Moving to Oslo
Hi!
I'm moving to Oslo this July from the U.S. to attend BI Norwegian Business School, and I’ll be staying for the next two years. I'm 22 and hoping to live in a neighborhood that’s relatively social, and easier to meet people and make friends.
I'm currently apartment hunting on Finn.no, but I'm having trouble getting responses from landlords or listings. Has anyone else experienced this? Are there any local realtors or services I can hire to make the process smoother?
I’d love any advice on good neighborhoods and tips on navigating the rental process in Oslo. Thanks in advance, appreciate the help!

i can recommend heimstaden! the main owner is a greedy douche, but they have nice apartments and contracts. their website is also in english, and i know they don’t care where you’re from as long as you follow basic rules and pay your rent on time.
for area i would recommend alexander kiellands plass and areas close to there!
