Housing Info for Appsterdammers

Here you will find a list of resources to help you in your search for housing. Feel free to add links that you know about.

Where to live

Hotel recommendations

Short-term housing (3-6 months)

  • [http://vrbo.com](Vacation Rentals By Owner)
  • De Key - they rent out university dorm rooms to non-students over the summer

Long-term housing* (6 months +)

*Watch out for scammers! Never wire anyone money if you've never met them in person. Don't fall for apartment owners who say they're in another country doing charity work and therefore cannot meet you, but if you wire them money, you can have the apartment. Yes, this may sound ridiculous but the reason why these scammers are still around is because people still fall for them.

Housing Rights info

  • Tenants' rights in the Netherlands.
  • Helpful resources on housing and housing rights from I Amsterdam, the government of Amsterdam's website
