I am interested to know a good one too. I've engaged an apartment finder but so far I still have yet to secure any of the apartments filed by them.

I have contacted specialized movers as recommended by some forummers (they offer apartment finding service too), but they quoted me in the range of 2000-3500 CHF and that's beyond my budget.

Hi,

What work permit you have?

I got an L permit, unfortunately. My employer actually applied for a B permit.

Hi Phing,

Could you please let me know of the apartment finding places that you have tried?  Company names and or contact people would be great, thanks

I've looked at:

1) Auris Relocation: [email protected]

2) Swiss Access: [email protected]

3) Packimpex: [email protected]

i have contacted Packimpex about 6 months ago, and can really not recommend them.

At the time, they proposed a "3 months package" for around CHF 2000.- , supposedly their cheapest service option. For that fee, their service included them screening ads and forwarding them to me via automatically generated email, plus handling the applications and submission of documents to the regies (which really is not that big of a deal to handle yourself once you have your paperwork compiled). They explicitly stated that there is no guarantee these applications would be successful, and they also said they have no privileged contacts whatsoever that might increase the chances in the application process. best of all: after 3 months, the money is lost, even if the applications have not been successful.

not a good deal in my book. but i have yet to find a better agency.

I have a flat to subrent for 4 months..pm if interested
