Risk Warning
In recent years, there have been cases in the rental market where tenants suffered losses due to the requirement of paying rent for the entire year in one lump sum. To protect the rights of every customer, all the apartments we partner with do not require one-time payment for the entire year's rent. We recommend that everyone choose carefully based on their own circumstances, as any losses resulting from personal reasons will be borne by the individual.
