What advice to expats in Marseille have about housing?
When we asked people living in Marseille about the social scene there, they described it saying...
"Expats in Marseille, advise that you should research the different neighborhoods before deciding where to live, as each has its own unique character and vibe. They recommend using a real estate agent to help navigate the housing market, as it can be quite competitive. It's also important to be aware that many apartments in Marseille are older and may not have modern amenities. Expats also suggest considering the proximity to public transportation when choosing a location, as traffic can be heavy in the city. They also recommend visiting potential homes in person before making a decision, as pictures can sometimes be misleading. Lastly, they advise to be prepared for a potentially lengthy and bureaucratic rental process, and to have all necessary documents ready in advance," commented one expat who made the move to Marseille, France.
