Hi everyone!
I will be moving to Umeå to start my PhD on 1 September, and I'm currently looking for accommodation for myself and my partner.
I've already registered with the housing portals, but I've realized that it usually takes quite a lot of queue points to receive an offer. At the moment, I only have around 30–40 points. Does anyone know if there's any realistic chance of getting accommodation with that many points, or should I assume it's unlikely?
I'm also searching through Facebook groups and other social media platforms, but I thought I'd ask here as well. If anyone has any tips, suggestions, or knows of private landlords, rental websites, or available apartments/rooms, I'd really appreciate your advice.
Thank you in advance for any help. Looking forward to moving to Umeå and joining the community!
