is selected by professionals according to the development of the city, so just take it and use it directly. So,

The core of the city is known, and the boundaries are also known, and then the subway map is superimposed on it. Then the city map will have fewer mosaics in our own hearts.

Next, you need to relax yourself and arrange a "3" day holiday for yourself, not necessarily three days, but arrange a few days to relax yourself according to your actual situation, which can be long or short. If we are not in a hurry, we suggest that the longer the better. In the meantime, don't think about renting anything, but do what you are interested in and go where you want to go. For example, in those days, I went to Internet cafes to surf the Internet, went to snack streets to eat delicious food, went to amusement parks to relax, went to IKEA, went to supermarkets and looked around ... In short, I just walked more. After the holiday, sit in front of the computer, open the web map, recall the places you have traveled in the past few days, and collect every place into a five-pointed star. When all the places are marked, these five-pointed stars form an outline, which in most cases is the outline of your activity space in this city. Then, the larger the target area of renting your own house, which coincides with the outline, which means that the infrastructure and services needed by your home will be more complete in the future.

Sharpen a knife and cut wood by mistake. Believe me, these days are the golden time for you to establish multi-dimensional ties with this city, which is worth "wasting".

Another thing to pay attention to when choosing the target area is "starting from your actual needs". Many young people (including me) don't know what kind of house they want when they rent for the first time, that is, what is the main purpose of the house. Simply put, if work is the main thing, then the house is mainly used for sleeping ... So the bedroom is the most important thing, and everything else can be done. Then if the house is mainly used for living, then the kitchen has the highest priority, and the comfort of the kitchen will greatly affect your satisfaction with the house.

I attached great importance to the kitchen when I chose my first house. At the same time, I also think that the infrastructure near renting a house must keep up, that is, it is very convenient to buy food. I'm ashamed to say that when I rented my first house, my cooking was close to zero, so I was very nervous when I bought food, because I didn't know how much potatoes cost a catty, how much tomatoes cost a catty, how the price fluctuated with the seasons, and what kind of seasonal dishes I bought was the best ... So I really wanted to have a one-stop shopping place with clearly marked prices and complete dishes. Fortunately, there is a vegetable supermarket chain called "Xinlongjia" in the city where I come. Its advantage lies in … what I said above (but after a long time, I also found its shortcomings are equally obvious, but overall, it is still novice-friendly). So I marked all the new Longjia supermarkets in the target area with a five-pointed star and set it as the highest priority. When I visit each shop, I will give priority to how long it will take to walk from this one to the vegetable supermarket. After anchoring this priority, it can be said that when looking at the house, I feel that I have an anchor in my heart and refuse many temptations, so I can focus more on the houses near the priority.

The last thing I can share with you about the choice of target area is "fate". What? Looking for a house still needs fate? ... well, it sounds ridiculous at first glance, but in fact, it is. Just like falling in love, you need eye contact. To put it further, you can imagine the wonderful fragments of your future life when you are with ta. The same is true of finding a house. When you see the building, the living room and the surrounding facilities, you can imagine the beautiful picture of your future living here. Take me for example. During the time when I was looking for a house, I took the bus early in the morning as usual and went to the target area to make an appointment to see the house. This bus is not through. The nearest station to that house is a park. I have never been there before. When I got off the station, the morning sun just shone on my face, slightly dazzling. When I got used to this kind of light, I saw a lake and sunshine in the center of the park. Sparkling, there are many old people doing morning exercises by the lake, children are playing or on their way to school, and many dog lovers are walking their dogs ... At that moment, I can imagine myself doing morning exercises here one morning in the future, so I said to myself, "Well, this is it." As a result, the first house I rented was only five minutes away from this park. If you are hit by this similar feeling when looking for a house, congratulations, the house you are looking for is near here.

Third, the choice of leasing sources.

Had a simple meal in the snack bar, went out and stood at the door. I lifted my skirt and looked at the bustling city and the busy people. I can't help thinking … where can I find rental information? I thought about it, too. I turned and walked to the chain house agent next to me to surrender my insurance, but at that time I kept saying to myself, "Wait, it's the last plan." In fact, under our feet and overhead, there is a huge amount of housing data surging in the dark every day ... So where can we find it?

The first thing to be clear is that there are four gradients. That is to say, the order of house excavation, the four gradients are gradually decreasing, that is to say, the first gradient can not be found, and then go to the second gradient to find. These four gradients are: idle fish, property, building intermediary and market chain intermediary. Idle fish is not only a trading market for second-hand goods, but also a publishing market for rental information. A lot of rental information is posted on it every day. It should be noted that some intermediaries will also post information on it, and first ask in the chat in the app: "Are you the landlord?" Generally, he will tell you that I am the landlord himself or the intermediary who sent the message. The reason why idle fish is given the highest priority is because we can contact the landlord himself. From the first house inspection to the final signing, we directly meet and communicate with the landlord, and many problems can be solved directly. The second gradient is to ask about the properties of the property. Is there any information that the landlord has entrusted to rent the house here? Generally, the property has the obligation to help the landlord do this, so there will be no agency fee. This is only the human relationship between the landlord and the property, and has nothing to do with the tenant. It is also possible to get in touch with the landlord directly. The third gradient is the intermediary in architecture. The so-called intermediary in the building is the real estate you are optimistic about. Go in and ask about the property. The property says it doesn't mean renting, but there is an intermediary in the building to cooperate with our property. It holds many of our houses in its hands. Therefore, this kind of intermediary who lives in your favorite real estate can be regarded as an "officially certified" intermediary. There are many houses with this real estate, which is more reassuring. Take the house I rented for the second time as an example. The first two grades did not find the rental information of this property, but they have a special liking for this property. It happened that the property of this building had a counterpart agent in the building, so I won it. The fourth gradient, that is, going to the chain intermediary in the market to ask about the housing, has dropped to this gradient, and I will not talk about it before I use it.

These are three suggestions that I hope to rent my favorite house in a strange first-tier city with the help of the power of the Internet and formal trading channels, which are relatively quick and reassuring. Some of them are simple, some of them are not expanded due to space reasons … If you have any questions, please leave a message in the message area.

Tail ... actually, I was still struggling when I named it. It really reminds me-how to find a place to stay in a short time when I first enter the Jianghu? ..... I think every teenager has a dream of becoming a hero when he grows into a youth and enters the Jianghu for the first time. ...
