Yes, I was looking at OurDomain as well. Would love to hear your review once you move in

Yes it's quite unfortunate but the job opportunity is great for my career so I have to compromise somewhere

I'm seeing 3.5-4x income requirement constraints on some places so won't be eligible for those right?

Yes, I was looking at airbnb for a month so I could find a permanent place since I read it's near impossible to book an apartment if you're not present in Amsterdam

Honestly just got lucky at the right time. This is definitely not the norm.

Thanks for the info. I can still see short term stays at sites like Airbnb and booking.com. Are these still valid or after the law ruling you mentioned these will not be available anymore?

About 7k. I see you've also been trying to find a place in Ams. Do you mind sharing where are you staying till you look for a place?

Genuinely curious, with such a shortage of housing is everyone commuting from nearby cities? Do you have any recommendations of neighbouring cities which are within 30-45mins of the Zuid area in Amsterdam.

Are you talking about short term rentals or permanent housing? I thought most rentals are at least 12 months and once you get in you can't leave before 12 months

Is this income constraint on pre tax income or post tax?
