Find Real Estate Agents in Lusaka
Are you relocating to Zambia? Zambia has a wide range of housing options. However, for expats on short term contracts, renting is the most viable option. The majority of residential property dates back to the 1960's and 1980's and is in need of major refurbishment. Larger properties tend to be older, stand-alone housing with perimeter wall fence and entrance. Alternate, housing styles are apartments, flats and residential housing complexes. Note about furnishings: Unless stated otherwise, properties in Zambia come empty, they have no appliances and no furniture. You can often talk to the landlord as to what is included in the property. Rental Agreement: Before committing to a rental agreement, you should run it by a Zambian attorney prior to signing it, as expectations of the landlord-lease agreement in Zambia may differ from the expectations in your own country. A number of people in the past have been known to have difficulty getting deposits back, it is therefore advised that this is clearly stipulated in the agreement and any conditions that may result in it being withheld. Rental periods do vary depending on housing type and area. However leases typically run for a minimum of one year. Find your agent here at www.housingagent.com
