In this post, I will share a couple important key notes about rent apartment in Da Nang, Vietnam.

When it comes to finding an apartment in Da Nang, I think it’s the common to use these online services.

  • DaNang Landlord
  • House Rental DaNang
  • Dot Property
  • Join Facebook Group And Contact With House Owner

I have used all of the services and I feel their response is usually really quick. So you can contact with the person in charge after you find some candidate apartments.

After you can contact with the stuff, you can follow this process.

  1. Arrange the time to see the room in person
  2. Hearing about the neighborhood or surroundings
  3. Negotiate the day to start living
  4. Pay the deposit
Warning! step 2 is very important to avoid any noise troubles. Because some people like Karaoke on the street.

Usually, the deposit is around 1 month. You can get back it when the contract is terminated and leave the apartment.

3.Must-Have Conditions For Renting An Apartment In Da Nang #

I don’t mention general requirement for renting an apartment like the size of room or facilities. What I want to emphasize here is that it’s necessary to consider the national situation of Vietnam.

In this 5 years, I have experienced many troubles related to Vietnam. So let me share some tips to select the apartment to live.

Find An Apartment With A Generator #

In Da Nang, there are lots of electricity cut with/without any plan. If you have got an electricity cut in the middle of the night in the hot summer, it must be a nightmare. Sometimes, the power is restored instantly, but it takes a half of a day if you are unlucky.

Therefore, it’s hyper important to ask whether the apartment has a generator or not. If it has, you can probably have a good sleep with fan or air conditioner under electricity cut.

4.Be Careful With Rental Agreements #

Before going to agree with the apartment contracts, you need to check the minimum contract period. In my case, the person in charge didn’t explain me about the minimum contract period (1 year). And if I terminate the contract before it terminates, you need to pay for the penalyt.

Because of that, I couldn’t change the place for one year. So it’s definitely better to check the minimum contract period before you sign it.
