Tribulations of finding a place in Delhi

My first challenge - find housing.
No one likes doing deals over the phone. Not sure why. I have 4 leads at this point ranging from 10K to 17K a month, but no one wants to commit. To some extent this makes sense, I would want to meet a potential roommate before they move in as well.
At this point Drishtee is putting me up at a guest house for a couple of days. I'm just going to have to find something in those 2 days, and if it comes unfurnished then I'll also have to find a bed. Good luck to me
