How do I find a place to live in Avignon?

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

"Finding a place to live in Avignon, involves several steps. First, you need to determine your budget and the type of accommodation you're looking for. This could range from a small apartment to a larger house, depending on your needs and financial situation. Next, you should research different neighborhoods in Avignon to find one that suits your lifestyle and preferences. Some areas might be closer to the city center, offering easy access to shops, restaurants, and cultural attractions, while others might be more residential and quiet. Once you have a clear idea of what you're looking for, you can start your search. There are several online platforms that list properties for rent or sale in Avignon, such as Seloger, Leboncoin, and Logic-immo. These websites allow you to filter results based on your criteria, such as price, size, location, and type of property. In addition to online searches, you might also want to consider hiring a real estate agent. They can provide valuable local knowledge, help you navigate the French property market, and assist with the negotiation and purchase process. When you find a property you're interested in, arrange a viewing. This will give you a chance to inspect the property, ask questions, and get a feel for the neighborhood. If you decide to proceed with a property, you'll need to negotiate the terms of the lease or purchase agreement, and possibly pay a deposit. Make sure to read any contracts carefully and seek legal advice if necessary. Finally, once the paperwork is completed, you can move into your new home in Avignon. Remember to set up utilities, such as electricity, water, and internet, and to register your new address with the local authorities," said one expat who made the move to Avignon.
