Temporary housing: taking the time to settle in

When you arrive, you may need temporary accommodation while you explore the city and look for a permanent place to live.

Why is temporary housing useful? It allows you to take your time visiting different neighborhoods in Nanaimo and viewing different properties before choosing your permanent home.

Common options include:

• Airbnb or short-term furnished rentals.
• Hotels, hostels, or motels for a few days or weeks.
• House-sitting or pet-sitting can also be a low-cost option.
