Landlords are seldom prepared to sign a rental agreement for less than ten or even 12 months.</span></span></span></span></p>\n\n<p><span><span><span><span lang=\"EN-GB\">Perhaps you are already aware of the housing shortage through your institution or other channels. The housing shortage affects both Belgian and international students and creates major challenges in finding suitable accommodation. International students are facing extra obstacles due to language barriers and a lack of social networks in the country.</span></span></span></span></p>\n\n<p>There are several options to find a room:</p>\n\n<h2>1. Search online: find a room through Kotatgent</h2>\n\n<p>At the website of <a href=\"https://kot.stad.gent/en/find-a-room\">Kotatgent</a> you can find a list of rooms that are available at the moment.</p>\n\n<h2>2. Search offline: look for signs stating '(studentenkamers) te huur'</h2>\n\n<p>If you want to look for accommodation yourself offline, you should search for signs (often orange) stating \u201Cte huur\u201D (for rent), or signs reading \u201Cstudentenkamers te huur\u201D (student room for rent). Telephone numbers of landlords are also available. Room hunting may take at least a couple of days, but with some help from the housing officers at your host institution, you should be able to find a private room.</p>\n\n<p>We advise students to always start their search early. if you arrive in september, start your search in spring. </p>\n\n<h2><span>3. Other options?</span></h2>\n\n<p><span>Please take into account that it won\u2019t be easy to find a room on the private housing market for a short stay. Landlords are seldom prepared to sign a rental agreement for less than 12 months. But maybe you can take part in the '<em>room exchange'</em></span><span>! </span><span>The <a href=\"/node/8081\">housing officers</a> of your host institution will be happy to inform you about this system. Keep in mind that not every institution participates in this programme or have a look on the website of <a href=\"https://kot.stad.gent/en/find-a-room\">Kotatgent</a>.</span></p>\n \n </div>\n\n <div class=\"paragraph paragraph--type--image paragraph--view-mode--full\">\n <div class=\"image-gallery--wrapper single\">\n \n\n\n\n <div class=\"image-gallery js-lightbox\">\n <a\n href=\"https://stad.gent/sites/default/files/styles/gallery_full/public/media/images/20221219%20-%20DW%20-%20Te%20huur%20%28c%29%20Martin%20Corlazzoli%20COR05092-3.jpg?itok=np-3u1eN\"\n class=\"gallery-link\"\n aria-describedby=\"image-gallery__open-gallery\"\n >\n \n <figure>\n \n\n\n <picture>\n <source srcset=\"/sites/default/files/styles/wide_l/public/media/images/20221219%20-%20DW%20-%20Te%20huur%20%28c%29%20Martin%20Corlazzoli%20COR05092-3.jpg?itok=ptgzwfTX 1x, /sites/default/files/styles/wide_l_x2/public/media/images/20221219%20-%20DW%20-%20Te%20huur%20%28c%29%20Martin%20Corlazzoli%20COR05092-3.jpg?itok=cQJKQ36V 2x\" media=\"(min-width: 1680px)\" type=\"image/jpeg\" width=\"655\" height=\"437\"/>\n <source srcset=\"/sites/default/files/styles/wide_l/public/media/images/20221219%20-%20DW%20-%20Te%20huur%20%28c%29%20Martin%20Corlazzoli%20COR05092-3.jpg?itok=ptgzwfTX 1x, /sites/default/files/styles/wide_l_x2/public/media/images/20221219%20-%20DW%20-%20Te%20huur%20%28c%29%20Martin%20Corlazzoli%20COR05092-3.jpg?itok=cQJKQ36V 2x\" media=\"all and (min-width: 960px) and (max-width: 1679.9px)\" type=\"image/jpeg\" width=\"655\" height=\"437\"/>\n <source srcset=\"/sites/default/files/styles/wide_xxl/public/media/images/20221219%20-%20DW%20-%20Te%20huur%20%28c%29%20Martin%20Corlazzoli%20COR05092-3.jpg?itok=dfemImiS 1x, /sites/default/files/styles/wide_xxl_x2/public/media/images/20221219%20-%20DW%20-%20Te%20huur%20%28c%29%20Martin%20Corlazzoli%20COR05092-3.jpg?itok=pc_4bZev 2x\" media=\"all and (min-width: 768px) and (max-width: 959.9px)\" type=\"image/jpeg\" width=\"920\" height=\"613\"/>\n <source srcset=\"/sites/default/files/styles/wide_xl/public/media/images/20221219%20-%20DW%20-%20Te%20huur%20%28c%29%20Martin%20Corlazzoli%20COR05092-3.jpg?itok=bUUalHqt 1x, /sites/default/files/styles/wide_xl_x2/public/media/images/20221219%20-%20DW%20-%20Te%20huur%20%28c%29%20Martin%20Corlazzoli%20COR05092-3.jpg?itok=jRhS5oEy 2x\" media=\"all and (min-width: 576px) and (max-width: 767.9px)\" type=\"image/jpeg\" width=\"727\" height=\"485\"/>\n <source srcset=\"/sites/default/files/styles/wide_m/public/media/images/20221219%20-%20DW%20-%20Te%20huur%20%28c%29%20Martin%20Corlazzoli%20COR05092-3.jpg?itok=arxw8CSf 1x, /sites/default/files/styles/wide_m_x2/public/media/images/20221219%20-%20DW%20-%20Te%20huur%20%28c%29%20Martin%20Corlazzoli%20COR05092-3.jpg?itok=6qdSJIJM 2x\" media=\"all and (max-width: 575.9px)\" type=\"image/jpeg\" width=\"575\" height=\"383\"/>\n <img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1840\" height=\"1227\" src=\"/sites/default/files/styles/wide_xxl_x2/public/media/images/20221219%20-%20DW%20-%20Te%20huur%20%28c%29%20Martin%20Corlazzoli%20COR05092-3.jpg?itok=pc_4bZev\" alt=\"Papier met "te huur" hangt aan raam in Gent\" />\n\n </picture>\n\n\n \n \n </figure>\n</a>\n\n \n </div>\n \n </div>\n\n </div>\n" ;
