• Visit the Locality and Check If Its Really Convenient
• Check the House Rules
• Verify the List of Amenities Offered
• FAQs on Living in a PG

Visit the Locality and Check If Its Really Convenient

Here’s the thing about online property listings. Each and every one of ’em will claim they’re conveniently located. And even if you went to Google Maps to verify it, it’s of no use. Why, you ask? Because Google Maps might show you that the PG is just 5 kms away from your college. But it won’t tell you that the first km is where you won’t find any autos or public transport. And that, folks, is something you’ll only find out by visiting the locality yourself. You see, ordering things online is only convenient – and feels safe – when you’re not spending too much monies on it.

Check the House Rules

Gotta come home before 8PM? Need to pay extra for using your laptop? Can’t order outside food? Well, if you come across such rules during your house-hunting, then make sure you take a U-turn right away. Because you may not realise it at first, but most PGs won’t reveal their weird house rules until you’ve already made the confirmation on your booking. So the next time you’re visiting any PG facilities, and the owner’s being a little too sweet for you to digest, then assume something’s fishy and start shooting your questions right away.

Verify the List of Amenities Offered

The world is full of false advertising. Just look at Brahmastra’s marketing for proof. So in the same way, don’t expect your PG owners to be any different. A recently ‘refurbished’ bed might just mean a bed that’s been cleaned after a long while. A ‘top-class’ AC might just mean a dying one that shuts down the moment you try to lower the temperature below 25 degrees. So make sure you verify the paying guest facilities that you were promised before you move in. Otherwise, you’d be left trying to prove your claim legit like every other character in GOT and now, House of Dragons.
