How to get an apartment in Düsseldorf?
I present some of the most popular apps and websites for finding an apartment in Düsseldorf. You can also look into sharing a flat with someone else.
All these websites have filters that allow you to narrow your search. You can search by type of housing, municipality, neighborhood, and postal code. You can use other filters: by price, number of rooms, number of bathrooms, extras, state of the property, and more.
You may want to try to contact the property owners directly. But if you use an agency, determine how much you will have to pay them.
In Düsseldorf, agencies sometimes want you to pay them a month’s rent just because they show you an apartment, but it depends on the country.
Baidu, Google, Naver, Sogou, Yandex, or any other search engine can be a good start for a search for an apartment or a house for rent. This could be, for example, “Apartments for rent in the Oberbilk district” or “House for sale in the Flingern district.” You can also look to share a flat with someone else.
Facebook groups can also be an option to start to see what’s around you. You can search for Facebook groups discussing Düsseldorf and apartments or houses for rent or sale.

Why live in Düsseldorf?
Düsseldorf is a German city recognized for its fashion industry and cultural culture. The Rhine River divides it, with its Altstadt (Old Town) on the east bank and newer business zones on the west. Both the St. Lambertus Church and the Schlossturm (Castle Tower) in the Altstadt originate from the 13th century. Boutique boutiques fill streets like Königsallee and Schadowstrasse.
The world’s sixth highest quality of living, a highly accessible country, an emerging digital culture, inexpensive living, a cosmopolitan culinary scene, relaxing Rhine cruises, and day visits to wine region.
Why is Düsseldorf a great place to live?
Did you know Düsseldorf has a greater standard of life than Berlin? According to a recent Mercer assessment of the greatest cities in the world to live in, Düsseldorf has the sixth highest standard of life in the world, putting it above several other more prominent cities.
Public transit, health, recreation, education, crime rates, housing, and the natural environment were among the factors. Furthermore, the real cost of living is cheaper than in many other European cities, so you get more out of life if you decide to settle down here!
The excellent level of life is one of the factors that contribute to the city’s family-friendliness. The availability of a wide range of kindergartens, playgroups, and even foreign schools, as well as the efficient German healthcare system, make it simple for families to relocate to Düsseldorf, whether from inside or outside of Europe.
The city boasts a variety of public transportation alternatives to get you where you need to go, both inside the city center (metro, tram, and bus) and to adjacent cities (commuter trains) such as Cologne, Duisburg, Essen, Wuppertal, and Dortmund. Rheinbahn, the local public transportation company, provides a choice of tickets for frequent and casual travelers to help you save money whether you’re commuting or simply visiting the city and its surrounds.
Weather permitting, the city is also quite bike-friendly, with many people commuting to work along the Rhine. If everything else fails, you may use Uber or the local MyTaxi app to get about.
Popular real estate websites in Düsseldorf.
You can look up real estate agencies that can help you. You can type “real estate agency near Oberbilk district ” on Google Maps or any other map app. There you can find a list of relevant agencies that you can contact. You can also walk around a neighborhood and look for rental signs.
Be aware that you should pay an agency when they find an apartment for you, but it depends on the country.
