    Set up the rental search

Relocating from another island: renting before you arrive

A transfer from Surabaya to Jakarta, a new campus in Yogyakarta, a contract in Bali: the hardest part is finding a place while you are still somewhere else. You cannot drop in on viewings, so you need to see each new rental early, shortlist it and get someone to look at it for you.

Email works well here. The matches arrive in a place you already check, you forward the promising ones to a friend in the city, and they visit before you commit to anything.

Your inbox as a rent comparison by district

With a label per search, a few weeks of mails show what similar units in that district actually ask. That helps you spot a price that is too good to be true and gives you a fair figure when you negotiate.

Every mail includes an unsubscribe link, so the alerts can end the day you sign.

Getting the first rental mail into the inbox

The provider decides where a new sender lands. When the first match comes, check spam and promotions, mark it as wanted and add the sender to your contacts. After that, a notification on the label lets you react to a strong listing while it is fresh.

Renting from a distance without being caught out

Never transfer a deposit or booking fee for a unit nobody you trust has seen. Ask for a live video tour, check that the person renting it has the right to do so, and get the rent, deposit, period and fees in writing. A listing priced far below the area, with an owner abroad who will post the keys, is a classic warning sign.

Ask your friend on the ground to check the water pressure, the mobile signal and the route to your office at rush hour, things no listing photo shows.
