We’ll be moving
Last week – unexpectedly – we signed a contract for our new flat.
Our current apartment was meant as a temporary solution right from the start, because it’s too small (even for us, who are used to motorhome-small). So, we’ve been looking for a new place to rent for a couple of months now.
And we were really surprised we received an offer this time, because the competition for apartments in Düsseldorf is currently substantial – with often well over fifty parties interested. There’s a lot of demand, especially for the more affordable and desirable ones. And that was the case with this one, too. After the viewing, we were mentally preparing for another rejection.
But we were lucky this time. Maybe because we offered we could move in in March already. Who knows. It doesn’t really matter. We’re very happy to have found something and can enrol Zoe to Kindergarten now.
The apartment is in Flehe, which was our favourite suburb. It’s directly on the Rhine, not very densely populated (we can easily park our camper, for example!), yet pretty close to more urban Düsseldorf.
And so everything will go pretty quickly now. We plan to move in by the end of March.
