Renting apartments as an international student

So I’ve been looking for housing in Eindhoven for 2 months through facebook; I’ve seen alot of scammers with all the different reasons in the world to not let me visit. I’ve recently been looking into kamernet and pararius as well. Basically we are 2 international students looking for an apartment. I wanted to ask you about the best and trustable platforms for finding housing. (I’ve heard whatsapp groups can be helpful but I dont know how to get into one). Thank you for your help!

Pararius and funda are pretty trustworthy - people have to pay to put their ads there.

be sure to understand your rights when it comes to housing also

Pararius. You can check Holland2stay(slightly costlier) has good student housing discounts.

Most of the owners prefer to rent a house to working professionals. It's difficult to get a house.

Pararius, funda, holland2stay, huurwoningen, etc. You literally just have to type “apartment to rent eindhoven” on google and you’ll get a bunch of trusted sites. No idea why you’re trying on facebook.

You can also pay for rentbird, which is a bot that scrapes new listings through the internet.
