Looking for a Condo

Looking for an apartment to rent in Phnom Penh? We have you covered. This is a good starting point for expats who are in the process of moving to Cambodia to live and work. Finding a villa, condo, flat, or borey to stay in when you arrive is probably one of your top priorities. Check out our listings from the community! And if you have a house or apartment for rent, you're welcome to list it here for free. Kampot, Siem Reap, Battambang, Sihanoukville, and other provinces around Cambodia also have places to rent, but you might have better luck finding them on foot after you arrive, as the largest number of listings are in the capital city of Phnom Penh.

Don't know if this is already said, but I'd look new condos in choy chang var. They are just bridge away from the riverside/city. And quality is good.

That's about 5 km of road from where he wants to be.

Yes, that place is a non-starter.

I’ve been searching online and have even been in contact with a broker, Bobby Peoples, but unfortunately he hasn’t provided much that meets everything I want. I have been in contact with two (2) places that I will be checking out when I get there on November 11th.

Lux Riverside and Apartments on St 136: 1-bedroom w/balcony for $750 per month with 1-year lease. They have cheaper options but I wanted a balcony.

Season Residence on St 144: 1-bedroom w/balcony $600 per month with 1-year lease. Again, cheaper options available.

Both of these are spitting distance to the river.

I will definitely be looking at other places when I get there, but finding places online has become kind of a pain in the ass. Even after communicating with several brokers and searching their websites, some don’t provide all the info to see if it has everything someone is looking for.

I stayed in the one bed apartment in Luxe for 4 days in September as I had the builders in. The furniture is old and uncomfortable (wooden crap), the bedroom is small. The units are very old and tired. It's ok for a short term stop-gap but for a long term arrangement it's a not for me. Plus, every time you walk out the front door you get shouted at by tuks and slappers.

Seasons might be worth a look.

Rents in Phnom Penh are not crazy. It's just that there's all ranges available from $50 pm to $50000 per month

And condos are a massive waste of money. Some of you folk are paying $800 for next to nothing

It's the epitome of wastefulness
Some fools will want to live within a certain radius of 136 and riverside for inexplicable reasons and some will want to rent in overpriced bkk1 when ten minutes drive in any direction one can find great value houses, apartments and bungalows for $100-600 with far nicer surroundings and ambience
