FLATSHARING : A NEW WAY OF LIFE
Instead of living in a pokey attic room with huge rent, why not try
shared accommodation? Frequently associated with students, sharing is
spreading nowadays towards older established workers and covers people
from 18 to 49 years old. Without falling into a community style of life
such as in the 70's, you can choose to share an accommodation for a
bigger space, less expense.
Flatsharing is a way to meet more and more followers who choose to
break a lonely life, save money or just find an affordable acommodation
in a difficult market. This way of life has numerous advantages in term
of money, practicality or social life. EASYEXPAT
in partnership with EASYROOMMATE
number one for flatsharing, offers this service to its users to present
all the chances to find the ideal flatmate or to join an existing household.
If you've got a room to rent, you can put a free ad for house/flatsharing.
If you look for a room or a flatshare, it's free to search into
the database with thousands of offers.

Through an estate agent
The estate agent will
take a fee (about 2 or 3 times the price of the rent)
if he finds accommodation that you are looking for.
You can deduct from your tax certain estate agency fees.
Ask your tax office (Finanzamt).
