Find a place to rent in beirut without selling a kidney
Hello, I want to find a place to rent in beirut because I'll start working there soon (october) (specifically near downtown).
I want to move into an apartment with a friend and split the rent between us so we want a 2 bedroom.
We have a budget of 1000$ for rent without utilities.
However whenever I look a place up it seems like there's so many caveats and I have to pay like 6months worth of rent in broker fees and advanced payments and deposits which is impossible for me to afford, especially as a new grad.
Do any of yall know a way or some websites or somebody to help search for a place where I don't have to already be wealthy to move in?
Here are some of the requirements for the apartment I have in mind, am I being delusional:
-
2 bedrooms
-
a kitchen (stove and oven)
-
furnished
-
the building has access to ogero fiber
-
a clean bathroom
-
sweet water
-
safe area
-
not too far from work
