Information for students

You can search through the accommodation offers entered by private landlords. For example, you can specify what type of accommodation (e.g. shared flat) you are looking for. You can also specify the maximum monthly rent. You will find the landlord's contact details for each listing.

Information for landlords and landladies

Do you have a room or flat available and would like to offer young people a home? Then rent to international or national students! On the portal provided by the Studentenwerk, you can describe the accommodation you are offering and also provide information about the type of tenant or flatmate you are looking for (e.g. male or female, non-smoker, English language skills).

In order to keep the portal as clear and up-to-date as possible, we would like to ask all landlords to keep their adverts up to date and, if necessary, to delete them once a suitable tenant has been found for the room on offer.

You can post your offer in four steps:

1. Register once with your e-mail address and a password of your choice(Post a flat offer).
2. You will then automatically receive an e-mail to the address you entered. In this e-mail you will find a link with which you can confirm your registration.
3. You can now log in(Post a flat offer) and enter your offer. After you have clicked on "Send" at the end, you will receive another e-mail summarising the most important details of your offer.
4. If you want to change or delete your offer, click on "Open offer" at the bottom left of the page after registering.

In the interests of all providers and seekers and to minimise the risk of misuse of the portal, the offers will not appear online immediately, but will be checked by us beforehand. As a rule, each advert is activated within one working day.

Why is the private accommodation service particularly suitable for international students?

As the Studierendenwerk, we are aware that it is not easy for domestic students to find suitable accommodation at their place of study. However, the situation is much more difficult for international students: as a rule, they do not have the opportunity to travel to Germany for a few days to look for accommodation, but arrive directly at the start of their studies. In addition, they are often not familiar with the relevant internet portals that locals use to search. And last but not least, a lack of German language skills all too often makes it difficult to make contact. In order to support this group, which is particularly disadvantaged when it comes to finding accommodation, we have decided to set up and use the private accommodation service for international students in particular.
