I am an English-only speaker preparing to rent an apartment in China and I need a native-level Mandarin translator to guide me through every step of the process. From the initial online searches and phone inquiries right through to reviewing and signing the final lease, I want clear, real-time language support and cultural insight so nothing gets lost in translation. Here is what I am looking for: • Apartment hunting: Translate listings, contact agents or landlords, and arrange viewings that match my criteria. • Negotiating terms: Interpret during price talks, clarify deposit rules, utilities, maintenance clauses, and be sure everything we agree on is reflected in writing. • Lease signing & handover: Walk me through the contract line by line, confirm legal requirements such as residency registration, and make sure I leave with all keys, receipts, and official copies. I am flexible about how we work together—if you are based in the city and can accompany me to viewings that would be ideal, but I am equally open to a remote setup using video calls, WeChat, or similar tools as long as communication stays immediate and accurate. If available, please share examples of past work that show you have handled similar landlord-tenant or property transactions. Let me know your availability over the coming month and outline how you propose to manage time zones or on-site visits if needed. I value prompt responses, clarity, and a proactive approach to solving any hiccups that may arise.

Hello, I used to be responsible for apartments rental issues for my expatriate colleagues as I worked for multinational companies. I am experienced in this area and am fluent in English, both orally and in writing. However I am based in Guangzhou, I will be available remotely but would be difficult to support on sites. Additionally I have friends there who can support if needed. Feel free to reach out and I would be happy to assist. Regards, XiaoJun (Linda)
