How do I find a place to live in Liege?

We asked expats how they chose their neighborhood and found a place to live. They answered:

"Finding a place to live in Liege, involves several steps. First, you need to determine your budget and the type of accommodation you're looking for. This could range from a studio apartment to a larger family home. Next, you should research the different neighborhoods in Liege to find one that suits your lifestyle and needs. Some popular areas include the city center, Outremeuse, and Saint-Leonard. Once you have an idea of where you'd like to live, you can start your search. There are several online platforms that list properties for rent or sale in Liege, such as Immoweb, Zimmo, and Immovlan. These websites allow you to filter your search based on location, price, size, and other features. You can also consider hiring a real estate agent to help with your search. They can provide valuable local knowledge and help negotiate the rental or purchase agreement. When you find a property you're interested in, arrange a viewing. This will give you a chance to inspect the property and ask any questions. If you're planning to rent, you'll likely need to provide proof of income, references, and possibly a security deposit. If you're buying, you'll need to secure financing and possibly hire a notary to handle the legal aspects of the purchase. Finally, once you've found your new home and signed the necessary paperwork, you can start planning your move. This might involve hiring a moving company, setting up utilities, and changing your address with various institutions. Remember, finding a place to live can take time, so it's important to start your search well in advance of when you plan to move," said one person in Liege.
