<blockquote rel="Nadine">Hi po ulit!
Ginawa ko to nung nasa cebu pa ako. I tallked to 5 different agents ata by email, pati unit owners. Ok lang naman po, they will tell you are welcome to view the apartment and apply to rent - IF available pa pagdating mo. But the thing is, apartments/units/houses are never available for long. So pagdating mo dito, maghahanap ka lang din ulit, makikipagusap sa iba't-ibang agent ulit, saka mo pa lang ma-view.
If there is an agent that will tell you by email or phone that he will guarantee a place but you need to deposit money, naku ingat po kayo. Kasi it's never a practice to pay money without inspecting a place first and signing lease/agreements. Nobody can (or ever should) guarantee the place is yours without you formally signing an agreement with them.
As to your last question, I have to admit, mahirap po. But the bottom line naman talaga for agents/owners is the capacity to pay rent. So, kung may maipapakita po kayo bank statements etc., baka they will approve naman your rental application. 🙂

Salamat po Nadine. Opo, di po ako magpapawire ng pera. Ang gusto ko lang kasi paglapag ko sa Australia ay mag-viewing na ako.
Anong mga websites po yung pinupuntahan para sa ganto?
