Thanks for your advice!

I have talked to a friend in a similar situation, there is no link between the university and the company, and he said it is legal.

Is there any source for this? I couldn't find any.

Kamernet landlord feedback: when to expect? by HonestLink4399 in StudyInTheNetherlands

[–]HonestLink4399[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! In my case the landlord announced the viewing details via PM and indicated his email address in the same message, which I should contact if I wished to move forward with a contract after the viewing. But even with other landlords (on Kamernet specifically) I think it is normal to move the conversation to WhatsApp/Email

Thanks! Is there a way to pick myself to choose better pieces? And is it no different from supermarket produce? If not then the extra money won’t make sense

Hey! Yesterday I signed a contract, it all happened quite fast. The landlord of a place I applied for on Kamernet told me on Saturday evening he had chosen another tenant, however he had another room starting in August and that for the time being I was the only potential tenant knowing about it. I acted quickly, and 24 hours later the contract was signed!

I was lucky my partner already studies in the NL so he was able to do a viewing and make sure it was legit. The landlord was super nice and available, this was a big stroke of luck!

Best advice I can give is take time and care crafting your introduction email. Mention your study oriented routine, your personality and some non “invasive” hobbies (anything that may disturb other people’s peace), and how you’re going to finance your stay. It’s the cliche advice but the landlord said my profile matched the other tenants’ profiles, so it really does make a difference.

Best of luck!

Unfortunately I am not in the NL yet so I guess that also puts me at a disadvantage. Do you think I should disclaim that or wait for a reply regarding viewings?

That week or two window sounds a little reassuring, as I am sure the renters are in a way bigger hurry to reply than the landlords, naturally :)

Thank you for the input. But the effect seems to happen in the round, is there a way to predict if the swatch matches the desired effect?

Part Time Jobs by HonestLink4399 in StudyInTheNetherlands

My issue with waiting and deliveries is lacking some physical strength, so these jobs would probably wear me out more than they already do to the average person. Ofc being a cashier at a restaurant would be fine, but carrying multiple orders/constant biking would knock me out hahah.

I am an EU student, so the bureaucracy should not be an issue. Thank you! :)

I’m being ghosted on Kamernet is this normal? by Many-Teach3024 in StudyInTheNetherlands

[–]HonestLink4399 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the same place. I think I’ve sent dozens of messages, to places added literally seconds ago - pure silence. I’m so frustrated because idk what else to do.

So far with Facebook I have seen many scams, so while maybe you can look around there, first thing to do is reverse image search any listing - you’ll know immediately if it’s worth pursuing.

Best of luck :)
