What advice to expats in Caracas have about housing?

When we asked people living in Caracas about the social scene there, they described it saying...

"Expats in Caracas advise newcomers to prioritize safety and security when looking for housing. It is recommended to choose a neighborhood with a good reputation, such as Altamira, Los Palos Grandes, or La Castellana. Gated communities and apartment buildings with 24-hour security are preferable. It is also important to consider proximity to work, schools, and amenities, as traffic in Caracas can be challenging. Expats often suggest renting rather than buying property, as the real estate market can be volatile. Working with a reputable real estate agent can help in finding suitable housing options. When renting, it is essential to carefully review the lease agreement and be aware of any additional costs, such as maintenance fees or utility bills. Expats should also be prepared for power outages and water shortages, so having backup power sources and water storage is advisable. Lastly, networking with other expats and locals can provide valuable insights and recommendations for finding the right housing in Caracas," commented one expat who made the move to Caracas, Venezuela.
