Key questions for tenants in Zimbabwe — rent, utilities, lease length, maintenance, and neighbourhood before you commit.

1About the property and costs

Ask what is included in rent (water, Wi‑Fi, security, refuse), whether the price is negotiable, and when the property is available.

2About the agreement

Clarify deposit amount, refund rules, notice period, and who pays for repairs. Get answers before paying anything.
