How do I find a place to live in Chile?
We asked expats how they chose their neighborhood and found a place to live. They answered...
"There are two ways to live in Puerto Varas: in town or out of town in the parcelas. There are a lot of parcelas neighborhoods to choose from, but they all have excellent spacious houses on large pieces of land. Our neighborhood has a (private) dirt road and all of our neighbors are professionals. We feel pretty safe even though we are 3 miles from town as the crime is low and law enforcement is good. Plus, all of the neighbors are constantly in touch via whatsapp," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Puerto Varas, Chile.
"One of the best ways to find a place to live in Chile is to use online resources such as websites like Airbnb, HomeAway, and Craigslist. Additionally, you can also search for rental listings in local newspapers and magazines. Additionally, you can also contact local real estate agents who can help you find a place to live in Chile. Additionally, you can also ask friends and family who live in Chile for recommendations. Finally, you can also visit the area in person to get a better feel for the area and to find a place to live," commented one expat who made the move to Chile.
