Our tips for housing abroad!
-
1. Prepare
Preparation is key. Create a folder to collect and save the necessary documents.
-
2. Consider the different options
Have a look at other options. Consider staying with a guest family or check out Facebook groups for possibilities.
-
3. Learn about the city
Inform yourself about the different neighbourhoods, hotspots and distance to the office!
-
4. Increase your chances
It is better to send a message too much than not enough. If you see something interesting, reach out to the one offering the housing. A simple message is not binding; consider your options!
-
5. Get all the information
Whether remotely or face-to-face, ask for all the necessary information beforehand.
-
6. Double check
Check the contract carefully. Only sign it if you are sure it is trustworthy, and everything is clear.
