Grab a snack and geek out about apartments with me! Come along on my Vietnam apartment hunting adventure as I tour around 7 different one bedrooms in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam around $300- $400. I also chat about the neighborhoods or districts (District 1 as the heart and city center, District 3 adjacent & most preferable and District 2 a.ka. "Home of the Expats") and provide exact rent prices so hopefully this is helpful to anyone looking to move to Vietnam! :)

I found your apartment hunting is very helpful. This video was uploaded 7 or 8 months ago. I like your current apartment the best and the price is very affordable to our retirement budgets. I'm wondering the cost double for 2 bedrooms? We only plan to stay for 3 to 6 months only due to the visa. Do you have any suggestion? Thank you in advance. Dino and Ann from California.

Hi Ena, I'm just curious, in Vietnam do they have a rent to buy scheme? Are they allowing expats to own a house and lot in Vietnam? If so, why not buy one instead of renting if you're staying there for the rest of your life. Besides, your KZfaq channel and your day job can fully support your expenses. Just saying. 😊

@cloudyy.12 Жыл бұрын

about this.. i think it's might be a little bit complicated for foreigner. they check evrythings like passport, your job, your financial, some paper work you have to prepare... they wanna make sure that you are legally eligible to buy/sell a house/apartment/lot or not. if you buy a lot and want to build it buy your own, you have to ask for your local government (county, district, city... where you live) permissions. construction permits, business permits (for business purposes), taxes, related administrative papers etc. oh dear, it's might drive you crazy.

I’ve been watching your videos a lot lately as I’m going go HCM later this month as an exchange student! Your apartment hunting video was super helpful🫶 I’ve been trying to find apartments through the facebook ad and there’s one house that I like but the house owner says he’s out of vietnam right now and his family members will show me the house. He says contract can be signed, scanned as a document and sent over via email and I’ll get the actual copy once he comes back to vietnam in 3 mnths. I’m kinda suspicious of this tho🤔is it normal in vietnam to sign contracts this way or could this be a scam possibly?

@enafrancia Жыл бұрын

Hi! i recommend for you to sign a contract once you're here personally in Vietnam so you can see the actual apartment and the neighborhood. To be honest this case is unusual. you can book for an airbnb or hostel in your first days/ weeks while searching for an apartment or once you checked the apartment that you liked.

@thumtlnguyen3626 Жыл бұрын

If you do like the apartment so much it's easy to add a clause in the contract clearly mentioning: You agree to rent it now but the contract will be legally bound when you're there to check it yourself first.

@HandleOne Жыл бұрын

It's a scam. Only deal with people you meet in person who proves to you that they own the apartment or has the authority of the owner. Must be in person. Not over the Internet.
