Finding a reasonable priced rental house in Patong is like looking for hen's teeth!::
I was due to move to a new place in Nanai 2 but my girl was told last Tuesday that the deal was off as they have sold it.This left me with only two weeks to find a place.
I first checked out behind the fire station but found no empty places.On the second day I trudged the entire length of Nanai Road going up every side Soi and found zero.
I went on around towards the temple and found recently posted sign advertising a house.I lucked in - this place had only been vacated over the weekend and they wanted a long term tennant.It is a big three bedroomed place with a fenced in yard which is ideal for me as I have a pack of dogs.The price was OK and the landlady speaks great English and was easy to deal with.I signed the contract as soon as possible and am moving in now.
I would never have spotted the sign if I had been in a car or driving a motorbike so the moral of the tale is use "Shank's Pony" (walking) when scouting for a place.
