Find student housing without stress

Finding a place to live abroad shouldn’t be complicated.

Your City Partner is a platform built for students, designed to let you search, book and pay your accommodation online, safely and transparently.

Housing made simple

With Your City Partner you can:

  • Browse verified apartments
  • Book online before arriving
  • Split rent with roommates
  • Pay monthly, automatically
  • Avoid scams and hidden surprises

Need extra help finding the right apartment?

If you want a more guided experience, Your City Partner also offers a Personalized Apartment Search Support service.

This option is designed for students who:

  • are moving for the first time
  • have specific needs (budget, location, roommates, length of stay)
  • want help choosing the best option
  • prefer human guidance instead of searching alone

How it works

With Personalized Apartment Search Support:

  • you book a one-on-one advisory session with the YCP team
  • we help you define your priorities (area, budget, timing, preferences)
  • we guide you through available options on the platform
  • we support you during the booking process

You still book and pay through the platform, but with expert guidance at every step.

Built to make your move easier

This service is optional and available for a one-time fee.

It’s ideal if you want peace of mind and a smoother relocation experience.

You search — or we search with you.
Either way, you stay in control.

How payments work

  • Each roommate pays their own share
  • Payments are automatic every month
  • No coordination between roommates
  • No stress if someone pays late

You focus on your studies. We handle the rent.

Security deposit, explained simply

  • First payment includes first month’s rent and utilities (if applicable)
  • Security deposit is requested 2–3 weeks after booking confirmation
  • Deposit is held for the duration of the stay
  • Used only in case of documented damages
  • Fully refunded if no issues occur

Clear rules. No surprises.
