Italiyada ijaraga uy qidirish: Talabalar Uchun Bosqichma-Bosqich Qo’llanma

Looking for a place to live in Italy can feel overwhelming, but don’t worry — with the right approach, you’ll find a comfortable home in no time. Whether you want a shared room or your own apartment, this step-by-step guide is designed for international students, workers, and newcomers like you!

Important: Beware of Scams!

Before we start, a very important note — never send money before seeing the place or signing a contract. Scammers often post fake ads asking for deposits or rent in advance. Always verify listings, visit or request a virtual tour, and ask questions.

Step 0: Join Community Groups

Start by joining Telegram and Facebook groups — these are goldmines for finding rooms, sharing tips, and meeting people. Examples:

• All Uzbek community Telegram groups in Italy in one place: Unify Uzbek Community Groups

• City-specific housing groups (e.g., Case Studenti Torino for Turin)

• University official forums or student housing pages

Tip: Introduce yourself and say what you’re looking for.

Step 1: Define Your Needs and Budget

Before searching, ask yourself:

• Budget: What’s your maximum monthly rent including bills?

• Location: Near university, workplace, or public transport?

• Accommodation type: Shared room, single room, or entire apartment?

• Lease duration: Short-term (a few months) or long-term (1 year or more)?

Tip: Include utilities like electricity, water, internet in your budget for no surprises.

Step 2: Search on Trusted Platforms

Use well-known, reliable websites to find listings. Here’s how to start:

• Go to Idealista.it or Immobiliare.it

• Use filters: set price, city (e.g., Turin), district, type of accommodation

• For example, search “bed to rent near Politecnico di Torino” and set max price

• Save interesting ads to compare later

Tip: Look for ads with clear photos, detailed descriptions, and verified contacts.

Step 3: Understand Listing Details and Filters

Learn to read ads carefully:

• Monthly rent (check if utilities included or extra)

• Deposit (“caparra”) amount and contract type (“contratto”)

• Lease duration and notice period

• Furnished or unfurnished

• Amenities: internet, washing machine, heating

Tip: Use online translation tools for Italian terms or learn basics like “utenze” (utilities), “contratto” (contract).

Step 4: Contact the Landlord

If the listing includes a phone number, try calling or messaging the landlord or roommates directly — this is usually faster and more reliable than using platform chat systems.

If you don’t speak Italian well, use Google Translate to write your messages and send them via WhatsApp. This helps you communicate more easily and get quicker responses.

When you get in touch, make sure to ask important questions such as:

• Is the room or apartment still available?

• What is included in the rent (utilities, internet, etc.)?

• What type of contract will you sign, and is it valid for EDISU scholarship or residenza?

• How much is the deposit?

• Who will you be living with?

Tip: Clear and honest communication now helps avoid problems later.

Step 5: Visit or Request Virtual Tour

Never rent without seeing the place yourself or through a trusted virtual tour:

• Take photos and notes

• Check safety, cleanliness, and noise level

• Meet roommates if applicable

• Distance to your university or job

• Verify that everything matches the ad

Step 6: Review and Sign the Contract

Before signing:

• Read the contract carefully (lease length, payment terms, deposit)

• Check who pays for utilities

• Understand your rights and obligations

• If unsure, ask a university service, legal aid, or trusted friend for help
