If you need a place in Nijmegen without signing a long lease, look at short stay and furnished rentals. Contracts are shorter and the place is ready to live in.
What to check
Contract length
Short stay contracts usually run for a fixed period. Check the minimum and maximum stay before you commit.
What's included
Ask whether utilities, internet, cleaning and municipal taxes are in the price, and how much the deposit is.
Registration
If you live in the Netherlands for more than four months, you must register with the municipality. Ask the landlord if registration at the address is allowed.
Avoid scams
Never pay before you have seen the place, in person or on a video call, and have a signed contract.

Is short stay more expensive than normal rent?
