Furnished homes, ready when you arrive
We find you somewhere to live, arrange the viewings and go through the lease with you. It costs you nothing.
There is no fee for tenants. Danish law does not allow it, and we would not want to charge one anyway.
If anyone in this market asks you for a search fee, a reservation fee, or a payment to hold an apartment for you, something is wrong. Nothing we do is paid for by the person moving in.
What you get
The parts of a Copenhagen home search that are difficult to do from abroad, or in a language you do not read yet.
Homes that fit
We look for what you actually asked for, and only show you places that are genuinely available.
Viewings from anywhere
In person once you are here, or live on video while you are still abroad.
A lease you understand
Prepared on the official Typeformular A10, and gone through with you clause by clause.
A documented handover
Photographs, meter readings and a written report. This is what protects your deposit later.
CPR guidance
What to bring to International House, in what order, and what happens next.
Someone to call
A named contact while you live there, so problems do not turn into translated emails.
From first message to keys
Your requirements
Arrival date, budget, area, how long you are staying and anything specific you need.
A shortlist
Two to four homes that match, each one confirmed as available.
Viewing and choice
You see them, you choose, and we negotiate the terms with the owner.
Lease and handover
Contract signed, deposit confirmed, and the condition of the flat documented at handover.
Settling in
Guidance on CPR registration, and someone to contact while you live there.
How renting works in Denmark
Deposit
Expect up to three months of rent as a deposit, plus prepaid rent, paid when you sign.
CPR registration
You register your address with the local authority. Without it you cannot get a CPR number or a health card.
The contract
Danish leases use an official standard form. If someone offers you something else, ask why.
Move-in inspection
The condition of the flat should be written down at handover. It decides what you can be charged for later.
