The Housing Rental Crisis

A: 你最近不是说要搬家吗？找到合适的房子了吗？Nǐ zuìjìn bú shì shuō yào bānjiā ma? Zhǎodào héshì de fángzi le ma?

Weren't you saying you were going to move? Have you found a suitable place?

B: 别提了，找了快一个月了，还没找到满意的。不是太贵，就是太远。Bié tí le, zhǎo le kuài yí ge yuè le, hái méi zhǎodào mǎnyì de. Bú shì tài guì, jiùshì tài yuǎn.

Don't even mention it — I've been looking for almost a month and still haven't found anything good. It's either too expensive or too far.

A: 现在租房市场确实很紧张，价格涨得特别快。Xiànzài zūfáng shìchǎng quèshí hěn jǐnzhāng, jiàgé zhǎng de tèbié kuài.

The rental market really is tight right now — prices are rising especially fast.
