How do I find a place to live in Iceland?
We asked expats how they chose their neighborhood and found a place to live. They answered...
"One of the best ways to find a place to live in Iceland is to use online resources such as websites and social media. Websites such as Leigulistinn, Bylgjan, and Airbnb are great resources for finding apartments, houses, and other rental properties. Additionally, social media sites such as Facebook and Instagram can be used to search for rental properties and connect with potential landlords. Additionally, it is possible to find rental properties through local newspapers and real estate agents," said a member in Iceland.
