One-time setup costs
- Rental deposit और first month rent, अक्सर 2-3 months cash-flow pressure बनाते हैं.
- Temporary stay, viewing transport, basic furniture, bedding और cleaning supplies.
- Flight, luggage, document translation, notarisation, medical checks या school fees.
- First salary आने से पहले food, commute, phone और emergency cash buffer.
Common mistakes
- सिर्फ monthly rent देखना और deposit, temporary stay, furniture, internet setup और moving cost भूल जाना.
- Tourist budget को daily-life budget समझ लेना और weekday lunch, transport और insurance underestimate करना.
- Owner eligibility, address, contract terms और repair responsibility verify किए बिना money transfer करना.
- Work pass, tax, school admission या job outcome को guaranteed मान लेना.
