Start your search for accommodation at CasaSwap
We have all sorts of accommodation offers: single rooms, whole apartments, and even roommate offers!

There are many different types of accommodation, such as single rooms, whole apartments, shared apartments and university on campus housing. First of all, it’s important that you decide on the type of accommodation you want before starting your search. Secondly, you have to find your maximum rent budget and the costs for electricity, heating, water, internet, etc. You also have to find an ideal location for your new place – do you want to live very centrally located, or are you satisfied with living in the suburbs. Often, students want to live close to the university campus – therefore, centrally located accommodation is more expensive.

How to find accommodation
If you’re a student we recommend that you ask your own university for help in finding a place to stay – often, they have great connections and sometimes even housing offers for you. A good way to search the housing market is to use the internet – there are thousands of website services out there (including CasaSwap, which offers thousands of listings particularly relevant for student and young people). Remember, that rooms and apartments in most major cities is in short supply which makes it even more difficult and expensive for students to find relevant accommodation. Finally, we also recommend you to ask your destination university for help (if you’re a student going abroad to study) since they have local knowledge about the housing market. Many universities have a webpage dedicated to finding housing – try to search on their website. Once you find the right kind of accommodation it is important that you get the right kind of home insurance. You can check out this site for UK home insurance comparison
