There are 2 kinds of apartment rental in Paris: furnished and non-furnished one. And now you are to think over which sort of it you really need. If you are staying here for several months in Paris, you can decide going for a furnished apartment, as in this way you do not need to buy anything, no headache, and you just need to install yourself here. But from the other hand it will be much cheaper to get a non-furnished apartment if you will stay here for a couple of years. It is easy to go to a secondhand market and find some furniture on your taste that will be appropriate for you and your wallet.

There are two means to rent an apartment in Paris, the 'do-it-yourself' way, and the 'agency' way for those persons who are rich enough to pay a month of rent extra to the agency for their service. There is no other method to find apartments Paris short term.

Of course, the company way is much easier. The only thing you have to do is to find the English speaking company that will have employees with that minimum English to understand what type of apartment you require. Do some search in the internet, take the yellow pages, and find the part 'immobiliers' (French translation for real estate) and begin calling them. The first words of yours should be 'Bonjour, parlez vous anglais?' ('Bojho, parley voo angley'), it means “Good day, do you speak English”. If there will be an answer “Yes”, you are welcome to speak on the point. You are to bear in mind that the commission for Paris short term accommodation can be from one month term to a full month.

The next “do-it-yourself” way may be the similar easy as the preceding one. Only here you will be saving quite a lot of funds. The problem what you might have here is to communicate with the lessor. For this, you may take help of a local person someone whom you knew before or somebody you have met in an internet, for instance. In the case when you do not have such opportunity, the quantity of the accommodations for you to call on will definitely diminish. But do not despair you will have a great amount of possibilities to find an English speaking lessor. And you are having got this benefit with you that quite a lot of lessors (they accept it or not) prefer giving accommodations to the 'native' English speakers.

Your search can start from the American church of Paris, a wonderful place to find other English speaking persons and for other English resources. Start by selecting the magazine 'FUSAC', you may find it just near the main gateway. (It is the greatest English speaking source for Englishmen and Americans in Paris). One more way for people who need to get short term apartment Paris is a web search.
