I have to arrange for a new home, how can I go about it?

To get a first-hand contract on a tenancy is often required, depending on the region in the country in which you live, that you have been queueing for a while. Apply to all the housing villages in your municipality. Both the municipal and housing estates of private property owners who have such.

If you are to hire in second hand, make sure that the landlord or housing association has approved the rental. If you rent the apartment without their approval, you have in principle no rights and may be evicted from the accommodation if the host or association detects it. In case of problems or reasonable rent, the renting committee can assist you. There are many second-hand rentals advertised on Blocket, apartment groups on social media such as Facebook.

The social services have a certain number of shelters at their disposal. However, these are often fewer than the people in need of them, so it can be difficult to get one assigned to you. Ask your contact at the Social Service office.

For emergency you can seek sheltered accommodation, contact your Social Service.
