Finding reasonably priced accommodation in a good area in Amsterdam can be
quite a challenge. There are a number of options to go about finding your new
nest. The easiest will be to sign up with a real estate agent and let him shortlist
apartments for you. For the more daring, you can use the internet to find apartments.
But beware of passing on information or advances on rent without having proper
documentation and contracts as there are a number of conmen out there.
You will find also ads on boards in shops (news-agents, shopping centers) and
in local newspapers.
In case of partnership, people who have signed the lease are the only legal
tenants, and therefore are responsible for the accommodation (it is possible
to let the landlord know of this partnership if officialised by the town hall
for example).
A lodging for a short stay
For people wishing to live in Amsterdam for a limited period, for work purposes
or other reasons, there are solutions like furnished flats, aparthotels or flathotels.
You can visit:
Youth Hostels, student accommodations (Kots)
Below are some listings for youth hostels/ student accommodation
A selection of apartments, studios and penthouse you will find on
www.worldfashionapartments.com Always check the owner (or let a professional do it for you) before paying any commission, rent or down-payment. Even if someone has the keys he or she could still be a fraud.
Even if you already found a suitable house/flat/room you can let us check the rightful owner and let us check the contracts.
