Paris Flat Rentals
First of all you are to settle down 1 question, which apartments to rent Paris will be the most appropriate for you, furnished or non-furnished one. If you are staying there for several months in Paris, you may decide going for a furnished flat, as in this way you do not have to buy anything, no headache, and you just require to install yourself there. But from the other hand it will be much more economical to rent an unfurnished accommodation if you would stay here for several years. It is easy to go to a secondhand market and find some furniture on your taste that will be appropriate for you and your pocket.
There are 2 ways to rent an accommodation in Paris, the 'do-it-yourself' way, and the 'agency' method for those persons who are wealthy enough to pay a month of rent extra to the agency for their services. There are no other proposals for apartments Paris short term.
Of course, the agency method is much easier. The only thing you have to do is to find the English speaking company that will have office workers with that minimum English to get what sort of accommodation you require. First of all you are to find in yellow pages the part “immobiliers” (French translation for real estate) and then call in the companies that you will see. The first phrase of yours should be 'Bonjour, parlez vous anglais?' ('Bojho, parley voo angley'), it means “Good day, do you speak English”. If there will be a reply “Sure”, you are welcome to speak on the point. You are to bear in mind that the payment for Paris short term accommodation can be from one month period to a full month.
The “do-it-yourself” way may be also so simple one as the way with the assistance of a company. But if to compare with the previous way you will save much more funds with the help of this method. The difficulty what you might have here is to communicate with the lessor. Here, you need a help of someone who is local resident here, it can be either one of your friends or a person that you have met on the internet, for instance. If you don't have such a man you will have to find an English speaking landlord that will certainly decrease the amount of the accommodation that you will visit, but don't be afraid you will find such persons. And the basic advantage that you will have is that French landlords are willing to give their rooms for native English speakers.
Your search can start from the American church of Paris, a wonderful area to meet other English speaking persons and for other English resources. Take a journal “FUSAC” that can be seen near the main gate of the church. (It is the greatest English speaking source for Englishmen and Americans in France). And vacation apartment rental Paris may be also receive with the help of online resources.
