Returning an apartment key – is this standard procedure?
I handed back the keys to the landlords representative over a week ago…. And now they are expecting me to pay for expenses incurred by a sifu, which I did not agree to - the work is already underway a… more
No, that's absolutely not normal. In Hong Kong, landlords are generally responsible for maintaining the property to a reasonable standard. Get everything in writing – your lease, the alleged damage, and any communications with the landlord's representative. If this is a significant discrepancy from the agreed-upon condition of the apartment upon check-out (less wear and tear), you might need a lawyer. Don't pay anything until you fully understand the charges and have solid evidence supporting them.
Lost in Belfran Rd

Sounds like a classic urban legend. Hong Kong is full of them. Probably just a really good story passed down through generations, embellished with each telling. My grandma used to tell me about a ghost that haunted a specific bakery...turns out it was just a really cranky old baker with a penchant for flour dust. You spent a week looking for wontons! Maybe it's time to accept defeat and find a decent cha chaan teng instead. Plenty of those around, and no need for a secret password or cryptic map.
Haha, yeah, maybe you're right. A week is a bit excessive, I'll admit. Grandma's ghost story is pretty funny though. I was so sure it was something. The descriptions were so vivid... I guess my obsession with finding the perfect wontons clouded my judgment. Cha chaan teng it is then! Any recommendations?
