Things To Keep In Mind

Creatrip will provide consultation services for rental only, and the consultation regarding property, occupancy, and the contract are managed by our real estate agency partner, Ziptoss.

Please accurately input your KakaoTalk ID when making a reservation. Consultation cannot proceed without a KakaoTalk ID.

After an online consultation with Ziptoss, you will need to be assigned to a nearby branch office in order to visit in person. An in-person consultation is not possible without making a reservation with Ziptoss beforehand.

Ziptoss will manage the rental contract, brokerage fee, payment, and any inquiries regarding the residence.

When the actual contract is completed, customers are required to pay the service fee to Ziptoss, which follows the legal brokerage commission rate in Korea. Click here for more information.

Even for Koreans, it is difficult to find affordable housing near universities. Please keep in mind that in-demand properties can become unavailable quickly.

Tenants must maintain the original state of the rental property during their stay, and any damages caused intentionally or negligently will be the responsibility of the tenant to restore.

In Korea, there are strict regulations enforced regarding trash separation. Please separate plastic, vinyl, paper, and other materials accordingly, following the manual provided by the building and the local area.

The included options for each room (air conditioning, bed, etc.) may vary depending on the property.

If any facility in the residence breaks down or problems arise, tenants must negotiate with the landlord directly. Ziptoss can provide communication services between the landlord and tenant, but additional costs may incur.

Pets are not allowed in any residence, and indoor smoking is prohibited.
