Study year and longer stay

Study year

Probably the easiest way to find a place to live for a study year is to contact your local student housing association. There are different forms of housing to choose from such as shared apartments, single-room apartments, family apartments
or group apartments. The shared and group apartments are the cheapest and easiest to obtain.

Longer stay

If you need to rent an apartment for a longer period of time you have several options. Firstly, contact the local housing office about municipally owned rental appartments. Sometimes the local housing is appointed to a certain real estate office where you can apply for an apartment. Being active yourself can also be helpful when in search for a home. Flipping through the local newspaper for rental apartments or maybe placing an ad yourself can produce some nice suprises. Also checking the websites of real estate offices is useful. Many private apartment owners find tenants this way.
