Make a list of non-negotiables

Before you go hunting for a PG, first you need to know a little more about the kind of  prey you’d like. We mean, make a list of things you won’t compromise on even if it’s last minute. That’s going to mean you’ll have to think about your priorities. Can you ditch a balcony if everything else is covered by a prospective PG? Well, that’s the kinda decision you need to make and write a final list of non-negotiables after.

Ask your friends and spread the word on social media

Yep, talk to your friends. Talk to your friend’s friends. Maybe even talk to your friend’s younger brother who’s always seen glued to his gaming PC. Because the point is, you never know when – and where – you may find leads.

And two more things. One, upload a story on your Instagram handle with your requirements. Two, join WhatsApp and Facebook groups where landlords put up listings and helpless fellows like you are on the lookout for roommates. Trust us, good things will come to you. Ok, maybe not that swanky pair of sneakers. But a PG fosho. And 99% of scientists say the latter has more value to add to your life. So…

Look for co-living spaces

Now here’s a shortcut that’s not only a shortcut but one that leads to a better destination too. The destination being a dope co-living space like Stanza Living. Because hey, it’s just very simple to find last minute accommodation on our website and app.

All you gotta do is select the type of accommodation you want, enter your preferred locality, and scroll through our catalogue of properties with vacant beds in the area. Once you find one you like, book a house tour. And the rest of the formalities can be done online. So it’s just perfect for you in your situation, no?

Go and look for vacancy signs

You see, if push comes to shove, you gotta look for vacancy signs by walking around in your preferred locality. Now, that might mean an exhausting couple of days but you still get to avoid brokerage if you happen to find a convenient place. So that’s 100% worth a shot.

Now, don’t you think you should scoot? Go out there and find that PG. No time to waste.
