Son has a job offer in Nassua - many questions

7 years ago

My son received a good job offer in Nassau that requires a response by next week.

They want him there by August 10th.

The company will supply housing for one month, after that he's on his own.

He will have a monthly housing allowance of $1500.00.

Can he rent a furnished one bedroom apartment/condo for in a decent area for $1500 - $1800 a month?

I saw another post where it was said that most rentals require first, last and one month's rent to acquire a lease. Is this accurate?

He is negotiating a moving package at the moment, so this would be helpful to know.

He plans on storing the majority of his belongs stateside - we're in Texas.

Are there durable items he should definitely pack because they are too expensive in Nassau? Sheets, towels, blankets, etc.

How expensive are Scooters? He will need transportation due to late/early hours at work.

Info on cost of car insurance and difficulty of getting a driver's license would also be helpful.

Thank you.
