How do I find a place to live in Valencia?
We asked expats how they chose their neighborhood and found a place to live. They answered:
"A friend helped me look through the area where I am living and make some calls to rental agents. I like this area, and have a great apartment that is walking distance to the city but very modern and comfortable. There were several zones that I liked, but after viewing a large number of apartments throughout the city, I only found one that was a good price and well-appointed," explained one expat living in Valencia, Spain.
"One of the best ways to find a place to live in Valencia is to use online rental websites such as Idealista, Fotocasa, and Habitaclia. These websites allow you to search for rental properties in Valencia by location, price, and other criteria. Additionally, you can contact local real estate agents who specialize in rental properties in Valencia. They can provide you with more information about the local rental market and help you find a place that meets your needs. Finally, you can also look for rental postings on social media sites such as Facebook and Twitter," said one person in Valencia.
