Where to find classifieds

Pay attention to your search :
Make sure of the rent sum inclusive. Some classifieds or contacts will give you rents exclusive, which is not the accurate sum you will pay. Expenses can represent a considerable percentage of your rent.

Never pay for a list of rentals, as most of the units will already have been rented out. You may pay from 76 to 153 euros for a file of classifieds and not find any accommodation.

Newspaper advertisements for accommodation
- Bonjour “le 69” (free, available from 10 place Bellecour).
- Top Affaires (free, available from 50 rue de la République).
- Le Progrès, Le Dauphiné, Lyon Matin and Lyon Figaro all have a property section on Mondays. It is not worth buying all of them since they all have the same ads.
