all i remember from before i left in late 98? Is my apartment in discovery bay? was going for 800 a month. it was small? but very nice.
Search out english newspapers. or search it out online. You'll find one. theres enough of them out there, and do yourself a favor?
Dont move to the slum areas.

Answer 2

For 800 a month you even can't get a parking space.

1. Select an area.
2. Go to a property agent there.
3. Tell them what you want and your budget.
4. Let them show you suitable places.

Depending on the area, a 1000sq.ft. flat can range from HK$5000 (in rural areas) to HK$100,000 on the peak.

Use the link below for some checking.

Hi,

This is a good site to look for HK apartments/flats. There is a good range in property here, from really small to very large. A lot of the decent property in HK is expensive....and the real estate there is some of the most expensive in the world ~ just an fyi.

Anyway, here is the link:

Good luck and hope you find something.
