Hello all, I recently got back to Switzerland and am starting to work soon. Unfortunately I only got a 1 year contract (that probably would get renewed next year and I’d get an unbefristete Anstellung). At the moment I’m still living at my parent’s place, but between the long way to work (1h30 with ÖV) and my parents moving at the end of the year I’m looking to rent a place. I limited myself to a budget that even if I wouldn’t be able to renew the work contract I’d still be able to pay for the apartment (with 80% of the salary, rent would be 1/3 of my income). With that in mind: How difficult is it to find an apartment with only a 1 year work contract? How do/did you handle communication about it whilst looking at an apartment? Do you have any general tips for me as I’ll be looking at an apartment on Friday? (Additional info: I’m a Swiss resident, Bürgschaft is not possible, WG would be last resort because I work shifts+ some weekends) Thanks for all the input submitted by /u/Dan_the_bearded_man
