How do I find a place to live in Budapest?
We asked expats how they chose their neighborhood and found a place to live. They answered:
"I already knew the neighborhood from spending a summer here working as an intern. Found my apartment by asking friends & looking for apartments with roommates," said one expat in Budapest.
"We looked online and found it on a Ingatlan (Realtor) Hungarian/English site. Wasn't very hard to look through the pictures. You can also use sites like xpatloop.com to help locate the Realtors. Housing in Budapest is expensive right now for anything above 900 sq ft. and hard to find," remarked one member in Budapest.
