We asked expats how they chose their neighborhood and found a place to live. They answered...

"Finding a place to live in Dumaguete City involves several steps. First, you need to determine your budget and the type of accommodation you're looking for. This could range from apartments, condos, houses, or even dormitories if you're a student. Next, you can start your search online. Websites like Lamudi, Dot Property, and Rentpad have listings for Dumaguete City. These sites allow you to filter by property type, price range, and location. You can also check local classified ads in newspapers or online platforms like Craigslist or Facebook Marketplace. Another option is to hire a local real estate agent. They have extensive knowledge of the area and can help you find a place that suits your needs and budget. Make sure to communicate your preferences clearly to them, such as preferred neighborhoods, proximity to amenities, and whether you want a furnished or unfurnished place. Once you've found potential places, arrange for viewings. This will give you a chance to inspect the property, check its condition, and see the surrounding area. Don't forget to ask about the terms of the lease, including the duration, payment terms, and any additional fees. Lastly, once you've chosen a place, you'll need to secure it by signing a lease agreement and paying any necessary deposits. Make sure to read the lease agreement thoroughly and understand all the terms before signing. Remember, finding a place to live can take time, so it's best to start your search well in advance of your planned move," commented one expat who made the move to Dumaguete City, Philippines.
