In Canada and other western countries, people might not say out loud that they won’t rent out to foreigners but that doesn’t mean people don’t discriminate unfortunately.
Interesting stories. Thanks for sharing. I had a three-bed-room, two-bath apartment in New Taipei city available for rent earlier this year. Good location, pet friendly. I was hoping to rent it to foreigners with family but it didn't happen. A Taiwanese family is renting it now. Next time I'll try to list it in English on 591.

Cheers! It would be nice if 591 had an English version as well

Wes❤❤ I love your Canadian accent, it reminds me of my professors in University of Graph Humber , Ontario ;) hopefully we can watch a video about the feature of your Ontario dialect !! It’s amazing

Hmm well I grew up in southern Ontario, Owen Sound, which isn’t far from Guelph! I always thought my accent was quite neutral but seems you can tell it apart!
Admirably we can get lucky here with rentals if we spend a lot of time looking around and find a nice landlord

我喜歡外國人,願意租給外國人,但會聊看看他在台灣多久,計畫何時離開,寵物也可,但要簽寵物契約。

Back in the day… circa 2003, there were ‘agents’ that would ‘help’ foreigners find a place to live. It was just as hard back then as it is now. But we did end up renting a place we loved near the Ruefong night market. Our landlords were school teachers and super great. I think we paid around 13,000/mo.

Proof of income and/or employment is not uncommon even in the US, not to mention checking the credit scores. By contrast, the rental market lacks regulations in Taiwan. So good luck before enjoying the low living expenses.

I am so sorry you guys need to experience such. Hope other than that, you do enjoy Taiwan.

@@WesDaviestravel I grew up in Kaohsiung and now live in Canada (which is the opposite of you). I love watching your videos and listening to your comments about my beloved hometown from your point of view.

Based on the real experience of my retired American friends. There are indeed problems with lease housing in Taiwan ! Expat would rather live in Thailand because it is friendlier there.

single foreigner, a small family, any situation with pet... I would choose single foreigner, if it's the same rental or even less.😊

Wes: So why did you decide to leave your last apartment? (the floor above me) Friend: It wasn't in the nicest of area (with neighbor who only bring me gift after I move out) The problem with foreign renters (not limited to Taiwan) is that there had been many cases were tentant causes a lot of trouble/damage to the building they were renting and the repair fee cost way more than the 1-2 X month down payment. The legal part of trying to sue someone who left the country is as good as "Zero" and while the ratio may be below 1 out of 100 but its cases like those that sticks in people's mind. What the agent should have say in Wes's case is "He is a foreign +// youtuber with more than 100k+ subscribers" XD to the landlord instead. IMO
Didn't get a good look at your apartment but I think if 2 bedroom around 16k to 18k a month. Incl the body corporate fee.

Haha well that’s just teaching hours in the classroom in front of kids. That’s all we get paid for, the rest is usually unpaid work like grading homework, lesson planning, meetings etc
