Hi Jizz and Yeager, I think that CX has put a stop to the check out/check in scam
And as Jizz says, you will be too busy to hunt for accomodation for the first 6 months or so, but after that, have a good look around as most rental agreements are for a 2 year period. As a guide, if your single, go to Mid-levels, if you have a family, go to Discovery Bay!!
Good luck and enjoy HK.
