How the service works
Cerco Alloggio is a service of orientation and support in the research of a room/flat to rent made thanks to a database of certified apartments - accessible through the link: www.cercoalloggio.com/insubria - which allows, for free, to:
- identify suitable student accommodation,
- download and compile, directly online, the lease contracts of the real estate (drawn up in accordance with the law and to protect owners and tenants)
- take advantage of a support service, provided through a digital counter, which responds to the requests of the owners of the identified properties and assists students during the period of stay at the rented property
The web platform is multilingual, searchable and also accessible for students with disabilities, allows you to view photographs and virtual tours of the apartments, highlights the rents, identify the contacts of the owners and all other useful information related to the properties.
In order to obtain a completely free consultation, the University Advisor of Accommodation is available by phone at +39 3285348192, to the email address insubria@cercoalloggio.com and on the dedicated FB page (https://www.facebook.com/cercoalloggiouninsubria)
