Many privately owned apartments in Hanoi are offered for long-term rental.

A long-term lease commonly provides:

• More apartment choices

The exact lease duration, deposit, payment schedule, and included expenses depend on the landlord and apartment.

Before signing, tenants should confirm:

• Security deposit
• Rental payment schedule
• Lease duration
• Management fee
• Electricity and water charges
• Internet fee
• Parking charges
• Furniture inventory

9Group helps explain these points and communicate with the landlord before the agreement is finalized.

Short-Term Apartment Rentals

Some international residents need accommodation for several weeks or months rather than a full year.

Short-term apartments may be suitable for:

• Temporary business assignments
• Project-based work
• University exchanges
• Internship programs
• Trial periods before a longer lease
• Families preparing for permanent relocation

Short-term availability is more limited than long-term availability, and monthly prices may be higher. Many privately owned apartments prioritize longer rental periods, while serviced apartments may offer more flexible terms.

Tell us your arrival date and expected length of stay so that we can check suitable options.

Rental Costs and Additional Expenses

The total cost of renting an apartment includes more than the advertised monthly rent.

Depending on the property and rental agreement, tenants may also need to pay:

• Building management fee
• Electricity
• Water
• Internet
• Television services
• Parking
• Housekeeping
• Maintenance costs
• Security deposit

Some landlords include the management fee or Internet in the monthly rent, while others charge these expenses separately.

Serviced apartment packages may include selected utilities and household services. Privately owned apartments usually require tenants to pay consumption-based utilities separately.

9Group will clarify the known expenses before you sign the agreement so that you can estimate your total monthly housing budget more accurately.

The more information you provide, the more accurately we can recommend suitable apartments.

Step 3: View the Apartments

You may view apartments in person or request a live video tour if you are currently outside Vietnam.

Where available and appropriate, 9Group can assist with a bilingual rental agreement or explain the essential terms in English.

Tenants should review the complete agreement before signing and making payment.

Step 6: Apartment Handover and Move-In

At handover, both parties should inspect the apartment and record:

• Furniture
• Appliances
• Existing damage
• Electricity meter
• Water meter
• Access cards
• Keys
• Parking registration
