大家帮帮我吧`~很忐忑

Don't pay or transfer money before you see the house and landlord.  There are many people cheat new students to pay money in advance into bank account and they are not landlord.  They always say their landlord cannot speak Chinese and they do their landlord a favour but be careful most landlord won't ask you to pay without seeing the house

This tell you don't trust money transfer without seeing the person who supposed to be the landlord or estate agent and written agreement is a MUST.  Most landlords don't want to rent the house out for short term but if he/she does, at least he/she will write on paper about the rent paid and agreement.  It is not nescessary a very formal agreement as it is for short term but it will be some sort of written agreement.  Why I know as I am a landlord and I will alway show the house to my potential tenant  before I take the rent. Please don't don't just pay without seeing anything.  Don't blame the landlord as you were cheated not by the landlord but someone who is not a landlord.

是阿，最近短租一两个月的屋子还确实不多，因为现在可能是毕业典礼加新生来，房子紧俏，，不过gumtree也是一样，现在连有些中介也不靠普，还是得自己多个心眼，太便宜的都要注意，合同好好读。

你是找谁租的呢？直接和房东么，还是得多小心，短租一个月这样收定金有点奇怪。
如果男朋友只来住一个月，这论坛上应该很多空房间的
